Privacy Policy

Welcome to the official website of Black Americans For A Better Future. ("BAFBF"). BAFBF knows your right to privacy is important, especially online. This privacy policy has been created to answer any questions you may have regarding BAFBF's data collection and protection policies.

What information is being collected at www.BAFBF.org?

The only personal information collected is information you give us. In an effort to grow our Republican grassroots community online, BAFBF may ask you to submit information. This information will be used to provide you with information about online events, personal appearances, TV appearances, talking points, and other Republican related information. You do not have to provide this information – we only ask that you do so that we can better communicate with you! Additionally, when you offer your personal information and/or choose to participate in our volunteer efforts, we use your information to personalize and customize Web pages and emails from BAFBF to you. We may also use the information to credit individuals for their actions in support of BAFBF and Republican candidates. We're thankful for your support, and we want to recognize you! Some information must be collected when you make a contribution. When you make contributions to BAFBF that aggregate to more than $200, federal law requires us to use our "best efforts" to collect your name, mailing address, employer, and occupation. Credit card information provided may be stored at the donor's option. In the event a donor exercises that option, all credit card information will be stored with BAFBF's secure third party vendor, certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1, the most stringent level of certification. Any information shared is done at the donor's own risk.

We ask that children under 18 do not submit their information. In accordance with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), www.BAFBF.org does not knowingly collect information from children.

BAFBF may provide your email address or other personal information to authorized third parties required to deliver a particular service. These third parties may not use said information for any other purpose than to carry out the services they are performing for BAFBF.
