Privacy Policy + Terms of Service

Text Messaging and Mobile Information

If you opt in to receive text messages from the Orange Democratic Town Committee, we collect your mobile phone number and a record of your consent, including the date and time you opted in.

We use this information to send you the text messages you signed up for and to manage your preferences.

Your mobile information will not be sold or shared with third parties for promotional or marketing purposes. All of the categories of information described in this policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

We will not share your opt-in to an SMS campaign with any third party for purposes unrelated to providing you with the services of that campaign. We may share your personal data, including your SMS opt-in or consent status, with third parties that help us provide our messaging services, including but not limited to platform providers, phone companies, and any other vendors who assist us in the delivery of text messages.

Message frequency may vary. Standard message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, and you can reply HELP for help. You can also contact us at [CONTACT EMAIL] or [CONTACT PHONE].

If any other part of this policy conflicts with this section, this section controls for mobile phone numbers and text message consent.

Questions? Contact us at [CONTACT EMAIL] or 203-520-0331.

What you're signing up for

When you sign up, you agree to receive text messages from us about event reminders and election updates. This may include things like meeting and event notices, voting dates and deadlines, and news about local elections in Orange.

How often we text

Message frequency may vary.

What it costs

We don't charge for our texts. Standard message and data rates from your mobile carrier may apply, depending on your plan. Check with your carrier if you have questions about your charges.

No donation requests

Donations will not be solicited by text message.

How to stop

You can opt out at any time. Reply STOP to any message and we'll stop texting you. You may get one last message confirming that you've been unsubscribed. If you want to sign up again later, you can do so on our Text Updates page.

How to get help

Reply HELP to any message, or contact us at [CONTACT EMAIL] or 203-520-0331.

Your privacy

We take your privacy seriously. We will not share mobile information with third parties for promotional or marketing purposes. To learn more about what we collect and how we use it, read our Privacy Policy.

Carriers

Mobile carriers aren't responsible for delayed or undelivered messages. Message delivery isn't guaranteed.

Your responsibilities
Sign up only with a mobile number that you own or are authorized to use.
Tell us if your number changes or you no longer use it, so messages don't go to someone else. You can reply STOP or contact us.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we'll post the new version on this page with a new "last updated" date. If you keep receiving our texts after a change, that means you accept the updated terms.

Ending the program

We may change or end the text program at any time.
