4. Advertising Policy
Advertising features may be deployed in the future to support research operations. This privacy policy will be updated prior to deploying any third-party ad networks or cookies.
5. Technical Security
All traffic to USA Spending is encrypted via standard HTTPS / Transport Layer Security (TLS). Strict Content Security Policies (CSP) guard against malicious scripts.
