Site operation
Our hosting provider may process technical data such as your IP address, browser information, requested pages, and error logs to deliver the site, maintain security, and diagnose problems. The budget and quantity worksheets calculate in your browser; they do not submit your entries to us.
Advertising and cookies
We may use Google AdSense after this site is approved. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s advertising cookies enable Google and its partners to serve ads based on those visits. You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google’s Ad Settings. You can also learn about choices for other participating vendors at AboutAds.info. If other ad vendors are added, we will update this page with their identities and opt-out information.
External and affiliate links
Links to government agencies and retailers take you to websites with their own privacy practices. Current retailer links are direct links and do not earn a commission. If affiliate links are added, they will be labeled near the recommendation. We do not sell information submitted by email.
Contact and updates
For privacy questions, email info@washingtontribune.com. We may update this policy as site features and advertising change. Last updated September 25, 2026.
