Additionally, we collect (non-opt-in) information about your usage of our website, including the type of browser you use, activity on the site (such as access times, pages viewed, and links clicked), device information of the computer or mobile device you use to access the site, your IP address, and the page you visited before navigating to our website.

Once you have completed the opt-in form, any personal data you submit may be utilized by the Five Rivers MetroParks Levy Committee, which operates this website to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our website and its functionality.

  • Respond to your emails, submissions, comments, questions, or requests; offer feedback or support; and otherwise contact you about your participation in the campaign and use of the website.

  • Communicate with you about our campaign, such as relaying information relevant to this ballot issue or candidate, sharing important voting procedures and deadlines, and informing you of volunteer opportunities, events, activities, and campaign news.

  • Solicit volunteers, donations, and support for the Five Rivers MetroParks Levy Committee and its relevant ballot concerns.

  • Contact you if local, state, or federal election laws require additional information, such as in the case of an in-kind or monetary donation.

  • Remind you to vote, register to vote, assist you in finding registration information, polling locations, or campaign events near you.

  • Share your information with campaign staff, volunteers, and consultants who need such information to carry out work on behalf of the Five Rivers MetroParks Levy Committee.


We may disclose your personal information to third-party service providers who assist us in providing our services, such as hosting providers, payment processors, and analytics providers. We may also disclose your personal information if required by law or to protect our legal rights.
