The Office of Assemblywoman Maureen Rowan respects your privacy and is committed to handling information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, stored, and shared when you visit this official legislative website or communicate with the Office through the website.

This policy applies only to the official legislative website of Assemblywoman Maureen Rowan, representing New Jersey Legislative District 2. It does not apply to any campaign, political committee, campaign website, personal social media account, or third-party website.

  • Information included in a contact form or request for assistance
  • Documents or other information you choose to provide

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account information, medical records, immigration documents, government-issued identification numbers, or other highly sensitive information through a general website form.

When sensitive information is required to assist with a constituent matter, the Office may provide instructions for submitting it through a more appropriate channel.

When you visit the website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser and device type
  • Operating system
  • Referring website
  • Pages visited
  • Date and time of the visit
  • General website usage and performance information

This information may be collected through server logs, cookies, analytics services, security tools, or similar technologies.

How We Use Information

The Office may use information collected through the website to:

  • Respond to questions, comments, and constituent requests
  • Help residents identify and access government services
  • Process requests for legislative or constituent assistance
  • Confirm whether a resident is located within Legislative District 2
  • Send legislative updates and office communications requested by subscribers
  • Provide information about public resources, events, and legislative activity
  • Improve the website’s content, accessibility, security, and performance
  • Prevent spam, fraud, misuse, or security threats

The Office will seek to collect only the information reasonably necessary to fulfill these purposes.

Separation From Campaign Activity

This website is an official legislative resource and is maintained separately from any campaign or political activity.

Information submitted through this website is intended for official legislative and constituent-service purposes. It will not automatically be added to a campaign, fundraising, or political mailing list.

The Office will not use information submitted through this website to solicit political contributions. Individuals who wish to receive campaign or political communications must separately subscribe through the appropriate campaign or political channel.

The legislative website does not link directly to campaign donation pages.

Email Communications

Residents may voluntarily subscribe to receive legislative news, district updates, public-resource information, and other official communications.

Newsletter subscriptions are separate from general contact and constituent-assistance requests. Submitting a contact form does not automatically subscribe a person to legislative email updates unless the person separately selects that option.

Subscribers may unsubscribe at any time by using the link included in an email. Unsubscribing from general legislative updates will not prevent the Office from responding to a request or continuing necessary communication regarding a matter initiated by the resident.

The Office may use a third-party email service provider to manage subscriptions and distribute communications.

Constituent Communications and Public Records

Information submitted to the Office may be retained in accordance with applicable records-management requirements.

New Jersey law provides protections for certain communications and information exchanged between legislators and constituents. Information may also be disclosed when required or permitted by applicable law, court order, governmental process, or legitimate administrative need.

The Office cannot guarantee that every communication will remain confidential. Residents should avoid submitting sensitive information through the website unless specifically requested by an authorized member of the Office.

Cookies and Website Analytics

The website may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, security, analytics, and performance.

Cookies are small files stored on a device that help a website remember information or understand how visitors use the site. The website may use:

  • Essential cookies needed for website operation and security
  • Analytics cookies used to understand traffic and website usage
  • Preference cookies used to remember certain visitor choices
  • Spam-prevention and form-security technologies

The Office may use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the website. These services may collect technical and usage information under their own privacy policies.

Visitors may adjust browser settings to block or delete cookies. Some website features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

The legislative website is not intended to use campaign advertising pixels, political retargeting tools, or campaign audience tracking.

Third-Party Service Providers

The Office may use third-party providers to support website hosting, security, analytics, email distribution, form processing, spam prevention, accessibility, maintenance, and other technical functions.

These providers may process limited information on behalf of the Office as necessary to provide their services. They may also maintain their own privacy policies and terms.

The Office seeks to limit third-party access to information and use providers that maintain reasonable privacy and security practices.

External Links

The website may include links to state agencies, local governments, nonprofit organizations, community resources, and other external websites.

These links are provided for informational and public-service purposes. The Office does not control and is not responsible for the content, accessibility, security, or privacy practices of external websites.

Visitors should review the privacy policy of any external website before submitting personal information.

Data Security

The Office and its service providers use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

These safeguards may include:

  • Secure website connections
  • Access controls
  • Multifactor authentication
  • Website security monitoring
  • Software and plugin updates
  • Backups
  • Spam and malware protection
  • Restricted administrative access

No website, email system, electronic transmission, or storage platform can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

  • Respond to a constituent request
  • Maintain a record of office communications
  • Provide subscribed email communications
  • Support website security and administration
