Cookie Policy
The cookies CitywideLink uses, and how to control them.
Last updated: October 4, 2026 · CitywideLink
Platform notice. CitywideLink is an independent civic technology platform. CitywideLink is not itself a city, county, state, or federal government agency. Some CitywideLink markets may be operated in partnership with verified local government organizations. Any official partnership or government-provided content will be clearly identified. CitywideLink does not replace emergency services. For emergencies, call 911.
What we use
CitywideLink uses cookies and browser storage, which are small pieces of data your browser saves, to keep the site working and remember your preferences. We keep this deliberately minimal.
Strictly necessary
These keep you signed in, protect against cross-site request forgery, and maintain your session as you move between pages. The site does not work without them, so they cannot be turned off in the app.
Preferences
These remember choices like your selected city and map view so you do not have to set them on every visit.
Analytics
We use limited analytics to see which features neighbors actually use and where the site breaks, so our team can spend its time well. That data is aggregated. We do not run advertising cookies and we do not allow third-party ad trackers.
Third-party content
Map tiles and fonts load from outside providers, which may receive your IP address in order to send those files. Their own privacy policies govern what they do with it.
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block the strictly necessary ones you will not be able to sign in or track a report. Clearing local storage resets your saved city and interface preferences.
