Privacy policy
TempoBid (“we,” “us”) is a weekly federal-contract brief. This policy describes what personal information we collect and how we use it. This website does not include third-party analytics, advertising pixels, or other trackers. Free newsletter signup is completed on Substack, not in an embed on this page.
Information we collect
Free email signups are handled by Substack at tempobid.substack.com. When you submit a signup form, you are sent to Substack to complete the subscription. Substack’s handling of that information is described in Substack’s privacy policy. Paid plans are checked out through Stripe Payment Links.
When you subscribe or write to us, we may collect:
- Your email address, if you subscribe to the free brief through Substack or purchase a paid plan.
- Your name and billing details, if you purchase a paid plan. Card numbers are processed by Stripe and are not stored by TempoBid.
- The states, agencies, or incumbents you name, if you buy custom alerts.
- Messages you send to us, including at [email protected].
Our web host may also record ordinary server logs (such as IP address, browser type, and the page requested) for security and reliability. We do not use those logs to build marketing profiles.
Cookies
This site does not set tracking cookies. If a future checkout or account flow requires a strictly necessary cookie (for example, to complete a payment session), we will use it only for that purpose.
How we use information
We use the information above to send the brief, process payments and refunds, deliver custom alerts, respond to you, and keep the service secure. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for advertising.
Retention
We keep subscription and billing records for as long as needed to provide the service, meet tax and accounting obligations, and resolve refunds or disputes. You may unsubscribe at any time. If you ask us to delete your account information, we will do so except where we must keep a record of a payment or refund.
Your choices
You can unsubscribe from the free brief at any time using the link in a Substack email, or by writing to us. Residents of jurisdictions with additional privacy rights (including, where they apply, the right to access, correct, or delete personal information) may email us to make a request.
Children
TempoBid is intended for business readers and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
If we change this policy in a material way, we will update this page and revise the effective date. The current version will always be available at tempobid.com/privacy.

Questions about privacy, or a request to access or delete your information, can be sent to [email protected]. TempoBid is published by Sean Johnson in Illinois.
