Who We Are

This website is operated by Friends of Amanda Dolina (“the Campaign”), the authorized candidate committee for Amanda Dolina, Calvert County Treasurer, registered with the Maryland State Board of Elections. Our mailing address is 424 Solomons Island Rd N, Prince Frederick, MD 20678.

Authority: Friends of Amanda Dolina, Jamie Martyn, Treasurer.

Information We Collect

Automatically collected. When you visit this site we may collect your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring URL, and approximate geographic location through standard server logs and analytics.

Voluntarily provided. When you submit a contact form, volunteer sign-up, endorsement, or newsletter subscription, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and any message content.

Donation data. Donations are processed by Anedot (https://secure.anedot.com/friends-of-amanda-dolina/donate), a third-party payment processor. The Campaign never sees, stores, or has access to your credit card, bank account, or other payment credentials — those are entered directly into the processor and tokenized before reaching our servers. We do collect and store donor name, mailing address, phone, email, employer, occupation, and contribution amount as required by Maryland campaign finance law (Md. Code Ann., Election Law, Title 13).

Donation form drafts. When you begin filling out the donation form, the information you enter is saved on our servers as you type, even if you do not complete the contribution. We retain this data so the Campaign treasurer can reconcile incomplete contributions and reach out to donors who experienced a payment problem. Drafts that are never completed are not reported to the Maryland State Board of Elections and are deleted on a rolling basis. To request deletion of an incomplete draft sooner, email us using the address in the Contact section below.

Public Disclosure of Donor Information

Maryland law requires that campaign contributions be publicly reported to the Maryland State Board of Elections. Donor name, address, employer, occupation, and contribution amount become part of the public record once applicable reporting thresholds are met, and this information is accessible through the State Board of Elections’ public campaign finance database. By making a contribution, you acknowledge this legal requirement.
