Privacy Policy
Last updated: [Month Day, Year]
This privacy policy explains how Word Junkie ("the site", "we", "us"), run by [Your Name or Business Name], handles information when you visit https://dailywordjunkie.com. We keep things simple: there are no accounts, no sign-ups and no forms on this site.
Information we collect
We do not ask you for any personal information. Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard server log data, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit and the time of your visit. This is used to keep the site running, secure and fast.
If you email us, we will receive your email address and whatever you choose to include in your message, and we will use it only to reply to you.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. The site itself does not currently need cookies to work. However, we may add analytics or advertising in the future, and those services may use cookies or similar technologies, as described below. You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.
Advertising (including Google AdSense)
We may show ads from third-party advertising partners, such as Google AdSense, to help cover the cost of running the site. If we do:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.
- To learn more, see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Where the law requires it (for example, for visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland), we will ask for your consent before non-essential cookies are set.
Third-party links and content
The site links to other websites, such as Wiktionary and The New York Times, and Buy Me a Coffee. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, so please read their policies too.
Support button (Buy Me a Coffee)
Some pages include a "buy me a coffee" button so you can support the site if you'd like to. It is a plain link to our page on Buy Me a Coffee (https://buymeacoffee.com/wordjunkie), a third-party service. We do not load any Buy Me a Coffee scripts, widgets or cookies on this site; nothing is shared with them unless you click the link.
If you choose to send a tip, the payment is handled entirely by Buy Me a Coffee and its payment processors, not by us. We never see or store your card details. Buy Me a Coffee may share your name, email address, the amount and any message you leave with us so we can see who supported the site; how they collect and use your information is governed by their own privacy policy and terms.
Children's privacy
This site is meant for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information we hold about you, or to object to how it is used. To make a request, email us at [[email protected]].
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
