Privacy

Every reader

For each page you see, the site records the page, the time, the language, the kind of device, the name of the site that sent you (its name only, not the page), and the town, region and country your network is in, as the host reports it — or the town you are in, if you have let your browser give your location (below). It also records a code for you for that day, made from your network address, your browser and what your browser says of your device — the size of its screen, its processor, memory and touch, its time zone and languages, and on some phones the model — with a secret mixed in, so that two phones of one make on the same wifi are two readers. Your address and those details are not kept, and the code changes every midnight. If your browser asks not to be tracked — Do Not Track, or Global Privacy Control — nothing is recorded.

If you give your name

The opening screen asks your name. Giving it is up to you: Skip is beside it. If you give it, the site keeps the name as you typed it, and the pages you open from this browser carry it. A random number kept in your browser links them, so that next time the screen can greet you. One name to a browser, to keep the log true: a browser that has given a name is not asked for another, and the site takes one name a day under a browser's code for the day — the code above — and thirty from a network. No email address and no password are asked for, and nothing else about you is kept but your town, if you allow it (below).

If you allow your location

When you give your name, your browser asks whether this site may know your location. Saying no changes nothing: the town your network is in is recorded, as for every reader. If you allow it, your browser gives your device's position, which this site rounds to about a hundred metres and sends only to its own server. There it is matched against the government's own map of the towns, and your visits record the town you are in, its province and its region in place of your network's — never the position, which is kept nowhere. A browser that has allowed it gives it again on later visits without asking; you can take that back at any time in your browser's settings for this site. In Who visits, a town that came from a network is marked as approximate.

Why

To know how the Statistical Corner is used, and by whom, so that the office can make it more useful to the people it is for. Nothing is sold, shared or used for advertising.

Who sees it

The municipal staff who keep this site, in the Visitors page's Who visits, opened with the office's passcode. Everyone else sees only the numbers on that page — visits by day and by month, and what they were read on — never a name or a place.

For how long

Visits and downloads are kept for twelve months and then deleted, and a name with them once none of its visits is left.

What you can ask for

You can ask to see what is held about you, to have it corrected, to have it deleted, and to object to its use. Your name can be taken out of the log at once, below. For anything else, write to the LGU's Data Protection Officer at lgu@banayoyo.gov.ph. You may also bring a complaint to the National Privacy Commission.

This browser holds no name.

What is kept in your browser

If you gave your name: the name and its number, until you forget them here or clear this site's data. For as long as the tab is open: that you have answered the opening screen, that your arrival has been counted, your rounded position for that day if you allowed your location, and — if you said the name this browser holds is not yours — that your pages go without it. On the office's own devices, a cookie saying Who visits has been opened with the passcode. Nothing from an advertiser or any other outside service.
