The short version
This site has no accounts, no newsletters, no comment forms and no tracking of our own. The personal data story here is almost entirely about two things: standard server logs kept by our hosting provider, and cookies set by our advertising partner. Both are described below.
Information we collect directly
We do not require or knowingly collect personal information to serve this site. We run no first-party analytics. If you email us at feedback@dowjonestoday.net, we receive your address and message and use them only to reply; we don't add you to lists or share the correspondence.
Hosting and server logs
The site is served by Cloudflare, whose infrastructure automatically processes technical request data (IP address, user agent, requested URL) for security and delivery purposes, retained per Cloudflare's own policies. We do not access or store this data ourselves.
Advertising and cookies
We use Google AdSense to display advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies (including, where applicable, personalized advertising identifiers) to serve and measure ads:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ad Settings, or opt out of many third-party vendors' cookies at aboutads.info.
Where required (for example in the EEA and UK), a consent mechanism is presented before advertising cookies are set, and non-personalized ads may be shown to users who decline.
Your rights
EEA/UK (GDPR): where advertising processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time via the consent tool or the Google links above; you also have rights of access, rectification and erasure over data we hold directly (in practice: email correspondence). California (CCPA/CPRA): we do not sell personal information ourselves; advertising cookie activity that could constitute "sharing" can be controlled via the opt-out links above. For any request, contact feedback@dowjonestoday.net.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
