Deepti Garg for NHUSD Board 2026 runs this website. We're a candidate-controlled committee registered with the California Fair Political Practices Commission, FPPC ID# 1492952. Questions go to ElectDeepti@gmail.com.
This is a small local campaign. We collect very little and we don't sell any of it.
The sign-up form asks for your name, email address, phone number, ZIP code, and anything you want to tell Deepti. Whatever you type in it comes to us. Donations run on ActBlue rather than on this site, so they take your payment and passes us the contributor information the state requires. We never see your card number. Our website host keeps the ordinary server logs every website keeps: your IP address, which pages loaded, when, and what browser asked for them. Like every campaign, we also work from the public voter file, which counties collect when people register and the state releases for election purposes. It gives us names, addresses, and whether someone voted in past elections, never how they voted. It's how a candidate knows which doors to knock on. This site is for voters, and we don't knowingly collect anything from anyone under 13.
We use all of that to email you campaign updates, to text you if you asked us to, to tell whether you live in Trustee Area 5, and to answer what you write to us. Volunteers help, and they see what they need for the task in front of them and nothing else. Form submissions travel over an encrypted connection and access to the lists is kept narrow.
Donations work differently, because California campaign finance law is strict here. Give a total of $100 or more in a calendar year and we have to report your name, street address, occupation, and employer on Form 460, filed with the Alameda County Registrar of Voters and open to anyone who wants to read it. Smaller donations aren't itemized, though we still record them. Contribution records stay as long as the law says they have to. For everything else there's no fixed schedule.
We don't sell, rent, or trade your information, and we don't hand your email address or phone number to another campaign, a party committee, or a vendor for their own use. We haven't done it and we're not planning to start. The public reporting above is the one place your information leaves us, and the law requires it. We'd also turn something over if a court required it.
The campaign hasn't put Google Analytics or any advertising pixel on this site, we don't build profiles of visitors, and we don't follow anyone from here to anywhere else, so a Do Not Track signal has nothing here to act on. The site runs on a platform called RUN!, which like most platforms may set cookies and count visits as part of serving pages, and we're asking them for the specifics. This site also links out to ActBlue, Facebook, and Instagram, and once you've left, their rules apply and ours stop.
To come off the email list, reply to any email and tell us to stop, or write to ElectDeepti@gmail.com, since our emails don't carry an unsubscribe link yet. A person reads it and you're off. Texts have their own terms, and STOP works on any of them. The California Consumer Privacy Act covers businesses far larger than this campaign will ever be, so it doesn't apply to us, but email us anyway and we'll tell you what we have on you, fix it, or delete it, apart from the records campaign finance law makes us keep.
If we change this policy we'll change the date at the top.
