Effective Date: [15/0/2026] Last Updated: [15/07/2026]

[Website Name — e.g., randomread.net] (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have, including in connection with our use of Google Reader Revenue Manager and related Google services.

  • Surveys: Responses you submit to on-site surveys or polls.
  • Contributions/Subscriptions: If you make a one-time contribution or subscribe through our site (via Google Reader Revenue Manager and Google Pay), payment processing is handled by Google.

1.2 Information Collected Automatically

  • Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies for site functionality, analytics, and advertising (see Section 4).
  • Publisher Provided Identifiers (PPIDs): When you register or sign in through Google Reader Revenue Manager, a stable, hashed identifier tied to your Google Account may be generated and used as an audience signal for ad delivery, including on browsers that block third-party cookies.

We use Google Reader Revenue Manager, a service provided by Google, to offer features such as:

  • Newsletter sign-up forms
  • Surveys

When you interact with these features:

  • You may be signed in automatically using your existing Google Account.
  • Data you provide (email address, registration status, survey answers, subscription/contribution status) is shared with Google and may be used to personalize your experience, measure engagement, and — where you have not opted out — support relevant advertising.
  • This data may flow into Google Analytics and Google Ad Manager, which we use to understand site engagement and manage advertising, including audience signals for ad auctions on browsers with limited third-party cookie support.
  • Cancellations of paid subscriptions or contributions initiated through Reader Revenue Manager should be made using the cancellation option provided on our site or through your Google Account subscriptions page, in accordance with Google’s requirements.

Google’s own handling of your data through Reader Revenue Manager, Google Pay, and your Google Account is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
