Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 24, 2026

Information you submit

If you use the contact form, the site may collect your name, email address, subject, message, IP address, and technical details needed to prevent spam and deliver your message. Contact submissions are used to respond to your inquiry, review corrections, and protect the site from abuse.

Cookies and analytics

The base theme does not install advertising or analytics services. WordPress, your hosting provider, security tools, embedded media, analytics plugins, form plugins, or other services you later enable may use cookies or collect technical information. Update this policy after installing those services.

Third-party links

This website links to Michigan Central, historical organizations, tour providers, maps, and other third parties. Their websites have separate privacy practices, and DetroitTrainStation.com is not responsible for them.

Data retention and requests

Contact messages may be retained as long as reasonably necessary to respond, document editorial corrections, maintain business records, or address security concerns. You may request access, correction, or deletion of information you submitted, subject to legal and security requirements.

Security

Reasonable safeguards should be used, including HTTPS, software updates, limited administrator access, spam protection, backups, and secure hosting. No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.

Children

This site is a general historical resource and is not directed to children under 13. Do not knowingly submit personal information about a child through the contact form.

Policy updates

This policy may be updated when site features, plugins, legal requirements, or data practices change. The effective date should be revised whenever material changes are made.
