Our Commitment to Website Security
The George Morgan for North Miami Mayor campaign is committed to protecting the security, privacy, and integrity of information transmitted through our official campaign website, www.VoteGeorgeForMayor.com.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and security safeguards designed to help protect information submitted through this website from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or destruction.
This notice explains how Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security technologies are used on our website and provides important information regarding online security.
SSL/TLS Encryption
Our website is designed to use SSL/TLS encryption to help secure information transmitted between a visitor’s browser and our website.
When SSL/TLS protection is active, visitors will generally see:
- https:// at the beginning of the website address
- A security or padlock indicator in the browser, depending on the browser and device
- An encrypted connection between the visitor’s browser and the website server
Encryption helps reduce the risk that information transmitted through the website can be intercepted or read by unauthorized third parties while it is in transit.
Information That May Be Protected
Depending on the services available through the website, SSL/TLS encryption may help protect information submitted through:
- Contact forms
- Volunteer registration forms
- Campaign email signup forms
- Text-message signup forms
- Election-alert registrations
- Event registration forms
- Merchandise or campaign shop pages
- Donation pages
- Newsletter subscriptions
- Surveys or questionnaires
- Other forms provided through the campaign website
Although encryption provides an important layer of protection, no website, network, server, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Campaign Donations and Payment Security
If campaign contributions, purchases, or other payments are accepted through this website, payment transactions may be processed by an independent third-party payment processor.
The George Morgan campaign may not directly receive or store complete credit-card or debit-card information when those transactions are handled by an outside payment provider.
Third-party processors maintain their own privacy, security, payment-processing, and data-retention practices. Visitors should review the applicable terms and privacy policies presented by the payment provider when completing a transaction.
Campaign contributions are also subject to applicable federal, state, and local campaign-finance laws, reporting requirements, contribution limits, eligibility requirements, and disclosure obligations.

- First and last name
- Email address
- Telephone number

The collection and use of personal information should also be reviewed together with the campaign’s Privacy Policy and any other applicable website policies.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, remember visitor preferences, understand website usage, improve performance, measure campaign communications, and provide certain website features.
Additional information regarding cookies should be reviewed in the campaign’s Cookie Policy.
Third-Party Websites and Services
This website may contain links to third-party websites or may integrate services provided by outside companies, including payment processors, social-media platforms, email providers, texting platforms, analytics services, mapping services, merchandise providers, or other technology companies.
The George Morgan campaign does not control the security practices, content, privacy policies, or availability of independent third-party websites and services.
A link to another website does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of that website, its policies, or its security practices. Visitors should independently review the privacy and security policies of any third-party website they access.
Social Media Links
The campaign website may provide links to official campaign accounts on social-media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, X/Twitter, YouTube, Truth Social, BlueSky, TikTok, or other services.
When a visitor leaves our website and accesses a social-media platform, that platform’s own privacy, security, cookie, tracking, and data-use policies will apply.
Email and Text Message Security
Email and standard SMS text messaging are not necessarily encrypted in the same manner as information transmitted through an SSL/TLS-secured webpage.
Visitors should avoid sending highly sensitive personal, financial, banking, medical, password, Social Security, or other confidential information through ordinary email, text message, or unsecured communication channels.
The campaign will never request a visitor’s account password through the website.
Phishing and Fraud Protection
Visitors should be cautious of fraudulent websites, emails, text messages, social-media accounts, or individuals claiming to represent George Morgan or the George Morgan for North Miami Mayor campaign.
Before providing personal or financial information, visitors should confirm that they are interacting with an authorized campaign website or communication channel.
Official campaign website
www.VoteGeorgeForMayor.comVisitors should never provide passwords, full Social Security numbers, bank-login credentials, or other highly sensitive information in response to an unsolicited communication claiming to originate from the campaign.
No Guarantee of Absolute Security
The campaign takes reasonable measures to protect its website and information transmitted through it. However, no security system is completely immune from cyberattacks, unauthorized access, malware, service interruptions, technological failures, human error, or other security risks.
Accordingly, the George Morgan campaign cannot guarantee absolute security or uninterrupted operation of the website. Visitors use the website and electronically transmit information at their own reasonable discretion.
Visitor Responsibilities
Visitors can help protect themselves by:

Security Incident Response
If the campaign becomes aware of a security incident involving information under its control, it may investigate the incident, take appropriate security measures, work with technology providers, and provide notices when required by applicable law.
The nature and timing of any notification will depend upon the circumstances of the incident and applicable legal requirements.
Children’s Privacy
This campaign website is intended primarily for individuals interested in campaign information, civic engagement, volunteering, elections, and political participation.
The website is not designed for the intentional collection of sensitive personal information from young children. Parents or guardians who believe a child has submitted personal information may contact the campaign to request review or deletion when appropriate.
