Privacy Policy, SnowfallCheck

What this site collects

SnowfallCheck has no accounts, sign-up forms or newsletter, and it does not ask for personal information to show you a town. The town search and the driveway picker run in your browser. The driveway you pick is saved in your browser's local storage so the town page can read it; it is never sent to us, and clearing your browser data removes it. The hosting provider, Firebase Hosting (Google), automatically records standard request logs, such as IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time, which are used for security and to keep the site running.

Cookies and advertising

SnowfallCheck does not currently set advertising cookies or run analytics. If advertising is added, this section will name the vendors and cookies involved before they go live.

Referrals and partner links

No affiliate relationship or snow removal referral is live on this site today. If one goes live, such as a link to a snowblower retailer or a request for snow removal quotes, this paragraph and the affected page's disclosure line switch on together, from the same setting, so a paid relationship can never appear silently. A referral would never change a town's verdict.

Data sources are not data about you

Snow figures come from NOAA and town locations from the Census Bureau. No personal data is exchanged with them. SnowfallCheck does not sell personal information.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, laws such as the EU and UK GDPR, California's CCPA/CPRA and similar laws elsewhere give you rights over personal information, including to know what is held, to have it deleted, and to opt out of its sale or sharing for advertising. For anything SnowfallCheck itself holds, which is limited to the hosting logs above, email hello@snowfallcheck.com.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.
