YOUR INFO

What we collect

When you use this site you may provide personal information in the following ways:

  • The community survey asks for your opinions on local issues. It does not require your name or contact information unless you choose to provide it.
  • The volunteer sign-up form collects your name, email address, phone number (optional).
  • The lawn sign request form collects your name, street address, email address, and phone number.
  • The site may collect standard anonymous analytics data such as page visits and traffic sources through tools like Google Analytics. This data does not identify you personally.

How it is stored

The community survey on this site is powered by Tally. Tally uses IP address data to limit duplicate responses. No personally identifying information is collected or associated with survey responses.

The volunteer and lawn sign request forms are powered by Google Forms. Submission data is stored in Google’s secure infrastructure and accessed only by the campaign team. Campaign contact lists are managed privately and no data is stored on unsecured personal devices or shared externally.

How long we keep it

Volunteer and contact information will be retained for the duration of the 2026 municipal election campaign and deleted within 90 days of election day unless you have specifically asked to remain on a contact list for future communications.

Survey data will be retained for the duration of John’s time in public office, as stated on the survey page. It is used on an ongoing basis to understand community sentiment. You may request removal of any response you have submitted.
