Privacy
What happens to information when you visit or contact us, in plain language.
Effective October 21, 2026.
When you visit
This site uses no cookies, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Every page, font and image comes from our own server; nothing loads from other companies.
Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, handles every request to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. To do that it processes your network (IP) address and browser details, under its own privacy policy. We don't keep our own visitor logs.
Because we don't track anyone, "Do Not Track" signals don't change anything here.
When you use the tip form
What you type is sent over an encrypted connection to our server, then delivered to our team by email through Resend, an email delivery service, and our email providers. Every contact field is optional. We don't email you, and we don't record your network address with your message.
Only our team reads submissions. We use them for our reporting, keep them only as long as we need them for that, and never sell, rent or trade them.
When you message us on Telegram
Messages to @valleysmostwanted go through Telegram and are covered by Telegram's privacy policy. Ordinary chats are stored on Telegram's servers; Secret Chats are end-to-end encrypted. Depending on your settings, we may see your phone number. Only our team reads these messages.
