1. Information We Collect
We are committed to minimizing the data we collect. Our website is designed to operate with minimal data collection:
- No account registration: We do not require you to create an account or sign in.
- No personal data forms: We do not collect names, addresses, phone numbers, or other personally identifiable information through the site itself, unless you voluntarily provide it (e.g., via email contact).
- Usage data: Third-party services such as Cloudflare and Google AdSense may automatically collect standard web analytics data including IP addresses, browser type, device information, pages visited, and referring URLs.
2. Local Storage Only
Our website uses your browser's local storage (localStorage) to save user preferences and application state. This data includes:
- Selected state preferences for CCW and law lookups
- Theme or display preferences
- Saved Q&A history or bookmarks
This data is stored entirely on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.
3. Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense (Publisher ID: ca-pub-2599493016668494) to display advertisements on our website. Google AdSense may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other websites on the internet.

5. Email Collection
If we offer an email newsletter or contact form in the future, any email addresses collected will be:

- Never sold to or shared with third parties for marketing purposes
- Stored securely and subject to the data retention practices described below

Cloudflare processes this data in accordance with their Privacy Policy. Cloudflare acts as a data processor on our behalf and is committed to GDPR compliance.
