Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 28, 2026
Election Tracker ("we," "us," "our") operates electiontracker.live. This page describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our site.
Information We Collect
Automatically Collected
When you visit our site, our server logs may record standard technical information including your IP address, browser type, referring page, and the pages you visit. This data is used solely for site performance monitoring and security.
Newsletter Signup
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the email address you provide. We use this only to send you election coverage updates. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
Contact Form
If you contact us through our contact form, we receive the name, email, and message you submit. We use this information only to respond to your inquiry.
What We Don't Do
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties. We do not run targeted advertising. We do not use third-party tracking pixels, social media trackers, or cross-site analytics platforms. We do not build behavioral profiles of our visitors.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics tools (such as Plausible or Umami) that do not use cookies and do not collect personally identifiable information. These tools help us understand aggregate traffic patterns — not individual visitors.
Cookies
Our site uses only essential, first-party cookies necessary for basic site functionality. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party cookies of any kind.
Third-Party Links
Our articles contain links to external sources (news organizations, government websites, campaign finance databases). These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices.
Data Security
Our site is served over HTTPS. We take reasonable measures to protect any data we collect, but no internet transmission is 100% secure.
Children's Privacy
Our site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
