OpenPHR Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 5, 2026 • Effective Immediately

1. Our Core Privacy Commitment

OpenPHR (openphr.org) is an early childhood education information equity project of Patient Journey Inc, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We believe public health and child care safety data should be accessible without compromising parent privacy.

Zero-Sale Commitment: Everything on this site is free, and it stays free. We do not sell, rent, monetize, or broker parent data — ever. No child care provider, private equity preschool chain, or third-party marketing aggregator has access to your contact information.

2. What We Collect and How It Is Used

A. Voluntary Email Signups

When you voluntarily enter your email address on the site (e.g. for CDSS citation monitoring alerts, daycare fit quiz results, waitlist spot notifications, or the Parent Advisory Circle), we collect your email address solely to deliver the specific updates and communications you requested about OpenPHR and licensing changes. We do not use your email for commercial advertising.

B. Client-Side Browser Storage

When you shortlist facilities or build comparison queues, that data is stored locally on your device (localStorage). It is not sent to or stored on our servers.

C. Aggregated Telemetry

We use privacy-conscious analytics (Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymization) to measure general aggregate traffic patterns (e.g. popular filters and page views) to improve site usability. We never track individual visitors across third-party websites, and we never attach personal names or emails to analytics events.

3. How to Request Deletion & Opt-Out

You have total control over your information at all times:

  • Every automated notification email contains an immediate, one-click unsubscribe mechanism.
  • You can request complete deletion of your email address from our database at any time by emailing privacy@openphr.org or contact@openphr.org with the subject line “Delete My Data”.
  • All deletion requests are honored promptly and confirmed within 7 business days.

4. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA / CPRA) Summary

Under California law, California residents possess clear statutory privacy rights:

Right to Know & Access

You can ask what personal information we maintain about you.

Right to Delete

You can demand complete deletion of your email address from our records.

Right to Opt-Out of Sale

We do not sell personal data. Our permanent non-sale policy satisfies this right.

Non-Discrimination

Exercising privacy rights never impacts your free access to our directory or data tools.

To submit a CCPA verifiable request, contact privacy@openphr.org.
