Privacy Policy

What this site collects directly

Low & Slow Ledger is a reading site. There is no account system, no comment form, no newsletter and no upload. The only personal data the site itself receives is what you choose to put in an email to [email protected]: your address, your message, and anything you include in it. Those messages are kept only as long as needed to answer them.

Server access logs record the usual technical fields — IP address, timestamp, requested path, user agent, referrer — and are retained for a short operational window for security and traffic measurement. They are not linked to any profile.

Advertising and Google AdSense

This site is supported by advertising and uses Google AdSense. 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 visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info. Where required, a consent message is shown before any non-essential cookie is set, and advertising cookies are only used after consent is given.

DoubleClick and third-party vendors

Google uses the DoubleClick DART cookie, which enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and other sites on the Internet. Third-party ad networks and vendors may also place or read cookies and similar identifiers on your browser, and may collect device and usage data such as approximate location derived from IP address, browser type and pages viewed.

These vendors operate under their own privacy policies. We do not control the cookies they set, and we do not receive the personal data they collect.

Your rights under GDPR

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you have the right to be informed, of access, to rectification, to erasure, to restrict processing, to data portability, and to object to processing based on legitimate interests, as well as the right to withdraw consent at any time and the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

The lawful bases we rely on are consent (for advertising cookies and any optional analytics) and legitimate interests (for security logging and measuring whether the site is working). Requests relating to these rights can be sent to the address below and are answered within thirty days. To exercise choices specific to advertising cookies, use the consent message available on this site and the Google Ads Settings link above.

Your rights under CCPA and CPRA

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what categories of personal information are collected and for what purposes, the right to request deletion, the right to correct inaccurate information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and the right to limit the use of sensitive personal information. The categories involved here are internet or network activity and identifiers, used for advertising and for site security.

Low & Slow Ledger does not sell personal information for money. Where advertising cookies are treated as a "sale" or "share" under California law, you can opt out through the consent message shown on this site or by using the opt-out links above. You will not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

Children, transfers and changes

This site is not directed to children under sixteen and does not knowingly collect their personal information. Data may be processed on servers outside your country, including in the United States, by us and by the advertising vendors described above.

If this policy changes materially, the change is reflected in the date at the top of this page. Questions about any of the above can be sent to the contact address.
