Privacy Policy

Last updated: [DATE — set on launch]

This Privacy Policy explains how [LEGAL BUSINESS NAME] ("we") collects and uses information when you use Four States Land Scout (the "Service").

1. Information we collect from you

• Email signups: your email address, the region you're interested in, and the page you signed up from. These are collected through our website forms, hosted by Netlify.
• Subscribers: name, email, and billing details. Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not see or store your full card number.
• Automatically: basic technical data from our hosting provider, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, used for security and to keep the site running. Our pages load fonts from Google Fonts, which may receive your IP address.

2. Property information in our reports

Our reports contain information about real property compiled from public government records. For subscribers only, this can include the owner of record's name and mailing address as shown in those records. We don't collect or provide phone numbers, email addresses, or other skip-traced contact data, and we do not sell reports for FCRA purposes (see our Terms). Owners or families who want a listing reviewed or removed can email [SUPPORT EMAIL].

3. How we use information

• To send the weekly list and service emails you asked for.
• To provide and bill subscriptions.
• To answer questions and removal requests.
• To protect the Service and comply with law.

4. Email

Every marketing email includes our mailing address and an unsubscribe link, as required by the CAN-SPAM Act. We honor unsubscribe requests within 10 business days.

5. Sharing

We don't sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help run the Service, and only as needed: hosting and forms (Netlify), payments (Stripe), and email delivery [EMAIL PROVIDER, e.g. Buttondown/Mailchimp]. We also share it when the law requires, or to protect our rights.

6. Retention and security

We keep signup and subscriber information while your account is active and for a reasonable time after, as needed for legal, tax, and accounting purposes. We use reasonable safeguards, but no system is completely secure.

7. Your choices

You can unsubscribe from emails at any time. You can also ask us to access, correct, or delete your personal information by emailing [SUPPORT EMAIL].

8. Children

The Service is not directed to anyone under 18.

9. Changes and contact

We may update this policy, and we'll post changes here. Questions: [LEGAL BUSINESS NAME] · [MAILING ADDRESS] · [SUPPORT EMAIL]
