Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2, 2026
The Short Version
We collect only what we need to operate the service. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We use standard analytics to improve the product. You have the right to access and delete your data at any time.
1. Who We Are
N🚫ligarchy ("we," "our," or "us") is a consumer advocacy platform that helps users make informed purchasing decisions based on publicly available corporate political spending data. Our website is located at noligarchy.com.
For privacy inquiries, contact us at: support@noligarchy.com
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
• Email Address — when you sign up for Beta access updates. Used only to send product announcements. You may unsubscribe at any time.
• Contact Messages — when you email us. Retained for up to 2 years for support purposes.
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you visit our website or use our app, we automatically collect:
• Browser type and operating system
• Pages visited and time spent
• Referring URL
• General geographic region (country/state level, not precise location)
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
This data is collected via standard web analytics (e.g., aggregated page view counts) and does not include precise personal identifiers.
2.3 Cookies and Local Storage
We use minimal cookies:
• Strictly Necessary: Session management and security. Cannot be disabled.
• Analytics: Anonymized usage metrics to understand how people use the product. You can opt out via your browser's "Do Not Track" setting or by contacting us.
We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to:
• Operate and improve the NOligarchy platform
• Respond to your support inquiries
• Send product updates (email, only if you opted in)
• Monitor for abuse or security threats
• Comply with legal obligations
We do not use your information for:
• Behavioral advertising or ad targeting
• Sale or rental to third parties
• Profiling or automated decision-making that produces legal effects
4. Third-Party Services & APIs
4.1 Service Providers
We rely on the following third parties to operate NOligarchy. Each processes only the data described above, under its own privacy policy:
• PostHog — product analytics (page views, feature usage)
• Supabase — backend database and authentication
• Cloudflare — hosting, content delivery, and security filtering
None of these providers are permitted to use your data for their own advertising purposes.
4.2 Google API Services
Our development team uses the Chrome Web Store Developer API (via Google OAuth) internally to publish updates to our own browser extension listing. This access is limited to our developer account and extension listing — it does not access, collect, or share any personal data belonging to visitors or users of NOligarchy, and no Google Account data obtained through this API is used for advertising or shared with third parties.
5. Data Retention
• Email addresses: retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion.
• Contact messages: retained for up to 2 years.
• Analytics data: retained in aggregated, anonymized form indefinitely; raw session logs deleted after 90 days.
6. Your Rights

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, you have the right to: (a) know what personal information we collect; (b) delete personal information we hold about you; (c) opt out of any sale of personal information (we do not sell personal information); (d) non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.
EU/UK Residents (GDPR)
Under the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to: access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, data portability, and to object to processing.

7. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including HTTPS/TLS encryption for all data in transit. We do not store sensitive payment information — all purchases occur on third-party retailer websites. While no system is 100% secure, we take reasonable precautions to protect your information.
