Privacy Policy

Overview

Meridian is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we handle data when you use our economic data exploration service.

Data We Process

When you use the data explorer, we process:

• Your interactions with the map (states viewed, overlays selected)
• Basic request metadata (timestamp, request origin)

Data Retention

We do not store personal data from map usage. Interactions with the data explorer are processed in real-time. We maintain aggregate usage statistics but these contain no personally identifiable information.

Contact Form Data

If you submit the demo request form, we collect:

• Name
• Work email address
• Company name
• Message content

This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and will not be shared with third parties.

Third-Party Services

Our service is hosted on:

• Vercel - Frontend hosting
• Railway - API backend hosting

These providers may collect standard server logs. Please refer to their respective privacy policies for details.

Security

All data transmission occurs over HTTPS. Economic data is sourced from public government APIs (BLS, Census Bureau) and cached locally on our servers.
