Privacy

Plain English. No surprises.

What we collect

The question you typed — when you ask "how does this affect me", we hold the question briefly to look up the answer and discard it. The question is not logged with your IP.
Aggregate page views — every page load sends an anonymous record (site, path, referrer, screen size, timestamp) to a first-party endpoint that increments daily counters only. No per-visitor IDs, no cookies, no IP storage.
Server logs — standard web-server access logs (IP, time, path, status). Rotated. Not joined to anything.

What we don't collect

No Google Analytics, Facebook pixel, Mixpanel, Amplitude, Hotjar, Segment, or any third-party tracker.
No advertising identifiers and no ad targeting. How Does This Affect Me runs no ads.
No behavioral profile of you. We do not predict your behavior, your engagement, or your churn. Every visitor sees the same content for the same query.
No call to OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or any LLM vendor with your personally identifying information.
No session-replay tools.

What this app is

A read-only policy explainer. There are no user accounts. The same answer is generated for every visitor asking the same question, based on the same set of public sources.

Third-party data sources

Congress.gov, Federal Register, state-legislature feeds, Ballotpedia, and the same Modelo Tech BallotPulse data store used elsewhere in the portfolio.

Deleting your data

No accounts, no per-user data stored. Nothing to delete.
