Privacy statement
The project collects nothing about you through this site. The site sets no cookies, uses no analytics, advertising or tracking tools, and has no forms or accounts. The company that hosts it records each visit, as set out below.
What reading a page sends
The fonts and styles are served from this site, so reading a page sends requests to its host and to no one else. Each site we link to has its own rules. The project's page "What Florida counties can do about a large data center" has its own privacy note, since it saves your choices in your own browser.
What the host records
The site is served by GitHub Pages. GitHub logs and stores each visitor's IP address (the number that identifies an internet connection) for security purposes, as its own page says under "Data collection", and keeps those records under its own privacy statement. The project does not ask for or keep them.
If you write to us
Email to contact@inkindstandard.org is held in the project's email account, which Google Workspace hosts. We use your message and address to answer you and to keep the project's records. Most correspondence is kept for three years after the end of the year of the last message and is then destroyed. A message that belongs to another kind of record, such as a gift or a complaint, is kept for that record's period. Ask us which applies to yours.
Seeing, correcting and deleting your details
You may ask us to show you the personal details we hold about you, to correct them or to delete them, by writing to the same address. We answer within 30 calendar days. A request that touches a complaint about the founder or his work waits, as that complaint does, for an advisory committee not yet formed, and we tell you so. We delete the details unless the law, the period set for that kind of record, or a pending or expected claim, audit or investigation requires them to be kept, and then we say why.
Never sold or rented
Personal details are never sold or rented. We share or publish them only in these cases:
- where the law requires it;
- where another of the project's policies requires it, such as publishing donors' names and gifts;
- with your consent;
- with any fiscal sponsor (an established nonprofit that would oversee the work and hold its money) or partner nonprofit, for the work it runs;
- with any lawyer or accountant the project engages, who is bound to keep them confidential;
- with emergency services, when a message shows that someone's safety is at immediate risk;
- copies of messages that threaten or harass a person acting for the project, if that person goes to the police.
A service that processes personal details for the project, bound in writing to keep them confidential, may hold them for that purpose only; that is not sharing. If you do not want yours shared where we have a choice, tell us at the same address.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS only, and holds nothing about its visitors. Today the founder reads every message, and no one else sees one unless a task needs it.
Changes to this statement
This statement applies from the date below. Earlier versions are kept in the site's public repository. This statement's rules come from the project's Records and Privacy Policy, a working draft not yet published here.
