What we collect and why
This is a campaign run by one person. The short version: we collect the minimum needed to show real California support, we never sell or share it, and you can have it deleted by asking.
Last updated November 2026.
What we collect
If you add your name to the founding list: your name, email address, ZIP code, optionally your city, the role you selected, and an optional comment. We also store a one-way hash of your IP address, which cannot be reversed into an IP address, solely to limit automated abuse.
If you share a story: the text you write, and optionally the year, county, industry and an email address. If you leave the email blank, the story is fully anonymous.
If you use the letter composer: nothing you type is sent to us. The letter is built in your browser. If you press Copy, we record only that a letter was copied and the ZIP code field, with no name and no message text, so we can count how many districts have been contacted.
If you join the email course list: your email address, the page you signed up from, and a one-way hash of your IP address to limit automated abuse. We use it only to send the course and course updates.
If you use the checklist: your tick boxes are stored in your own browser and never sent anywhere.
What we do not collect
- No advertising trackers, no third-party analytics scripts, no Google Analytics, no Meta pixel.
- No cookies for tracking. The site does not set any advertising or profiling cookies.
- No documents. Never upload your separation agreement to this site. There is nowhere to do it, by design.
- No payment information. Nothing here costs money.
Why we collect it
A legislator's office asks two questions about a small bill: does anyone care, and do they live in my district. A name and a ZIP code answer both. Everything else is optional.
Who we share it with
Nobody. We do not sell, rent, trade or share your information. We do not run an affiliate program and we do not accept referral fees from any firm or service mentioned on this site.
If the campaign presents support to a legislative office, it presents aggregatenumbers: how many supporters, in which districts, in which roles. Your name and city appear publicly only if you checked the box asking us to show them, and even then only your first name and city.
How long we keep it
- Signatures: through the 2027 legislative session. Deleted within 90 days after the session ends, unless you opted in to updates.
- Stories: kept while the campaign is active, in anonymized form. Contact emails attached to stories are deleted on the same schedule as signatures.
- Email course list: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.
- Letter counts: ZIP and timestamp only, kept as aggregate statistics.
Your rights
California residents have rights under the CCPA, including the right to know what is collected, to have it deleted, and to opt out of sale. We do not sell data, so there is nothing to opt out of. The other rights apply in full.
To see what we have about you, or to have it deleted, emailhello@righttoafinalcopy.org from the address you used. We will respond within 30 days. There is no form and no verification maze.
Security and hosting
The site is hosted on Cloudflare and served over HTTPS. Submissions are stored in a Cloudflare D1 database. Cloudflare processes request data, including IP addresses, as part of providing hosting and security, under its own privacy terms.
If you opt in to updates, expect a handful of emails: when the bill is introduced, when it has a hearing, and if it passes or fails. Every email has an unsubscribe link. We do not send marketing.
A word about your agreement
Please do not email us your separation agreement. We are not your lawyer, we cannot review it, and sending it to us does nothing for you. It would also create a copy of a sensitive document in a place where it does not need to exist. If you need a document reviewed, seefree and low-cost help in California.
Changes
