Privacy Policy
Plain-English, honest, and as short as it can responsibly be.
This privacy policy explains how UpdateArticles (updatearticle.com) handles information when you visit. In keeping with the spirit of the whole site, it is written to be understood rather than to protect anyone from you, and it errs toward collecting as little as possible.
The Short Version
UpdateArticles is a publication, not a data business. We do not sell your data, we do not build advertising profiles about you, and we collect only what a normal website unavoidably touches in order to function and to understand, in aggregate, what readers find useful.
Information Collected Automatically
Like virtually every website, our servers and analytics record basic technical information when you visit: your browser type, your general region, which pages you view and the site you arrived from. This is standard traffic data, it is looked at in aggregate to see which guides are helping people, and it is not used to identify you personally.
Cookies and Analytics
updatearticle.com may use cookies and privacy-conscious analytics to understand how the site is used — which guides are read, how people arrive, and where things could be clearer. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time, and the site will continue to work. We do not use cookies to follow you around the web.
If You Contact Us
When you send a message through the contact page, we receive the information you choose to include — typically your name, email address and your message. We use it solely to reply to you and, where relevant, to improve or create a guide. We do not add you to a marketing list, and we do not share it.
Third-Party Links
Guides on UpdateArticles sometimes link to other websites when they are genuinely the best source. Once you follow a link away from updatearticle.com, that site’s own privacy practices apply, and we have no control over them. It is always worth reviewing the privacy policy of any site you share information with.
Your Choices
You can browse updatearticle.com without providing any personal information at all. You can control cookies through your browser. And if you have contacted us and would like your message and details deleted, simply ask through the contact page and we will remove them.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted here. Because keeping things current is the whole idea behind the name UpdateArticles, any material change will be reflected on this page rather than left out of date.
Contact
Any question about privacy on updatearticle.com can be sent through our contact page, and it will reach a real person.
