This policy explains how Brooklyn.com collects and uses information when you use the Brooklyn Change Report. Brooklyn.com is an independently owned website and is not an official government service.
Information we collect
The report does not require an account, name, or email address. When you submit an address or neighborhood, the site uses it to request a location match and related public records. The saved place and last-check time are stored in your browser so a future visit can identify newer records. They are not used to create an account or profile. We also collect limited technical and usage information, including device type, referring source, approximate location, report loads, selected filters, source-link clicks, and time spent.
Analytics and cookies
Brooklyn.com uses Google Analytics to understand aggregate usage, improve the report, and measure whether visitors find and revisit useful information. Analytics services may use cookies or similar technologies. You can limit cookies through your browser and use Google’s available opt-out tools.
How information is used
Information may be used to operate and secure the site, understand site performance, improve the experience, measure engagement, prevent abuse, and comply with legal obligations.
Public-data services
Address matching and report results rely on New York City GeoSearch and NYC Open Data services. A search query is processed to locate the requested Brooklyn area and retrieve nearby public records. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy practices.
Sharing and selling information
Brooklyn.com does not sell personal information. The site shares limited usage data with service providers that operate hosting, security, and analytics under their own terms and privacy policies.
Data retention and choices
You can remove the saved report at any time by clearing this site's local storage or browser data. We retain other information only as reasonably needed for site operation, analysis, security, legal compliance, and dispute resolution. Questions may be sent to contact@brooklyn.com.
Children
Brooklyn.com is a general-audience site and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes and contact
This policy may be updated as the experience and legal requirements change. Questions may be sent to contact@brooklyn.com.
