How UrbanDeliveryInfo.org collects, uses, and protects information in connection with your use of this website.
Last updated: January 1, 2025 | Effective: January 1, 2025
UrbanDeliveryInfo.org ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website as an independent informational resource about sandwich delivery systems in U.S. urban environments. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information in connection with your use of our website located at urbandeliveryinfo.org (the "Site").
Please read this policy carefully. By accessing or using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site immediately.
We collect two categories of information in connection with your use of this Site:
When you use the contact form on our website, you may voluntarily provide the following personal information:
We collect this information solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. You are not required to submit the contact form to use this website. All content on this Site is freely accessible without providing any personal information.
When you visit this Site, certain technical information may be collected automatically through standard web server logs and analytics tools, including:
This automatically collected information does not identify you personally. It is used in aggregate form to understand how visitors use our Site and to improve our content and user experience.
We use the information we collect for the following limited purposes:
Personal information submitted through our contact form is used exclusively to respond to your specific inquiry. We do not use this information for marketing, profiling, or any purpose other than addressing your message.
Automatically collected technical data is used to analyze aggregate website usage patterns, identify popular content, diagnose technical issues, and improve the overall user experience of this Site. This analysis is conducted on anonymized, aggregated data and does not involve identification of individual visitors.
We may use or disclose information if required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of UrbanDeliveryInfo.org, its users, or the public.
This Site may incorporate certain third-party services to support its operation. Where third-party services are used, we select providers that meet appropriate data privacy standards and we limit the data shared with them to what is necessary for their function.
Our Contact and About pages include embedded maps from OpenStreetMap, an open-source mapping platform. When you load a page containing an embedded map, your browser may send a request directly to OpenStreetMap's servers. OpenStreetMap's own privacy policy governs the data collected in connection with those requests. We use OpenStreetMap because it is a privacy-respecting, non-commercial mapping service that does not track visitors for advertising purposes.
This Site is served through web hosting infrastructure. Our hosting provider may collect standard server log data (IP addresses, request timestamps, page URLs) as part of routine server operation. This data is used for security, performance monitoring, and abuse prevention.
This Site loads web fonts (Barlow and Barlow Condensed) from Google Fonts. When fonts are loaded, your browser sends a request to Google's servers. Google's privacy policy governs data collected in connection with these requests. If you prefer to avoid this, you may configure your browser to block requests to fonts.googleapis.com; the Site will fall back to system fonts.
This Site does not display advertising and does not integrate with any advertising network, demand-side platform, or programmatic advertising service. We do not share visitor data with advertisers or data brokers.
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect information submitted through this Site. These measures include:
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please notify us immediately using the contact information provided below.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights with respect to personal information we hold about you. These may include:
You may request confirmation of whether we hold personal information about you, and if so, a copy of that information.
You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.
You may request deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to applicable legal obligations that may require us to retain certain data.
As we do not use personal information for marketing or behavioral advertising, there is no marketing opt-out applicable to this Site. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy and provide a clear opt-out mechanism.
California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete personal information, and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your California privacy rights, contact us at the address below.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@urbandeliveryinfo.org or by mail at 500 W Madison Street, Chicago, IL 60661. We will respond to verifiable requests within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.
This Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately at contact@urbandeliveryinfo.org and we will promptly delete such information. This Site does not require registration or account creation and contains only informational content appropriate for general audiences.
