Privacy Policy

1. The short version

US Questions and Answers is a reading website: a list of questions and answers about US statistics, each with its source and date. There are no accounts, no sign-ups, no subscriptions, no comments, and no contact forms on this site, and the site does not ask you for your name, email address, or any other personal information. This policy explains the limited technical data involved when any website is visited.

2. Information this site collects

The site itself does not collect, store, or sell personal information about its visitors. In particular:

• No accounts or forms. There is nothing to register for and no form that submits your details anywhere.
• Search runs in your browser. When you type in the search box or tap a topic filter, the filtering happens on your own device. Your searches are not sent to or stored by this site.
• No advertising trackers. This site does not run advertising networks or third-party marketing trackers.

3. Hosting and server logs

This site is served by a web hosting and content-delivery provider (Cloudflare). Like every web host, the provider automatically receives and may briefly log technical details needed to deliver pages and keep the service secure — such as your IP address, browser type, the pages requested, and the date and time of the request. That data is handled under the provider's own privacy policy and is used for operating and protecting the service, not for identifying individual readers of this site.

4. Cookies

This site does not set its own cookies for tracking, advertising, or analytics. The hosting provider may set a strictly necessary security cookie (for example, to distinguish human visitors from bots). Your browser lets you block or delete cookies at any time; the site will keep working.

5. Links to source websites

Almost every entry links out to its source — government agencies, research organizations, and news or data publishers. When you follow one of those links you leave this site, and the site you land on has its own privacy policy and its own data practices. This policy only covers US Questions and Answers.

6. AI crawlers and search engines

This site is deliberately open to search engines and AI bots (such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and Google-Extended) so its questions and answers can be found and cited. Those crawlers read the public pages only; they receive no information about individual visitors.

7. Children's privacy

This site is written for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. Because the site collects no personal information from anyone, it collects none from children either.

8. Your California privacy rights

California residents have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) regarding personal information that businesses collect. This site does not collect, sell, or share personal information as those terms are defined in the law, so there is no collected personal information to access, correct, or delete.

9. Changes to this policy

If the way this site works ever changes — for example, if a new feature is added that handles visitor information — this policy will be updated to say so before or when that feature launches. The date at the top of this page shows when the policy was last changed.
