Privacy Policy
Information we collect
- Information you give us. If you sign up for updates, we collect the email address you provide. We do not ask for sensitive personal information on this site.
- Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our host may log basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, referring page, and the pages you visit. We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand, in aggregate, how the site is used.

We do not sell your personal information.
Email & third-party services
Our email signup is powered by Mailchimp, which processes and stores your email address on our behalf. Some links on this site lead to third-party services and partners (for example, tools to locate your elected representatives, and our social media profiles). Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices.
Cookies
This site uses minimal cookies or similar technologies needed for basic functionality and, where applicable, aggregate analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Your choices & rights
- You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any message.
- You may request that we access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you by contacting us (see below). Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws.
Data retention & security
We keep subscriber information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we take reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted here, and we will update the "last updated" date above.
