Above Public Affairs (“Above,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through this website (abovepublicaffairs.com), how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
Information you provide directly. If you contact us through a form on this site, we collect the information you submit — such as your name, email address, and message.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site — for example, pages viewed, time on site, approximate location (city/region level), device and browser type, and referring website. This data is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
Advertising technologies. We use advertising and retargeting tools, including the Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram), LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Google Ads conversion tracking. These tools use cookies or similar technologies to track site activity so we can measure ad performance and show relevant ads to people who have visited our site on other platforms. These providers may combine this information with other data they have collected about you through their own services.
Newsletter. If you subscribe to our newsletter, that signup is handled directly by Substack, not by this website. Your subscription and any related data are governed by Substack’s own privacy policy.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries submitted through our contact form
- Understand and improve how visitors use our site
- Measure and improve the performance of our advertising
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Sharing of Information
We share information with:
- Service providers who help us operate the site (e.g., our hosting provider, WP Engine)
- Analytics and advertising partners (Google Analytics, Meta, LinkedIn, Google Ads), as described above
- Law enforcement or other parties when required by law
Cookies
This site uses cookies and similar technologies from the analytics and advertising tools described above. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some site features may not function properly if you do.
Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended, gives you the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect and how it’s used
- Request access to or deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (as those terms are defined under the CCPA) — including the cross-context advertising tracking described above (Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Google Ads)
- Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights
To opt out of cross-context advertising tracking, you can:
- Enable the Global Privacy Control (GPC) in your browser, which we honor as a valid opt-out signal
- Adjust your ad settings directly with each provider: Meta, LinkedIn, or Google
- Email us at [email protected] with “CCPA Opt-Out” in the subject line, and we will disable ad-tracking cookies for your visits going forward
To exercise any other CCPA right (access, deletion, etc.), contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.
Children’s Privacy
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
