@Jared-Krajewski

Description

@Jared-Krajewski

Feature Description:

Add a well-written disclaimer to PDX Hub that communicates the informational nature of the tool. this can be a pop up on users first visit and otherwise be found in a link on the sidebar footer.

Problem it Solves:

Liability mitigation and defining a scope of responsibility

Proposed Solution:

  • A full-screen overlay on the user's first visit (stored in localStorage) with an "I Understand" dismiss button
  • Brief, plain-language text explaining:
    • PDX Hub is an informational tool, not an emergency service. Do not use it to make emergency decisions.
    • Data may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Always rely on official sources (911, emergency services) in an emergency.
    • PDX Hub is not affiliated with the City of Portland, PortlandMaps, TriMet, ODOT, or any other government entity.

this can otherwise be found in a link on the sidebar footer if someone wants to view it after the initial pop-up
