Privacy Policy

Updated September 27, 2026

This page explains what New Rochelle First collects when you use this site, why, who can see it, and the choices you have. We wrote it in plain language.

What we collect

Surveys: your ratings, the choices you pick and anything you write, plus your name, email and ZIP code if you choose to give them.

Volunteer sign-up: name, email, phone (if you give it), district, interests, availability and any message.

Contact form: your first and last name, email, phone (if you give it) and message.

Newsletter: your email, and your name if you give it. We send updates only to people who ask for them.

Comments on The Wall: the name or nickname you use, your email if you give it, and your comment. Comments appear only after a person reviews them.

Technical data: like most sites, our hosting provider may keep standard server logs, such as your network address and browser type, and may record basic visit statistics such as page views.

Why we collect it

To answer you, to learn what neighbors care about, to send the updates you asked for, to run events, to review comments and to plan public-records requests. We do not use your answers to decide anything about you personally.

What we publish

We do not publish your name, your email or your free-text answers from surveys. Comments on The Wall are published after review, with the name you gave.

Who can see it

People who have administrator accounts for this site, and the companies that host the site and its database for us. We do not sell your information.

This site loads fonts from Google Fonts, so your browser contacts Google's servers when a page loads. Links to other sites are covered by those sites' own policies.

How long we keep it

We keep submissions until we no longer need them or you ask us to delete yours.

Your choices

You can ask us to correct or delete what you sent, and you can ask to be removed from our emails at any time. Questions or requests: GOPNEWRO@gmail.com, or write to PO Box 53, New Rochelle, NY 10804.

Please do not include sensitive information, such as account numbers or health details, in any form.

Children

This site is not meant for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes

If we change this policy we will change the date at the top of this page.
