Site policy

Privacy Policy

This site is designed as a static public-information site. It does not require accounts and does not ask visitors to submit student, parent, or household information.

Basic server logs may be created by the hosting provider, such as request time, browser type, requested URL, referring page, and IP address. Log retention depends on the hosting provider and should be reviewed before launch.

The map view loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap. School profile pages may display public school logos from school or district websites. Those third-party services may receive the visitor browser IP address and request metadata when the browser loads their content.

This site may use Google AdSense Auto ads. When enabled, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies, receive browser and request metadata such as the page URL and IP address, measure ad performance, protect against fraud, and deliver or personalize ads depending on the visitor's settings, consent choices, and applicable law. Google may automatically place ads in available areas of the page based on the site's AdSense settings.

Google explains how it uses information from sites and apps that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. AdSense identifiers are configured at build time. Any required advertising disclosures, consent controls, page exclusions, and area exclusions should be maintained before ads are enabled in production.

The site does not collect individual student information. Public NCES demographic percentages are suppressed for schools with total enrollment below 11 to avoid publishing tiny derived demographic cells.
