1. Information Collection
We operate this website primarily as an informational resource and as an official platform for public notices. We only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us.
- Email Addresses: We collect your email address only if you choose to subscribe to our automated notification service.
- Usage Data: We may collect non-identifying information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited to ensure technical functionality and to monitor website traffic.
2. Use of Information
Your information is used strictly for the following purposes:
- To send automated email notifications when public documents (legal notices, meeting minutes, budgets, agendas, audits, etc.) are updated on the website, only if you sign up to be notified of these updates.
- To maintain and improve the technical performance of the website.
We do not sell, rent, lease, or share our notification lists with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.

4. Disclosure of Information
As a public entity in the State of New Jersey, the District is subject to the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) (N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq.). While we do not voluntarily share your email address, it may be subject to public disclosure if a valid OPRA request is filed, unless an exemption applies under state or federal law.
