The Catch 22 Harper Conservatives Campaign Co-ordinator ("Network
Creator") created the Catch 22 website ("our site") on a social
networking platform operated by Ning, Inc. ("Ning"). Your account
with Ning and your activity on our site are governed by Ning's
terms of service and
privacy policy.
This Catch 22 Privacy Statement explains how the Network Creator
and any administrator designated by the Network Creator ("we",
"us", "our") may collect, use and disclose your personal
information that (a) Ning provides to us, and (b) you voluntarily
choose to provide to us.
Collection
a) Ning Member Data
"Ning Member Data" is data collected by Ning and includes required
information you provide to join Ning (i.e. your name, birthdate,
email address, and password) and optional information you choose to
provide on your profile page (e.g. your gender, location, country,
and photo).
Ning discloses your Ning Member Data (except password) to us, and
this information can be accessed by the Network Creator and
designated administrators in our site's management settings.
Certain Ning Member Data may also be displayed on your "
My Page" personal profile page and viewable by
other members. You can control which information is displayed on
your profile (see "
Your Choices"
below).
b) Network Member Data
"Network Member Data" is additional personal information that you
voluntarily choose to provide to us, including your answers to
profile questions (e.g. your electoral district, phone number, and
postal code).
Note that any information you provide to us on our site you also
share with Ning. See Ning's
terms of service and
privacy policy for details of our relationship with Ning and
how Ning handles your personal information.
Your electoral district is displayed on your profile page, and may
be viewed by "your friends" or "all members" according to your
privacy settings
(see "
Your
Choices" below).
Your phone number and postal code are designated as "private" and
are viewable on your profile page only by you, the Network Creator
and designated admininstrators.
You can access and edit certain Network Member Data in your
profile settings
(see "
Your
Choices" below).
c) Donations
We use PayPal for donation services. When you donate, PayPal
provides us with your name, email address and contact information.
We do not collect you credit card or banking information.
Use
We use your personal information for organising and communicating
with you about the Catch 22 campaign.
We may use your electoral district (riding) and postal code to
determine your location and contact you about campaign activities
and volunteer opportunities in your area.
We will not use your birthdate in a manner that identifies you. If
your birthdate is used by us, it will be used in the aggregate for
statistical purposes only.
Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not
disclose your information to third parties without your consent,
except as outlined on this statement.
We may share your personal information with third party application
developers and providers so that they may provide services to us
consistent with this statement and our site.
Contacting You
We may provide your contact information (name, email address, phone
number, riding and postal code) to riding co-ordinators and group
moderators so they can contact you about campaign activities and
volunteer opportunities in your area.
If you do not wish to be contacted by phone about the Catch 22
campaign, please do not provide us with your phone number (if you
have already done so, please remove your phone number from your
profile settings
and
contact us to let us know of your choice so we can update our
records).
The Catch 22 campaign co-ordinator, riding co-ordinators,
designated administrators, and group moderators may contact you by
email about the Catch 22 campaign. If you do not wish to receive
these messages, please set your
email notifications
accordingly.
The Catch 22 campaign co-ordinator, designated administrators, and
members that you have added as "friends", may also contact you by
internal personal message.
Your Choices
You may choose whether your personal information is viewable by the
general public and other members of our site.
In your
profile
settings, you can access and edit your Ning Member Data and
Network Member Data, and you have some control over what
information is displayed on your profile page. For example, you can
choose not to display your birthdate, age, and gender.
In your
privacy
settings, you can limit access to your profile page. For
example, you can choose to have your profile page viewable by all
members or "only friends".
Regardless of the above, the Network Creator and designated
administators will continue to have access to your information for
as long as you remain a member of our site.
If you wish, you may discontinue being a member of our site by
selecting "Leave Catch 22 Harper Conservatives Campaign" from your
profile
settings.
