What we collect, form by form

Joining the list

Your email. If you add them: your first and last name, mobile number and ZIP code. We also note which form you used.

Writing your lawmakers

Your name, email, street address, ZIP code, and town and your own words if you add them. We use your address to find your state House and Senate districts.

Sharing your story

Your story, and how you want it used. If you add them: your first name, email, job, island and whether we may contact you.

Signing on as a supporter

The name of your organization or business (or your own name, for community leaders), its type, island, town, website, a quote and a logo, if you add them. Also the name, email and role of the person signing.

We don’t use cookies, ad trackers or tools that follow you around the web. If we add a visit counter, it will be one that doesn’t use cookies, and we’ll name it here.

What other people see

• Letters to lawmakers. Each of your two state lawmakers gets an email with the letter, your words, and your name, street address, ZIP and email. Your email is the reply-to, so their office can write back to you, and you get a copy. Lawmakers’ offices keep their own email, which we don’t control.
• Stories. Only the way you choose: with your full name, your first name only, no name, or not at all. We check with you before we post one, and we never share your workplace in a way that could identify you.
• Supporters. Only after we confirm a sign-on, the supporters page shows the name, type, island or town, website, quote and logo. The contact person’s name and email are never shown.
• Everything else stays private. Only a few people on our team can see it.

We never sell it

We do not sell, rent, trade or give your info to anyone, including employers, businesses, political campaigns and other groups. Your boss won’t see that you signed up or wrote a letter.

A few service companies handle your info only to do a job for us, and may not use it for anything else:

• Mailchimp holds our email list and sends our emails.
• Supabase stores letters, stories and supporter sign-ons.
• Cloudflare runs this website and checks forms for spam.
• Resend delivers the letters you send to your lawmakers.
• The U.S. Census Bureau’s address lookup turns the address you type into your legislative districts.

We only share info if the law requires it, for example a court order. If that happens, we’ll tell you if the law allows.

Texts

We don’t send text messages yet. If you add your mobile number, you’re agreeing to hearing-day alerts once they start: up to 4 a month during the session, message and data rates may apply, reply STOP to cancel or HELP for help. Before the first alert we’ll text you once to confirm, and we’ll post the full text terms here.

Emails

We send a few emails a month, and up to about one a week during the legislative session (January to May). Every email has an unsubscribe link. One click and you’re off the list.

See, change or delete your info

Email info@livingwagehawaii.com with the subject “Delete my info” or “Show my info”, and tell us the email you used. We’ll do it within 30 days and write back when it’s done. You can also ask us to take down your story or your organization’s sign-on at any time. We can’t take back a letter already sent to a lawmaker’s office.

After we delete your info, we keep only a short “do not contact” note with your email, so we never message you again by mistake.

Keeping it safe

Only a few people on our team can see your info, and our accounts use two-step login. We keep it only while it’s useful for the campaign, or as long as the law requires.

Children

This site is for adults. We don’t knowingly collect info from children under 13. If you think a child sent us something, email us and we’ll delete it.

Changes to this page

If we change this page, we’ll update the date below. If a change affects how we use info you already gave us, we’ll email you first.
