Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how BoardWatch LLC ("BoardWatch," "we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and safeguards your personal information when you use our website.

Information We Collect

We do not automatically collect personal data or drop cookies when you browse BoardWatch. The only information we collect is what you voluntarily provide, for example:

  • Your email when you sign up for our newsletter.
  • Your comments or votes when you participate in community discussions or parent surveys.
  • Any other details you submit via our contact or feedback forms.

How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to your questions, support requests, or feedback.
  • To send you email updates, meeting summaries, or newsletters if you’ve opted in.
  • To improve BoardWatch features—like meeting transcripts, topic tracking, or voting tools—based on user feedback.

Cookies and Tracking

We do not use cookies, third-party trackers, or analytics scripts. All functionality runs server-side or via user-provided input.

Data Security

We employ industry-standard technical and organizational measures (encryption, secure servers, access controls) to protect your personal information from unauthorized access or disclosure.

Third-Party Links

BoardWatch may link to external sites (e.g., school district pages, Formspree for surveys). We are not responsible for those sites’ privacy practices; please review their policies directly.

Your Choices

You’re free to withhold personal details when using our site, but we may not be able to respond to your requests or provide certain features (like newsletter delivery) without your contact info.

Children’s Privacy

BoardWatch is intended for parents and community members. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 13. If you’re under 13, please do not submit any personal information.
