Privacy Policy

• Contact form: your name, email address, topic and message — used only to respond to you.
• Weekly digest signup: your email address, ZIP code and selected interests — used only to send the digest.
• Submissions: events, deals, videos or tips you send us, plus any contact details you include.
• Marco AI chat: the messages you type are sent to our AI provider to generate a reply.

Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested, timestamps) for security and reliability. We may use privacy-minded aggregate analytics to understand which pages are useful. We do not build advertising profiles and we do not sell personal information.

If you allow it, your browser may share approximate location with the live weather and map features. That location is used in your browser to show nearby conditions and is not stored by us. Accessibility widget preferences are saved in your browser's local storage only.

• reply to your messages and requests;
• send the weekly digest you asked for;
• publish submitted events, deals or videos (after review);
• operate, secure, debug and improve the Site;
• comply with legal obligations.

We do not use your information for automated decision-making that produces legal effects.

We share limited data with vendors that operate the Site on our behalf: our hosting and database provider (stores contact and digest records), our AI provider (processes Marco AI chat messages), weather and air-quality data providers, map tile providers, and YouTube for embedded video. These providers may process data under their own policies. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Contact messages are kept while we handle the request and for a reasonable period afterward for recordkeeping. Digest subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. You can request earlier deletion at any time.

Submissions are stored in an access-controlled database with row-level security, and the Site is served over HTTPS. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so please do not send sensitive personal information (government IDs, financial account numbers, health details) through our forms.

California residents may request to know what personal information we collect, request a copy, request deletion, request correction, and are protected from discrimination for exercising those rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA/CPRA, and we do not knowingly collect information from minors under 16 for sale or sharing. Submit a request through the contact form; we may ask for information to verify your identity.

If you are in the EEA or UK, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to processing. Our legal bases are your consent (digest signup), legitimate interests (operating and securing the Site), and legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time and may lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will delete it.

We do not track users across third-party websites for advertising. Where required, we honor Global Privacy Control signals as an opt-out of sale/sharing.

We may update this policy as the Site evolves. The "last updated" date above always reflects the current version.

We do not publish an email address. To exercise any privacy right, use our contact form and choose "Legal / privacy request".
