Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting your privacy. The following discloses our Privacy Policy. This policy is in effect for all portions of the www.bradjonesonline.com web site, and for all the web pages, newsletters, discussion lists, and announcement lists owned and operated by Representative Brad Jones.

We promise that we will employ reasonable efforts to collect and use your personal information only in ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy.

What information are you collecting and how are you collecting it?

Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and IP address - a set of numbers that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol". When a visitor requests a page from this website, our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, but do not collect and evaluate this information for individuals. Our web servers do not record e-mail addresses of the visitors.

What are cookies?

Occasionally, this web site may send a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Cookies do not damage your system. We use cookies to identify which areas of this website you have visited, so the next time you visit, those pages may be readily accessible. We may also use cookies to ascertain how many times you've visited a particular page. We may use this information to better personalize the content that you see on our site.

You have the choice of accepting cookies by changing the settings of your browser. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our site and other Web sites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.

What other information do you request?

We may ask you to provide your e-mail address or mailing address for the purposes of conducting a survey or to provide additional services (such as constituent service, e-mail newsletters, announcement lists or information about new services). Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested. We maintain a strict "No-Spam" policy that means that we do not intend to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to a third party.

Should you request information or assistance from Representative Brad Jones, you may be asked to provide certain personal information to facilitate a prompt and effective response. This information may be shared with staff in the Office of Representative Brad Jones and, if appropriate, with relevant government or private agencies, depending on the circumstances of your request. Records of this information and your communications may be retained on file in the Office of Representative Brad Jones in the normal and ordinary course of business. We will use reasonable precautions to protect the privacy of such information in all other respects and to limit its disclosure to those persons who are necessary to generate an appropriate response to you.

Additionally, we may from time to time send e-mails or other correspondence announcing new services offered by Representative Brad Jones, or updating you as to the status of matters about which you have inquired previously. You may opt out of these communications at any time.

When you sign up for a service or newsletter, your name or alias is recorded solely for purposes of maintaining your account within our client base or as a subscriber to our forthcoming newsletters.

Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third parties?

Representative Brad Jones, his agents and servants will disclose personal information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:

  1. Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on Representative Brad Jones, his agents or servants.
  2. Protect and defend the rights or property of the network of sites, or visitors to www.bradjonesonline.com.
  3. Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal notice, or the rights of third parties.
  4. Reasonably prevent a violation of the law, the legal notice, or the rights of third parties.
  5. Co-operate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities.

We use reasonable precautions to keep the information disclosed to us secure. Representative Brad Jones, his agents and servants are not responsible in their personal or representative capacities for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties which receive the information.

What else should I know about my privacy when online?

The Representative Brad Jones website contains many links to other Web sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. We do not share any of the individual personal information you provide with the sites to which www.bradjonesonline.com links. Please refer to those sites for their privacy policy.

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists, or elsewhere - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your personal information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.

Your Consent to This Agreement

By using our website and our services, you consent to the collection and use of information by Representative Brad Jones, his agents and servants as specified above. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we disclose it.
