Privacy Policy

Overview

GovSifter.com is an informational website. We do not collect personal information through applications or account creation. This policy describes what data we collect through analytics and how we use it.

Analytics Data (Google Analytics 4)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site. GA4 collects:

• Pages visited and time on site
• General geographic location (country/region — not exact location)
• Device type and browser
• How you arrived at our site (search, direct, referral)
• Custom events we track (quiz started, quiz completed, affiliate link clicks)

This data is aggregated and anonymous. We do not collect names, email addresses, Social Security numbers, or any personally identifiable information through our analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Cookies

GA4 uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. These are first-party analytical cookies. We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to third parties.

Affiliate Links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase or sign up, the third-party service may set a tracking cookie to attribute the referral. We do not receive any personal information from these transactions — only a confirmation that a referral occurred. See our full affiliate disclosure below.

Quiz Data

The Benefits Finder Quiz processes your answers entirely within your browser. No quiz responses are transmitted to our servers. We do not store, log, or share your quiz answers. The only data we collect from quiz interactions is whether a quiz was started or completed (via GA4 custom events, without any personally identifying information).

Third-Party Services

When you follow a link from GovSifter to a third-party website (government agencies, affiliate services, or partner sites), you are subject to that site's privacy policy. We are not responsible for the data practices of third parties.
