Privacy Policy

Last reviewed: June 12, 2026

This site is a community information resource for Anderson Island, Washington. It does not sell anything, does not require an account, and does not let visitors post comments or submit forms beyond emailing us directly. The site collects very little, and this page explains what and why.

What we collect

We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used, which pages get read, and roughly where visitors come from. Google Analytics sets cookies and collects usage data such as pages viewed, time on the site, the type of device and browser, the referring site, and a general geographic location based on IP address. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally.

If you email us using a link on the site, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write. We use that only to reply to you.

What we do not collect

We do not ask you to create an account, we do not run a comment system, and we do not sell or rent any information about you. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Advertising

We may show ads on this site through Google AdSense. When ads are active, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.

Cookies and how to control them

The cookies on this site come from Google Analytics and, when active, Google AdSense. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to stop Analytics from collecting your data. Blocking cookies will not break the site.

Links to other sites

We link generously to other organizations and resources. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of sites we link to, so read their policies when you visit them.

Your choices

You can browse the site without giving us any personal information. To limit data collection, use the opt-out tools above or your browser's privacy controls. If you have emailed us and want your message deleted, ask and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site grows or as the tools we use change. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page.
