Privacy policy.

The short version

We collect as little as we can. We do not sell or rent your information. We do not run ads, ad trackers or analytics scripts.

Email updates

If you sign up for local updates, we keep your email address, your ZIP code, the date you signed up and that you said yes to emails. We use them only to send you those updates.

If you send us a message with our form, we keep the message and your email, if you give one. We use them only to reply and to fix the site.

Your browser

We save a few small settings in your own browser, such as a pop-up you closed or the officials you picked. They stay on your device. Clearing your browser data removes them.

Security

To stop abuse, our server briefly looks at your IP address to limit how many forms one connection can send. We hold that in memory only, not in a database.

Your choices

You can ask us to show you or delete what we hold about you. Use the form on our About page and give the email you used.
