Privacy
This notice explains what happens to information you give us on golocalbongo.com, the site where businesses respond to Local Bongo's editorial invitations. Last updated: November 12, 2026.
What we collect
- What you enter in the forms: your name, email address, business details, answers about your business, and any photos, captions and credits you upload.
- The permissions you choose, with the exact wording shown to you, its version and the time you chose it.
- Basic technical information to protect the forms from abuse: a one-way code derived from your IP address and your browser type. We do not use advertising cookies on this site.
- If you arrived through a personal invitation link, which invitation it was, so we know who responded and stop sending follow-up emails about it.
How we use it
- To consider your business for a free editorial feature on localbongo.com and to contact you about it.
- Photos are used only as your permissions allow: in an editorial feature if you granted editorial use, and on Local Bongo's own social media only if you also granted that.
- We email you about other Local Bongo news only if you separately opted in. Editorial participation never signs you up for marketing.
Who can see it
Only Local Bongo's editorial team and the service providers that host our systems. Uploaded photos are stored privately and are never published automatically. We do not sell your information.
The assistant
If you chat with Jessica, our AI assistant, the conversation is stored so our team can follow up and improve answers. Please do not share sensitive personal information in the chat.
How long we keep it
We keep submissions while your business is being considered and, if it is featured, for as long as the feature is published. You can ask us to delete your submission at any time.
Your choices
You can withdraw a permission for anything not yet published, correct your information or ask us to delete it by contacting the editors. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link.
