How We Collect and Use Information
We collect two types of information: personal information you provide to us and non-personal information that is automatically collected.
Personal Information
This is information that can identify you, such as your name, email, mailing address, and phone number. You may provide us with this information when you:
- Subscribe to Allergy News or WikiAllergies.
- Sign up for our newsletters or special offers.
- Post a comment or classified ad.
- Contact us by email or letter.
- Participate in a promotion or survey.
- Register for one of our journalism programs.
You may also provide personal information on behalf of others, for example, to purchase a gift subscription.
Non-Personal Information
This is anonymous, aggregated information that does not identify you. We automatically collect it when you visit our website. This can include:
- Your browser type, language, and operating system.
- Your Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- The websites you visited before and after ours.
- The ads and links you click on our site.
We use small text files called cookies to help us collect this information. Cookies prevent you from repeatedly seeing the same ads or having to re-enter your password. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but please note this may affect some website functionalities. We use non-personal information for troubleshooting, analyzing traffic, and demographic research.
Sharing Your Information
We may share aggregated, non-personal information with advertisers, partners, and service providers. We will only share personal information if we believe it is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, or ensure the safety of our users or the public.
Data Security
We use commercially reasonable measures to protect your personal information, but we cannot guarantee that it will be completely secure. We are not liable for any loss, theft, or unauthorized access that may occur despite our security efforts.
Third-Party Websites and Advertising
We collaborate with third-party sites that have their own privacy policies and data collection methods. Allergy News is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these linked sites. We also use third-party advertising companies that may collect non-personal information about your visits to our site and others to provide you with relevant ads. If you wish to opt out of this practice, you can find more information here.
Children's Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not send us any personal information. If we discover we have received such information, we will delete it.
California Privacy Rights
California residents have the right to request a list of third parties to whom we have disclosed their personal information for direct marketing purposes in the previous year. To make this request, please email info@allergynewstoday.com. Please note that we do not honor "Do Not Track" requests.
