Legislative Services Agency (LSA) maintains the SC Legislature mobile app as a public service.
LSA does not capture personal information about any user of this mobile app without their permission. When you use this mobile app without logging on to any of the interactive online services and functionality, you do so anonymously. Personal information, such as your name, address, phone number, or e-mail address, is not collected through general use of this mobile app. Information, such as your device hardware ID, push notification token from Apple or Google, Internet Protocol number, date and time of your initial install, along with your preferences (content subscriptions for optional push notifications), is logged and stored on our systems, but not tied to your personal identity. The South Carolina General Assembly uses this information to provide push notification alerts (optional), track the number of users who use the mobile app and identify the most popular content and functionality in order to improve content and accessibility. LSA does not report or use this information in any manner that would reveal personally identifiable information and does not release the information to any outside parties unless required to do so under applicable law.
Transaction Information
LSA uses secured servers and secured sockets layer (SSL / TLS) for an encrypted connection between your device and our servers. The mobile app may use cookies to save your preferences (content subscriptions for optional push notifications) and provide access to secure staff-only applications (optional). LSA does not use the information for other purposes. No user information will be collected through the use of cookies except that which is required to run the specific application being accessed by the user.
E-Mail
E-Mail addresses are collected for the purpose of contacting Members by email within the app. The app requires an e-mail address in order for the recipient to receive their information. LSA uses the information only for that purpose.
