This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

I thought I had heard somewhere that once a candidate had said they were going to run, they automatically got Secret Service protection. Or am I delusional?

I was trying to remember that myself. I think it may have been once the primaries have started, or maybe once they won the nomination of their party.

I found something this morning, Opie, that makes me think you’re right. They can get protection if they can show they need it, before they get the nomination. Clinton already has it, but that’s because she’s the wife of a former president.
