Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 24, 2026

At New York Journals, we understand that privacy is important to our readers. This privacy policy outlines the types of personal information we collect, how we use it, and the steps we take to protect it.

Information Collection

We collect information from our users in a variety of ways, including when they visit our website, sign up for our newsletter, or participate in surveys and contests. This information may include names, email addresses, and other personal information.

Use of Information

The information we collect from our users is used to improve the content and services we offer. This may include using your email address to send you our newsletter or to contact you about contests and promotions. We may also use your information to respond to your questions and inquiries.

Protection of Information

New York Journals takes the protection of your personal information very seriously. We use a variety of security measures, including encryption and secure servers, to protect your information from unauthorized access and theft. We also regularly monitor our systems to detect and prevent any security breaches.

Data Retention

New York Journals retains user information for as long as it is necessary to provide our services and to comply with legal requirements. We will delete your personal information when it is no longer required for these purposes.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

When you visit our website, our servers and the services described below automatically collect technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you view, the page that referred you, and the date and time of your visit. Some of this information is collected through cookies, which are small files stored in your browser. We and our service providers use cookies to keep the site working and secure, to measure how the site is used, and to serve and measure advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some parts of the site may not work as intended if you do.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how readers use our website. Google may set cookies and collect information about your visit for this purpose. You can learn more at How Google uses information from sites that use its services and opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. We also use PostHog, a product analytics service hosted in the United States, to measure page views and site usage. Session recording is switched off.

Advertising

We use Google AdSense to show advertising on our website.

  • 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 My Ad Center (Ads Settings). You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info, or, in Europe, at youronlinechoices.eu.

More about how Google uses information in advertising is available at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information only with service providers that help us run the website, such as our web hosting provider, email providers, Google (analytics and advertising) and PostHog (analytics), and only as far as they need it to provide their services. We may also disclose information when the law requires it. Some of these providers are based in the United States, so your information may be processed outside the country where you live.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or California, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to opt out of personalized advertising. To make a request, email us at [email protected].

Children

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to Privacy Policy

New York Journals may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices and to comply with new regulations. If we make any changes to our privacy policy, we will update this page and notify our users of the changes.
