Stewart Digital Affairs PRIVACY NOTICE

Last updated: August 18, 2026

Stewart Digital Affairs (“Stewart Digital Affairs,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information when you visit https://stewartdigitalaffairs.com, communicate with us, request information, subscribe to email communications, or use services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”).

Stewart Digital Affairs is located at 5055 Canyon Crest Drive, Riverside, California 92508. You may contact us at info@stewartdigitalaffairs.com or 562-212-4312.

1. Personal information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect the following categories of personal information.

Information you provide directly

  • Contact information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, organization, and job title.

  • Information you submit through a contact, consultation, registration, or email-subscription form.

  • Communications you send to us, including requests, questions, feedback, and customer-service correspondence.

  • Account or service information when applicable.

  • Commercial and transaction information, such as services requested, considered, or purchased and related billing records.

  • Payment information submitted in connection with a purchase. Payment-card information may be processed directly by a payment processor rather than stored by us.

  • Professional information that you voluntarily provide in connection with a business inquiry or employment application.

  • Any other information you choose to provide.

If you provide personal information about another person, you represent that you have authority to provide it and have given any notice or obtained any consent required by law.

Information collected automatically

When you use our Services, we and our service providers may automatically collect:

  • Device and network information, such as IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, and Internet service provider.

  • Usage information, such as referring pages, pages viewed, links clicked, dates and times of visits, and interactions with the Services or our emails.

  • Approximate location inferred from an IP address.

  • Information collected through cookies, pixels, web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies.

Information from clients and other lawful sources

In providing political consulting, audience analysis, advertising, research, or related professional services, we may process information supplied by clients or obtained from public records, governmental records, voter files, consumer-data providers, analytics providers, advertising networks, demographic-data providers, or other lawful sources. Such information may include identifiers, demographic or modeled attributes, geographic information, political or civic information, and other audience or campaign-related information.

Marketing-list restriction. Information obtained from a client, public record, voter file, consumer database, data broker, partner, or other third party is not added to an email marketing list unless the individual has separately given Stewart Digital Affairs clear, explicit, and provable consent to receive the specific category of communications. We do not use our email service providers to send marketing email to purchased, rented, scraped, borrowed, appended, or otherwise acquired third-party email lists. Merely appearing in a database, public record, voter file, client file, or business directory does not constitute consent to receive our marketing email.

2. How we use personal information

We may use personal information to:

  • Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Services.

  • Respond to inquiries and provide customer service.

  • Schedule consultations and communicate about requested or contracted services.

  • Process transactions, payments, and billing.

  • Create and administer accounts when applicable.

  • Send transactional or administrative messages, such as confirmations, service notices, security alerts, receipts, and responses to user-initiated requests.

  • Send marketing, newsletter, event, or informational emails only when the recipient has provided the consent described in Section 3.

  • Authenticate, deliver, monitor, and improve email communications.

  • Perform political consulting, audience analysis, advertising, research, communications, and related professional services for clients.

  • Analyze use of the Services and measure the performance of content, advertising, and communications.

  • Personalize content and advertising as permitted by law.

  • Detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, and unlawful activity.

  • Protect our rights, property, users, clients, and others.

  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

  • Evaluate employment or contractor applications.

  • Complete a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar corporate transaction.

We may also use aggregated or deidentified information that cannot reasonably identify an individual, subject to applicable law.

3. Email communications and consent

Marketing email consent

We send marketing and informational emails through our email service providers only to individuals who have affirmatively requested those communications or otherwise provided clear, explicit, and provable consent to receive them from Stewart Digital Affairs.

Our marketing-email signup process:

  • Clearly identifies Stewart Digital Affairs as the sender.

  • Clearly describes the topic or nature of the requested communications.

  • Requires an affirmative action by the subscriber.

  • Does not use a consent checkbox that is selected by default.

  • Uses a confirmed single opt-in or double opt-in process. Where double opt-in is used, the subscriber must confirm the subscription through a verification email before receiving marketing messages.

Submitting a general inquiry does not automatically subscribe a person to unrelated marketing communications. Consent to receive communications from another candidate, committee, client, organization, vendor, or third party is not treated as consent to receive Stewart Digital Affairs marketing communications unless the consent expressly covers Stewart Digital Affairs and the applicable topic.

Consent records

We maintain records reasonably sufficient to demonstrate permission to send marketing email. These records may include:

  • The email address provided.

  • The date and time consent was obtained.

  • The form, webpage, event, or other source through which consent was collected.

  • The consent language and subscription topic presented at signup.

  • Relevant IP address or technical information.

  • Confirmation status and date, when a confirmation process is used.

  • The date, method, and scope of any withdrawal of consent.

We may use these records to investigate complaints and demonstrate compliance with applicable law and our email-service providers’ requirements.

Unsubscribing and suppression

Every marketing email sent through our email service providers includes a clear, conspicuous, and functional unsubscribe link and a link to this Privacy Policy. Recipients may also request removal by emailing info@stewartdigitalaffairs.com.

We honor unsubscribe requests without undue delay. When a recipient unsubscribes, reports a message as spam, or otherwise withdraws marketing consent, we suppress the address from future marketing communications covered by that request. We also suppress addresses associated with hard bounces and follow our service providers’ requirements concerning repeated delivery failures and complaints.

We may retain limited information on a suppression list so that an unsubscribed, bounced, or complaining address is not inadvertently added back to a marketing list. A person will not be resubscribed unless the person later provides fresh, affirmative, and verifiable consent.

Transactional and administrative messages that are necessary to complete a requested transaction, provide an existing service, maintain security, or respond to a user-initiated request may not include an unsubscribe link where permitted by law. We do not add promotional content to a message classified as transactional when doing so would change its primary purpose.

Sender identification and replies

Our emails accurately identify the sender. The From, To, and Reply-To fields use accurate domain names and email addresses. When we send on behalf of a client or related organization using a different validated domain, the message clearly identifies the responsible sender and explains the relationship where required. Marketing messages include a valid physical postal address and a working method for contacting the sender.

Recipients may reply to our emails or contact us using the information in this Privacy Policy.

Email performance and list hygiene

We and our email providers may process delivery, bounce, block, complaint, unsubscribe, open, and click information to operate communications, maintain list quality, investigate abuse, and protect sender reputation. We monitor email performance and stop sending as appropriate to recipients who unsubscribe, complain, hard bounce, or repeatedly fail delivery.

4. How we disclose personal information

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy:

  • Service providers and contractors. Vendors that support hosting, information technology, security, analytics, payment processing, customer service, professional services, advertising operations, direct mail, email delivery, consent management, suppression processing, and other business operations.

  • Email service providers. We use third-party email service providers to transmit, authenticate, monitor, and manage email. These providers may process email addresses, sender and recipient information, message content, IP addresses, consent-related information, delivery events, engagement events, bounces, blocks, complaints, and unsubscribe activity on our behalf.

  • Clients. In connection with political consulting, advertising, audience analysis, or other contracted services, we may disclose information and analysis to the client for whom the work is performed, subject to applicable agreements and law.

  • Advertising and analytics providers. Providers that help measure activity, deliver or assess advertising, or understand use of our Services, subject to applicable law and available privacy choices.

  • Professional advisers. Lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers, and other advisers who support our business and legal obligations.

  • Legal and safety recipients. Courts, regulators, governmental authorities, law enforcement, or other parties when we believe disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, property, or the integrity of the Services.

  • Corporate-transaction recipients. Parties involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, sale of assets, or similar transaction.

  • Other recipients at your direction or with your consent.

Service providers may use personal information only to provide contracted services to us or as otherwise permitted by their agreements and applicable law.

5. California privacy disclosures and choices

California law may provide eligible residents with rights concerning personal information, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information; to obtain information about its collection and disclosure; and to opt out of certain sales or sharing, subject to exceptions and applicability thresholds.

To submit a request, email info@stewartdigitalaffairs.com or call 562-212-4312. Please describe the right you wish to exercise and provide information reasonably necessary for us to locate your records. We may verify your identity before completing a request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require evidence of authorization and identity verification.

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right. We may deny or limit a request where permitted by law and will explain the basis when required.

Where our disclosure of personal information constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” under applicable California law, eligible residents may request to opt out by contacting us using the information above or by using any opt-out mechanism made available on the Services. We process legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals where required by applicable law.

6. Data retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide Services, complete transactions, maintain business and consent records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud and abuse, and protect our rights.

Retention periods vary based on the nature of the information and the applicable purpose. We may retain minimal suppression records after an unsubscribe, complaint, or delivery failure to prevent future prohibited sending. When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we delete, deidentify, or securely dispose of it as appropriate, subject to applicable law.

7. Security

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. No security measure or method of transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Cookies and similar technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember preferences, understand usage, measure communications and advertising, and improve performance.

You may be able to control cookies through browser settings and any consent or preference tools made available on the Services. Blocking certain technologies may affect functionality. Email messages may contain pixels or tracked links that provide delivery and engagement information where permitted by law.

9. Third-party links and services

The Services may link to websites or services that we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for those practices.

10. Children’s privacy

The Services are not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 through the Services. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

11. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will post the revised version on this page and change the “Last updated” date. If required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before a material change takes effect.
