What information we collect
Information you provide voluntarily
If you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list, share your contact information with third parties, or use it for marketing.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, we collect standard server log data when you visit, including:
- Your IP address (anonymized)
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited and time spent
- Referring URL (where you came from)
- Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
This data is used in aggregate to understand how our content is used and how to improve it. It is not linked to your personal identity.
Checklist tool data
Our interactive Checklist Builder tool runs entirely in your browser. The answers you provide (move type, housing situation, benefits, business status) are stored only in your browser's memory during your session. They are not sent to our servers, not stored in any database, and not associated with any identifier. When you close or refresh the page, the data is gone.
Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are most visited, how long people spend on them, and what devices they use. Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors. This data is aggregated and anonymized — we cannot identify individual users from it.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Advertising cookies
This site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other sites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info.
Microsoft Clarity
We use Microsoft Clarity, a behavior analytics tool, to understand how users interact with our pages (scroll depth, click patterns, and similar aggregate metrics). Clarity uses cookies. No personally identifiable information is collected. See Microsoft's Privacy Statement for details.
