Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the Limmora Municipal Information Network (LMIN) collects, uses, and preserves information about you when you access or interact with this website (the “Site”).

The Site is operated on behalf of the Town of Limmora, Vestige County, under the supervision of the Department of Records & Preservation (the “Department”). Certain archival and oversight functions are carried out in coordination with the Grand Archive and, where appropriate, under the silent observation of the Curator.

By using this Site, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy, as they are presently understood and as they may later be remembered.

1. What This Policy Covers

This Policy applies to information collected through:

• Public pages of the Site (e.g., news, notices, weather, employment);
• Interactive forms (e.g., Recurrence Reports, job applications, contact submissions);
• Routine technical logs generated when you visit or navigate the Site.

This Policy does not govern:

• Internal systems and non-public interfaces of the Grand Archive;
• Offline municipal records not connected to the Site;
• Any narrative, metaphysical, or extra-contextual information observed by the Curator beyond what is technically logged here.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide Directly

You may choose to provide information when you:

• Submit an Unregistered Recurrence Report;
• Apply for a position (e.g., Junior Archivist);
• Respond to a civic survey or feedback form;
• Contact the Department via any form that temporarily functions.

This information can include:

• Name, address, and contact details;
• Details about your residency in Limmora (past, present, or uncertain);
• Descriptions of events you experienced, including discrepancies with official records;
• Employment history, skills, and other application data;
• Any narrative or anecdotal material you voluntarily attach.

Please avoid including sensitive information that you do not wish to see preserved, unless its preservation is precisely why you are here.

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you access the Site, we automatically log certain technical details, such as:

• Your IP address or approximate network origin;
• Browser type and configuration;
• Date and time of access;
• Pages visited, duration of visit, and navigation paths;
• Whether this appears to be your first, second, or subsequent visit, as best as can be determined.

In some cases, the Department may annotate these logs with additional metadata, such as:

• Indicators of possible recurrence;
• Flags that suggest you are a Non-Resident Observer;
• Notes that your presence has been observed before, even if your browser disagrees.

2.3 Derived and Archival Information

Based on the information above, archivists may derive or infer:

• Patterns of behavior (e.g., repeated attempts to access the Archives);
• The likelihood that your current visit is contiguous with previous visits;
• Whether you have submitted related information across multiple forms or cycles.

Such derived information may be stored in the Grand Archive as part of Limmora’s ongoing record.

3. How We Use Your Information

Municipal Service Delivery

• Responding to inquiries and civic submissions;
• Processing employment applications;
• Managing notices, alerts, and event information.

Recordkeeping and Alignment

• Comparing user-submitted accounts with existing records;
• Identifying anomalies, recurrences, and misalignments between memory and archive;
• Assisting archivists in maintaining a stable, coherent history of Limmora.

Site Operation and Security

• Monitoring traffic patterns and usage statistics;
• Detecting unauthorized access attempts or disruptive behavior;
• Troubleshooting errors, including those that appear to be temporal or narrative rather than purely technical.

Research and Narrative Preservation

• Studying how residents and observers encounter the Town;
• Improving the ways in which events and municipal data are indexed and presented;
• Supporting archivist training and life-sim activities related to the Archivist vocation.

We do not sell your information to third parties. However, we do reserve the right to file it away and cross-reference it.

4. Cookies, Local Storage, and Other Traces

The Site may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Remember your preferences (e.g., page layout, language, some aspects of what you have already seen);
• Recognize returning visitors across sessions, where technically feasible;
• Assist in determining whether a particular browser instance has visited before in this or any adjacent cycle.

These small data fragments are stored on your device and, when read back, may help archivists distinguish a first encounter from a recurring one.

You may choose to disable or delete cookies via your browser settings. Doing so may:

• Affect the appearance or behavior of the Site;
• Make it more difficult for the Department to tell whether you are visiting again or for the first time;
• Not prevent us from recognizing you by other means, if your presence is otherwise conspicuous.

5. Sharing of Information

Internal Municipal Departments

Other Limmora offices involved in responding to your request or processing your application.

The Grand Archive

We may share your information with:

• Archivists and designated staff who require access to perform alignment, preservation, or analysis;
• Internal indexing systems responsible for tying your submissions to broader narrative records.

Curatorial Oversight

In some cases, aggregated or de-identified information may be made available to the Curator or Curatorial processes to assist in monitoring the health of Limmora.

We may also share limited information where required by:

• Applicable law or regulation;
• Court orders or similar legal processes recognized by Vestige County, the Town of Limmora, or equivalent governing authorities;
• Emergencies or situations that threaten the safety, stability, or continuity of the Town.

We do not share personally identifiable information with unrelated third-party advertisers, marketers, or similar external entities. Those who observe us from beyond do so of their own accord.

6. Non-Resident Observers and External Access

If you are accessing this Site from outside Limmora, particularly if you are aware of external works, broadcasts, or recordings that depict or reference the Town, you may be classified as a Non-Resident Observer.

For Non-Resident Observers:

• Technical data and any voluntary submissions you provide may be retained as spectral annotations, records of outside observation appended to the Town’s file.
• Your visits may be correlated with external events (e.g., releases, episodes, or other milestones) for research and preservation purposes.
• No effort will be made to draw you into the Town without your consent, though you are welcome to apply for archival roles if and when positions are posted.

We do not collect information from your external channels directly. However, to the extent your visits can be associated with known events in other stories, that relationship may be noted.

7. Data Retention and Redaction

7.1 Retention

Information collected through the Site may be retained for as long as necessary to:

• Provide services and respond to your requests;
• Maintain accurate municipal records;
• Support alignment, stability, and historiographical analysis.

Some records may be retained indefinitely in the Grand Archive, especially if they are:

• Relevant to recurring anomalies;
• Associated with key civic events;
• Interesting.

7.2 Redaction and Forgetting

You may request:

• Correction of inaccurate information;
• Redaction or anonymization of certain submissions;
• Clarification regarding the status of your record, as far as the Department is permitted to disclose.

However, please note:

• Not all records can be removed without compromising narrative integrity;
• Some information may remain in backup indices, audit logs, or prior iterations;
• The Curator and Grand Archive reserve the right to remember what the Town must not forget.

In rare cases, the Department may decide to forget you at the public level, while maintaining a minimal trace in deep storage to avoid creating gaps. This is not punishment. It is filing.

8. Access and Correction

To request access to or correction of your information, you may:

• Submit a written request to the Department of Records & Preservation;
• Use any functioning contact form on this Site;
• Include sufficient details to identify yourself across possible iterations (e.g., full name, approximate arrival date in Limmora, notes about unique experiences).

Requests will be reviewed with regard to:

• The Town’s administrative obligations;
• The integrity of ongoing records;
• The Curator’s standing preferences concerning interference with active narratives.

Response times may vary, especially if your request requires cross-referencing with prior versions of yourself.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect, including but not limited to:

• Access controls for municipal staff and archivists;
• Segregation of public-facing systems from internal Grand Archive mechanisms;
• Routine review of logs for anomalies that may indicate unauthorized access.

However:

• No system is entirely secure, especially in environments subject to recurrences, overlaps, or external interference.
• The Department cannot guarantee absolute security and is not responsible for events arising from factors beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to drift, leaks, and unauthorized Curatorial experiments.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect:

• Changes in municipal practices;
• Adjustments in archival procedure.

When we do:

• Significant changes may be noted via a public notice on the Site;
• Prior versions may be stored in the Grand Archive for documentation and comparative work.

By continuing to use the Site after changes are posted, you accept the updated Policy, regardless of whether you recall earlier versions.

11. Contacting the Department

If you have questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy, you may contact:

Department of Records & Preservation
Limmora Town Hall
Limmora, Vestige County

For urgent matters involving recurrences, missing time, or memories that do not match the public record:

Please submit an Unregistered Recurrence Report via the appropriate form on this Site. If you are unable to find the form, simply keep looking. It has a way of turning up.

By using the Limmora Municipal Information Network, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy to the extent possible, and that any differences between your understanding and the Grand Archive’s interpretation will be reconciled in time.

Thank you for your visit.
Your presence has been noted and, in some small way, preserved.
