We collect personal information only when necessary and with a clear explanation at the point of collection. For example, when you contact us directly, whether via email or a contact form, you may provide your name, email address, phone number, and the contents of your message. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address solely for delivering recall-related updates.

We do not sell or rent any personal data under any circumstances.

Like most websites, Recall Brief uses server log files to track general internet activity. These logs may include IP addresses, browser types, internet service providers, timestamps, referring and exit pages, and click counts. None of this information is linked to anything personally identifiable. Log data is reviewed to analyze trends, maintain site performance, and gather demographic insights.
