We collect information to help us understand how visitors use our website and to send updates about the ballot initiative. Here's what we collect:

Website Analytics

We use Google Analytics to see which pages are popular and how people navigate our site. This includes your general location, device type, and pages you visit.

Email Marketing

When you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your email address and track how you interact with our emails and website to send you relevant updates.

Property Tax Calculator

When you search for property information, we temporarily process your address to return tax data. We don't store your actual address, but we do create anonymous identifiers to understand which areas of town are most interested in the calculator.

Our property tax calculator uses publicly available data from Stoneham's Patriot Properties database. We maintain our own copy of this public information to provide fast, private lookups without sharing your searches with third parties.

Your privacy:

When you enter an address, we look it up in our database and show you the results, but we don't store your actual address. We do create anonymous identifiers to understand which parts of town are most engaged with the calculator, but these cannot be traced back to you personally.

We use Google Tag Manager to manage tracking tools on our website. This helps us understand how visitors use our site and send relevant email updates.

Google Analytics

We track general website usage like page views, visitor location, and device type to understand what content is most helpful. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy.

Email Marketing (Brevo)

When you subscribe to our newsletter, we use Brevo to send updates and track email engagement. This helps us understand what information is most valuable to you. Brevo stores your email and interaction data for up to 12 months.

Learn more at Brevo's Privacy Policy.
