Privacy Policy – Win the Whole Thing PAC

Win the Whole Thing PAC ("the PAC," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals who visit our website and support our work. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights with respect to that information. By using our website at winthewholething.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of personal information:

Contact Information: Your name, email address, mailing address, and phone number when you donate, sign up for updates, or contact us.
Donation & Payment Information: Your contribution amount, payment method details (processed securely through our payment processor — we do not store full credit card numbers), employer, and occupation as required by federal law.
Usage Data: IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time spent on our site, collected automatically via standard web server logs and analytics tools.
Communications: Any messages, feedback, or correspondence you send to us.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

Processing Donations: To complete and confirm your contribution, provide receipts, and manage your donor record.
FEC Compliance: To meet our mandatory reporting obligations to the Federal Election Commission (see Section 3 below).
Communications: To send you updates about our work, campaign news, and opportunities to get involved. You may opt out at any time (see Section 7).
Website Operation: To maintain, improve, and secure our website and digital infrastructure.
Legal Compliance: To comply with applicable federal and state laws governing political committees and fundraising.

3. FEC Disclosure Requirements

Federal law requires Win the Whole Thing PAC to publicly disclose all contributions of $200 or more to the Federal Election Commission. This information — including your name, mailing address, occupation, employer, and contribution amount — becomes part of the public FEC record and is available at fec.gov.

This is a legal obligation, not a choice. By making a contribution of $200 or more to Win the Whole Thing PAC, you acknowledge that your information will be reported to the FEC and made available to the public as required by the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA), 52 U.S.C. § 30101 et seq.

Contributions under $200 in aggregate are not required to be itemized and disclosed to the FEC, but we still maintain records of all contributions for internal compliance purposes.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share information only in the following limited circumstances:

Service Providers: Trusted vendors who assist with payment processing, email delivery, or website hosting — bound by confidentiality obligations and limited to processing data only as we instruct.
Legal Requirements: When required by law, including FEC disclosure obligations, or in response to a valid legal process.
Allied Political Organizations: We may, from time to time, share contact information with allied Democratic political committees, campaigns, or organizations for electoral purposes. You may opt out of this sharing by contacting us at privacy@winthewholething.com.

5. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Payment information is handled through PCI-compliant payment processors. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, meet our FEC recordkeeping requirements (which mandate retaining records for three years after the relevant election), and comply with applicable law.

7. Your Choices & Opt-Out Rights

You have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

Email Unsubscribe: Click the "unsubscribe" link in any email we send you, or email us at privacy@winthewholething.com to be removed from our communications list.
Data Sharing Opt-Out: To opt out of sharing your information with allied political organizations, contact us at privacy@winthewholething.com.
Access & Correction: You may request access to or correction of your personal information by contacting us. Note that FEC-reported information cannot be retroactively removed from public filings.

Please note that even if you opt out of communications, we are still legally required to maintain records of your contributions and report applicable donations to the FEC.

8. Cookies & Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to understand how visitors use our site and to improve the user experience. You can instruct your browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Disabling cookies may affect some functionality of the site.

Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately.
