Central Florida ADU Authority is a small, editorial site. We collect as little personal data as the web allows, we do not sell it, and we never will. This page describes what we collect and why, in plain language.
What we collect
Analytics — aggregate, no cookies, no cross-site tracking. We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-first analytics service that does not use cookies, does not track individuals across sites, and is compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and PECR out of the box. Plausible tells us how many people visited a given page, roughly where in the world the traffic came from (country-level, not city), which other site referred them, and what browser category they used. It does not tell us who you are, store any identifier on your device, or follow you around the internet. Plausible publishes its full data collection practices at plausible.io/data-policy.
Newsletter subscriptions. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we store the email address you provided and the date of subscription. We use this information solely to send the newsletter. We do not sell, rent, or exchange these addresses. You can unsubscribe with one click from the footer of any newsletter email; unsubscribe requests are honored immediately and the email is deleted from our active list within 30 days.
Email correspondence. If you email us, we retain that email in our inbox for the duration of the correspondence plus any reasonable follow-up window. We do not add email correspondents to any marketing list automatically.
Server logs. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare Pages) retains standard access logs for security and operations purposes. These typically include IP address, user agent, requested URL, and timestamp. We do not access these logs in aggregate for marketing purposes. Cloudflare’s retention and handling practices are published at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
What we don’t collect
We do not run cross-site tracking pixels (no Facebook Pixel, no Google Analytics, no LinkedIn Insight tag). We do not build profiles of individual readers. We do not collect precise geolocation. We do not ask for your name, phone number, age, income, or any other personal demographic to read the site. We do not have user accounts and never plan to.
Third parties
Beyond the analytics and hosting providers named above, the only third parties that might receive any data about you are the affiliate partners whose links appear on the site. When you click an affiliate link, the partner’s own analytics will see the click arriving from our referrer. What they collect from that point forward is governed by their privacy policy, not ours. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any affiliate partner before completing a transaction.
Cookies
We set no first-party cookies. Cloudflare may set a small number of infrastructure cookies for security and performance (for example, the bot-fight cookie __cf_bm), which are described in Cloudflare’s policy. We use no advertising cookies.
Your rights
If you subscribed to the newsletter and would like your email removed, use the unsubscribe link in any newsletter email or email us directly. If you live in a jurisdiction that grants you the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you (California, the EU, UK, and similar), email hello@centralfloridaadu.com and we will respond within 30 days. Because we collect so little, most such requests are handled in a single email.
Children
The site is intended for adults researching construction and real-estate decisions on their own property. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you believe we have received such information, email us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we materially change what we collect or how we handle it, we will update this page, change the “Last updated” date above, and post a notice on the homepage for at least 14 days. For non-material changes — grammar fixes, clarifications, vendor updates — we update the date but do not post a separate notice.
Contact
Questions about privacy go to hello@centralfloridaadu.com. We respond within 48 hours on weekdays.
