Privacy

What we collect: as little as possible

No accounts. You never sign up or log in to use SNAP Resource Center.

No sensitive identifiers. We never ask for a Social Security number, EBT card number, date of birth, address, or exact income.

The estimator. When you use “See How Much SNAP You Can Get,” your answers (state, household size, whether anyone is 60 or older or has a disability, and monthly dollar amounts) are sent to our server once, to work out the estimate. We keep only your state, household size, the 60+/disability answer, and the estimated amount alongside your contact details below. The dollar amounts you typed are not stored.

Your results by email and text. To see your estimate you give us your first name and email, and optionally a mobile number with your consent to texts. We use them to send your results, your state's next step, and a documents checklist, and to send the free Benefits Insider newsletter and weekly text updates. We record the consent wording you saw and when. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and texting STOP ends texts. We never sell or share your contact details.

Server logs. Like every website, our hosting provider keeps standard technical logs (IP address, pages requested, browser type) for security and to keep the site running. They are not used to identify you and are deleted on the provider's normal schedule.

No advertising trackers. We do not run third-party advertising or tracking scripts on this site.

Links to official sites. When you follow a link to a state agency or USDA website, that site's privacy policy applies.
