Privacy Policy

In providing the online election services, OpaVote requests information about the election including but not limited to the manager's name and email address, the names of candidates, and the email addresses of voters. During the voting process, OpaVote may record, for each voter, whether the voter has voted, whether the voter has opted out of receiving election emails or reported the election email as spam, the IP address used by the voter, and other information provded in the HTTP headers (to deter fraudulent votes). For elections and polls conducted on Facebook, OpaVote may store a voter's Facebook id number to prevent duplicate voting and may post to a voter's wall. Collectively, this information is "Election Information."

OpaVote will not share the Election Information with any third party, except that OpaVote may:

• provide Election Information to an election manager;
• provide Election Information as required by a judicial order or other legal obligation;
• provide Election Information to a third party to investigate or remedy potential violations of the Terms and Conditions or other applicable law; and
• publicize the fact that your organization used OpaVote along with information about your election (e.g., date, election title, contest titles).

After an election manager deletes an election from OpaVote, all email addresses, votes, and election results are permanently removed.

OpaVote uses Google App Engine and Amazon Simple Email Service. Google and Amazon may record information concerning your use of OpaVote. Please see Google's Privacy Policy and Amazon's Privacy Policy for more information.
