Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Colin Wymore, a sole proprietor doing business as CityProof (“CityProof”, “we”) collects, why, who receives it and how long we keep it. It covers getcityproof.com, the money calculators we host for real estate professionals and loan officers, and the city guides we send.
The short version
- If you use a professional’s money calculator, your answers and contact details go to that professional only (both professionals on a co-branded calculator). Nobody else.
- We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not sell leads.
- Any political or personal-preference answers are optional, never shared with anyone, never attached to your name or contact details, and deleted within 90 days.
- The marketing site sets no advertising or analytics cookies.
- You can ask for a copy of your information, or for it to be deleted, at any time.
Movers: people who use a money calculator
What you give us
- Where you live now (a city or ZIP code)
- Your household income band, whether you plan to rent or buy, a budget or target price, and when you plan to move
- Your name and email address, so we can send your results and the guide
- If you choose to start the conversation with the professional after seeing your results: your phone number and how you would like to be contacted
- Your contact choices: whether the professional may call you and whether they may text you, recorded separately, with the exact consent wording you saw, its version, the time and your IP address, so the choice can be proven later
We do not ask for, and the money calculator never uses, your age, race, ethnicity, religion, sex, disability, whether you have children, or any other protected characteristic.
Who receives it
The professional whose calculator you used, and no one else. On a co-branded calculator (an agent and a loan officer together) both named professionals receive it. A professional may contact you only in the ways you agreed to. We never pass your information to another professional, a lender you didn’t choose, or any data broker.
What we do with it
- Calculate and show your result.
- Email you the city guide, branded by the professional whose calculator you used, and any corrections to it.
- Keep a record of each calculation (the inputs and the version of our figures used) so a result can be reproduced and checked.
- Keep the consent record described above.
Optional preference questions
Parts of getcityproof.com may in future ask optional questions about what matters to you in a place, which may include political or policy preferences, to suggest destinations. Those answers are stored separately from your name and contact details with no link between them, used only to show your result and for anonymous totals, never shared with any professional or anyone else, and deleted within 90 days. Agent and loan officer calculators never ask them.
Professionals: seat holders
We collect your name, business details, license numbers, photo, logo and colors (to brand your calculator and guide), your contact email and the email that receives leads, and your billing history. Payments are processed by Stripe, a PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment provider; we receive your customer and subscription details but never your full card number.
Visitors to getcityproof.com
If you sign up to hear about the pilot, we collect your email, and optionally your name, role and where you work, to reply to you. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (such as IP address, browser and pages requested) for security and reliability. The site uses no analytics service and no advertising or tracking cookies, so it shows no cookie banner.
Service providers
We use a small number of providers who process information for us under their own security terms:
- Vercel: website and application hosting
- Resend: sending email (leads, guides, sign-up replies) and storing the pilot sign-up list
- Stripe: payments and billing for seats
We will update this list before adding a provider that handles personal information.
How long we keep it
- Mover leads and calculation records: 24 months from submission, then deleted (calculation records are kept without identifying details).
- Consent records: 5 years, so a contact choice can be proven if questioned.
- Optional preference answers: up to 90 days.
- Pilot sign-ups: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them.
- Seat-holder and billing records: as long as the seat is active, then as long as tax and accounting law requires.
A professional who received your lead keeps their own copy under their own privacy obligations; contact them directly to have it removed from their records.
Your choices and rights
- Access and deletion. Email hello@getcityproof.com from the address you used. We will confirm and respond within 30 days.
- Email. Every email we send has an unsubscribe link.
- Calls and texts. Reply STOP to any text, or tell the professional you no longer want calls. You can also ask us to tell them.
- Opt-out signals. We honor Global Privacy Control and similar browser signals. Since we do not sell or share personal information for advertising, there is nothing further to opt out of.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state privacy laws. We will honor requests from any US resident in the same way.
Security
Information is encrypted in transit, access is limited to the people who run CityProof, and accounts that hold data use two-factor authentication. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects your information we will tell you as the law requires.
Children
CityProof is not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their information.
Changes
When this policy changes, the version and date at the top change. Material changes are emailed to seat holders before they take effect. See also the Terms of Service.
