This is a volunteer-built site with no accounts, no forms, no analytics, and no cookies. Here is the full picture.
Effective September 1, 2026.
Nothing. There are no forms to fill in, no accounts to create, no comments, and no newsletter sign-up on this site. We run no analytics of any kind, so we do not know how many people visit or where they come from.
Nothing that identifies you. This site sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser's local storage.
The local times shown on the homepage are calculated inside your browser from your device's clock. Your time zone is used only to highlight the card that matches it. It is never sent anywhere.
| Provider | What for | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Netlify | Hosts the site's files | United States |
| Google Fonts | Serves the typefaces | Global network |
| YouTube | Plays a video, only after you press play (privacy-enhanced player) | United States |
Video previews are pictures stored on this site. YouTube is contacted only when you press play, and then YouTube's own privacy policy applies to that video.
Like any web host, Netlify and Google may see your IP address when your browser requests a file. We do not receive or keep that information.
Most of the tools on this site live on globalheroesofhope.com, which has its own privacy policy. Links to national cancer organisations and social networks lead to sites with their own policies.
The Global Relay Track is built and maintained by Relay For Life volunteers connected to the Global Heroes of Hope. It is not an official American Cancer Society publication. Questions: use the contact form.
If we ever add a form, a sign-in, or analytics, this page will change first and the date at the top will move.
