    Referral links and QR codes may contain unique identifiers that allow The Neighbor List to attribute a visit or action to the appropriate referral, business, deal, campaign, or marketing source.

    5. Cookies and Local Storage

    The site may use browser storage, cookies, or similar technologies for authentication, session management, referral attribution, preferences, and platform functionality.

    6. How Information Is Shared

    Information may be shared with service providers that help operate the platform, such as hosting, database, authentication, payment processing, communications, analytics, and infrastructure providers.

    Public business-directory information and business-submitted deals are intended to be publicly visible when published.

    The Neighbor List does not sell personal information to advertisers for their independent marketing purposes.

    7. Payments

    Paid advertising or other paid business services may be processed through third-party payment processors. When payment information is handled by the payment processor, The Neighbor List does not need to store complete payment-card information.

    8. Communications

    Users may receive transactional or service-related communications connected with accounts, applications, claims, deals, referrals, advertising, or requests they initiate. Marketing communications should include appropriate opt-out options where applicable.

    9. Data Security

    The Neighbor List uses reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to help protect information. However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

    10. Data Retention

    Information may be retained as reasonably necessary to operate the service, maintain business and referral records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud or abuse, comply with legal requirements, and maintain legitimate business records.

    11. Your Choices and Requests

    Users may contact The Neighbor List regarding their personal information, account information, corrections, or privacy questions. Business owners may also request corrections to information displayed about their business. Some records may legitimately need to be retained even where a deletion request is made.

    12. Third-Party Websites and Services

    Business profiles, deals, advertisements, and other content may link to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

    13. Children's Privacy

    The Neighbor List is not intended for children under 13 and does not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13.

    14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

    This policy may be updated from time to time. When appropriate, the effective date will be updated to reflect the most current version.
