When you contribute money online:
When you contribute online, the Friends of Joe Baca committee uses state-of-the-art security protocols through Verisign to protect sensitive data, such as personal information and credit card numbers. While this data is being transferred, it is protected by the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) using a 128-bit signed certificate (the highest level commercially available). Before you even register or log in to Verisign, the Verisign server checks that you're using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher. Once your information reaches Verisign, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. The Verisign servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the Internet, so your private information is available only to authorized computers.

Information on Children:
Because we care about the safety and privacy of children online, we comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA). COPPA and its accompanying FTC regulations establish United States federal law that protects the privacy of children using the Internet. We do not knowingly contact or collect personal information from children under 13. Our site is not intended to solicit information of any kind from children under 13, and we have designed our sites to block our knowing acceptance of information from children under 13 whenever age-related information is requested.
