Local News Shouldn't Be Hard to Find

The average print newspaper subscriber in North Carolina is 58 years old. The median age in Vance County is 41. There's an entire generation that cares deeply about what's happening in their community but is unlikely to pick up a paper or visit a newspaper website.

Heard meets them where they already are -- on their handheld device. One app, every paper, every station, every county.

Get 2 Know Your City LLC ("G2K," "we," "our," "us") operates the G2K Heard™ mobile application. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use G2K Heard.

1. Information We Collect

Device Information

We collect basic device information (OS version, device model) and crash logs to diagnose issues and improve app performance. This data is collected automatically and is not linked to your identity.

Usage Data

We collect anonymous usage data such as which articles are read, which sections are browsed, and which radio stations are played. This data is aggregated and used to improve the app experience and to provide publishers with anonymous readership analytics.

Locally Stored Data

G2K Heard stores the following data on your device only:

  • Your selected newspaper preference
  • Bookmarked articles
  • Read/unread article state
  • Cached articles and images for offline reading (up to 200 articles)

  • We do not sell any data to third parties.
  • We do not use third-party analytics SDKs, advertising SDKs, or tracking pixels.

3. Third-Party Services

G2K Heard connects to the following external services to deliver content:

  • Newspaper RSS Feeds: We fetch publicly available RSS feeds from newspaper websites to display articles. Your device makes these requests directly.
  • Radio Stream Providers: Radio stations are streamed using their existing public stream URLs. Your listening activity counts in the station's own analytics.
  • FeedKit (Open Source): Used for RSS feed parsing. Operates entirely on-device.

4. Notifications

G2K Heard sends local notifications only (morning and evening briefing reminders). These are scheduled entirely on your device. We do not use push notification services or collect device tokens. You can disable notifications at any time in your device's Settings.

5. Children's Privacy

G2K Heard is a news reading application suitable for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Because we do not collect personal information from any user, COPPA compliance is inherent in our design.

6. Data Security

All network connections use TLS/HTTPS encryption. Because we do not collect or store personal information on our servers, there is no personal data at risk of breach.

7. Data Deletion

Because G2K Heard stores data locally on your device and does not maintain user accounts or server-side data, you can delete all app data at any time by deleting the app from your device. No request to us is necessary.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
