Effective date: July 17, 2026 | Last updated: July 17, 2026

The Khai Tran for Carver County Committee (the “Campaign,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit khaiforcarvercounty.com (the “Site”), sign up for updates, volunteer, request a yard sign, contact us, attend or register for an event, or make a contribution.

By using the Site or providing information to us, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information we collect

Information you provide. We may collect your name, email address, phone number, mailing or residential address, volunteer interests, availability, yard-sign location or delivery instructions, event information, and any message or other information you choose to submit.

Contribution information. When you contribute, we may receive your name, contact information, contribution amount and date, transaction identifier, and any employer or occupation information required for campaign-finance reporting. Payment information is processed by our payment provider. We generally do not receive or store your full credit-card or bank-account number.

Information collected automatically. When you use the Site, our hosting, security, analytics, or advertising tools may automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location, and the date and time of your visit. These tools may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies.

  1. Respond to questions and requests.
  2. Send campaign news, event information, voting information, and other campaign communications you request or agree to receive.
  3. Coordinate volunteers, events, canvassing, phone or text outreach, and yard-sign delivery or pickup.

  5. Operate, secure, analyze, and improve the Site and campaign communications.

Email, text, and phone communications

You may unsubscribe from campaign email at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the message. If you separately consent to receive text messages, we may send recurring campaign messages to the number you provide. Consent to texts is not a condition of making a contribution or receiving campaign information. Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to stop text messages and HELP for help. You may revoke consent by any reasonable method.

How we disclose information

We may disclose information in the following circumstances:

  1. To service providers that help us host the Site, manage forms and email, process payments, provide analytics or advertising, secure systems, deliver signs, or support campaign operations.
  1. To campaign staff, consultants, and volunteers who need the information to carry out campaign activities and who are expected to handle it appropriately.
  2. To election officials, regulators, law-enforcement agencies, courts, or other parties when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or security.
  3. As part of an orderly transition, wind-down, or transfer of campaign records, subject to applicable law.

We do not sell or rent personal information for money. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their independent commercial marketing. Some analytics and advertising providers may collect information through cookies or similar technologies under their own privacy policies.

Campaign-finance disclosure

Campaign-finance law may require us to collect, retain, and report certain contributor information. For contributions that exceed applicable reporting thresholds, reports may include the contributor’s name, address, employer or occupation if self-employed, contribution amount, and contribution date. Campaign-finance reports may be made available to the public, subject to applicable data-classification, redaction, and disclosure rules. We cannot delete or withhold information that we are legally required to retain or report.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies and similar technologies help the Site function, remember preferences, measure traffic, protect against abuse, and evaluate campaign communications. You can adjust browser settings to block or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works. Third-party content, including embedded videos, maps, social-media features, or payment tools, may set its own cookies and is governed by the third party’s policies.

Data retention

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including campaign operations, contribution reporting, legal compliance, dispute resolution, security, and recordkeeping. Some campaign-finance and transaction records must be retained even after the campaign ends. When information is no longer needed, we may delete it, deidentify it, or securely dispose of it.

Data security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No website, transmission, or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can review and, when appropriate, delete it.

Your choices and requests

You may ask to review, correct, or delete personal information you provided, or withdraw a communication preference, by contacting us. We will consider and respond to requests as required by applicable law. We may need to verify your identity, and we may retain information when required by law or when reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, recordkeeping, or campaign-finance compliance.

Third-party links and services

The Site may link to or use services operated by other organizations, including payment processors and social-media platforms. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the Site, campaign practices, or law changes. We will post the updated policy on this page and revise the “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be communicated through the Site or other appropriate means.
