Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
Legacy Society (“Legacy Society,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website at legacysociety.org (the “Site”), how we use it, and the choices available to you. The Site is an informational website, and you may read and explore it without creating an account or providing any personal information.
Information We Collect
We collect very little information through the Site:
- Information you choose to provide. The Site does not include contact forms or user accounts. If you write to us—for example, by emailing the address listed on our Contact page—we receive your email address and any information you choose to include in your message.
- Technical information collected automatically. As with most websites, our Site is delivered by a hosting provider that records standard technical information in server logs, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and the pages you request. This information is used to operate, maintain, and secure the Site.
Cookies and Tracking
We do not use cookies, advertising trackers, or third-party analytics on this Site. We do not track your activity across other websites, and we do not build advertising profiles.
How We Use Information
We use the limited information described above only to:
- respond to messages and correspondence you send to us;
- operate, maintain, and protect the Site; and
- comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Third-Party Services and Links
Our Site is hosted by a third-party hosting provider (Vercel, Inc.), which processes technical information on our behalf in order to deliver the Site.
The Site and our Journal may link to external websites and services that we do not control—for example, publications where our writing appears, or a third-party platform used for charitable giving. When you follow a link to an external site or contribute through a third-party service, your information is handled under that organization’s own privacy policy, not this one. We do not receive or store payment card details.
How We Protect Information
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we hold. However, no method of transmitting or storing information is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We keep correspondence only as long as needed to respond to you and to maintain appropriate institutional records, after which it is deleted or archived in the ordinary course.
Your Choices
Because the Site does not require personal information, you may browse it freely without identifying yourself. If you have written to us, you may contact us to ask what we hold, to request a copy, or to ask that it be deleted, and we will respond to reasonable requests.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to remove it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page.
