Questions
Quick answers
It is one small file that loads after your page, so it does not hold up anything else.
No. It sets no cookies, stores nothing in your visitor’s browser and runs no analytics. Like any file loaded from a website, loading it is a request to our server, and it asks for the list of numbers and nothing else.
The paragraph inside your code is what visitors see, and it always names 911 and 988.
We do. Each entry is checked against its official source, and the widget shows the month it was last verified.
