Privacy and trust
Plainly, how we handle your information.
Contact and volunteer inquiries
The contact form collects your name, email, message, and optional interest in joining the volunteer group. These are stored privately for the organizer to respond. Volunteer interest is off by default and is separate from petition consent or campaign email updates. You can ask the organizer to delete your contact message.
What we collect, and why
Your full name, email, neighborhood, and an optional private comment. We use your name and neighborhood to show officials who supports the request, your email to confirm your signature (and send updates only if you ask), and your comment to understand how noise affects neighbors.
What may be shared with officials
Only your name and neighborhood, and only if you're a confirmed signer. We may share these with the Waban Area Council, Newton and Wellesley officials, state legislators and MassDOT.
What is never public
Your email address and private comment are never published or shared with officials. We never show individual homes or exact locations.
Optional choices
Campaign email updates are optional and off by default. You can unsubscribe at any time.
Unsubscribing or removing your signature
Every confirmation email includes a private link to unsubscribe or delete your signature entirely. You can also ask the organizer directly.
What deletion can't undo
Deleting your record removes it from our database, but it cannot recall a petition that has already been delivered to officials.
Who we are
An independent resident campaign. We are not a government website, and nothing here implies an endorsement, approved funding, or a commitment by any agency.
