Whataretheyhidingnow.com (the "Site") to inform Indiana residents about HEA 1210 and to help them contact their state legislators. This policy explains what information we collect through the Site, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

When you subscribe for updates: If you sign up through our subscription form, we collect your first name, last name, and email address. This is handled through our membership platform, WildApricot, which stores this information on our behalf.

When you look up your legislator: If you enter your home address to find your state representative and senator, that address is sent to the U.S. Census Bureau's public geocoding service to determine your legislative district. We do not store this address on our own servers. The address may also appear in the pre-filled email message you choose to send to your legislator. That email is sent directly from your own email application, not through us, and we do not see or retain its contents.

When you browse the Site: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site, including which pages are viewed, which buttons are clicked, and in aggregate, which legislators are being contacted through the take-action tool. This data is tied to a browser/device identifier, not to your name, unless you've also subscribed and can be identified through other means.

Cookies: The Site uses cookies set by Google Analytics (for the purposes above) and by WildApricot (to support the subscription form). You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect how parts of the Site function.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Send you updates about HEA 1210 and related public notice issues, if you've subscribed
  • Understand which parts of the Site are effective, so we can improve the tools we offer
  • Operate the legislator contact tool

We do not sell your information. We do not share it with third parties for their own purposes.

Third-Party Services

The Site relies on a small number of outside services to function:

  • WildApricot: hosts our subscription form and stores subscriber contact information.
  • Google Analytics: provides aggregate usage statistics.
  • U.S. Census Bureau Geocoding Service: a public federal service used only to match an entered address to a legislative district; we do not control this service's own data practices.

Each of these services has its own privacy practices, which we encourage you to review.

Your Choices

  • You can unsubscribe from our updates at any time via a link in our emails
  • You are never required to use the address lookup tool. The Site also offers a list where you can select your legislator by name without entering an address.
  • You can disable cookies in your browser, which may limit some site functionality.

Children's Privacy

This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
