Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

We collect information to provide and improve the services offered on our website. This may include: (a) information you provide directly, such as your name and email address when subscribing to newsletters, submitting tips, or contacting us; (b) usage data automatically collected when you visit our site, including IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages viewed, referral URLs, and timestamps; and (c) cookies and similar technologies that help us remember your preferences and analyze site performance.

How We Use It

We use the information we collect to operate and enhance our services, personalize content, deliver newsletters, process submissions, respond to inquiries, monitor site performance, and protect against fraud or abuse. We may aggregate and anonymize data to understand trends and improve user experience. We do not sell your personal information. We share data only as necessary with service providers who assist with hosting, analytics, email delivery, security, or advertising, and they are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.

Cookies & Tracking

Cookies are small files stored on your device that enable certain site functions and analytics. We use first-party cookies for essential operations (such as remembering preferences) and third-party cookies to measure audience metrics. You can manage cookie preferences via your browser settings, including blocking or deleting cookies. Disabling cookies may affect some site features.

Third-Party Advertising

We may display third-party advertisements, including Google Ads. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Where required, we will request consent for personalized advertising. You can manage Google ad personalization via Google Ad Settings and learn more at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. We comply with Google’s Publisher Policies, including limitations on sensitive categories and requirements for clear labeling of ads. Third-party advertisers may collect or receive information from our site and use that information to provide measurement services and target ads. We do not have access to or control over cookies used by advertisers.

Data Protection

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. These measures include encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls, and periodic review of vendor security. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; therefore, while we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

External Links

Our site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site you visit via our links.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it promptly. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided personal data should contact us so we can take appropriate action.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will revise the “Last Updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
