Privacy Policy
CoronadoHistory.com is an independent digital archive and educational chronicle. We believe public historical knowledge should be accessible with complete integrity and zero commercial surveillance.
1. Educational Mission and Scope
CoronadoHistory.com operates as an educational and historical preservation platform. Our primary purpose is providing free, peer-reviewed historical documentation, photographs, architectural surveys, and timelines regarding the history of Coronado, California.
2. Zero Commercial Surveillance
We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal data. We do not employ third-party behavioral advertising networks or tracking pixels that follow you across the internet.
3. Local Browser Storage
This website uses modern web standards and client-side browser storage (such as localStorage) solely to store your personal interface preferences:
- Visual Theme Preference (Light Mode or Dark Mode).
- Consent banner acknowledgement state to prevent repetitive display.
These settings remain entirely on your local device and are never transmitted to external servers.
4. Technical Logs and Hosting Security
Like virtually all standard web servers, our hosting infrastructure may record standard, temporary technical connection logs (such as IP addresses, browser user agent strings, and request timestamps) strictly for server diagnostics, denial of service mitigation, and performance optimization.
5. External Archival Repositories
Our historical dossiers contain citations and links to external institutions such as the Library of Congress, National Archives, Coronado Historical Association, and municipal directories. We encourage visitors to review the independent privacy policies of those respective institutions when visiting their websites.
6. Inquiries and Contact
