Privacy Policy
Effective October 20, 2026
Town Hall Meetings (townhallmeetings.org) is an independent, privately operated website that gathers publicly posted recordings of local government meetings, such as city councils, county boards and school boards, so anyone can find and watch them. This policy explains what information is involved when you use the site.
What we collect
- No accounts. You don't sign up, log in or give us your name, email or any other personal details to use the site.
- Basic server logs. Like nearly every website, our hosting provider automatically records technical details of each visit (such as IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time) to keep the site running and secure. We don't use these logs to identify you.
- Email you send us. If you write to us, we keep your message and address only to reply.
We don't sell personal information.
Advertising and cookies
The site shows ads served by Google AdSense, which helps cover the cost of running it.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's My Ad Center. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services. Where required by law, you'll be asked for your consent before advertising cookies are used.
Town Hall Meetings itself doesn't set cookies or store anything in your browser.
Meeting videos and YouTube
Meeting videos are published by the governments themselves on YouTube and play on this site through YouTube's embedded player. When you play a video, YouTube may collect information and set cookies under its own policies. This site uses YouTube API Services only to read public information about meetings (titles, dates and lengths); it never accesses anyone's YouTube or Google account. By watching videos here you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.
Fonts
The site loads typefaces from Google Fonts and Fontshare, which means your browser contacts those services, as it would for most websites.
Children
The site is a general-audience civic resource and isn't directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
