Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 2025
National Consumer Post ("we," "us," or "our") operates nationalconsumerpost.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
We keep data collection minimal. When you visit the Site, our hosting provider may automatically log standard technical information, including your IP address, browser type, device type, referring pages, and the dates and times of access. These server logs are used for security, capacity planning, and diagnosing technical problems.
If you contact us by email, we receive the information you choose to include, such as your name, email address, and the contents of your message.
How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and secure the Site;
- To respond to inquiries, corrections, and story suggestions;
- To understand aggregate, non-identifying usage patterns;
- To comply with applicable legal obligations.
Cookies
The Site does not set advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Our hosting infrastructure may use strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies for security and load balancing. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies; the Site will continue to function.
Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may share information only: (a) with service providers that host and secure the Site, under obligations of confidentiality; (b) if required by law, subpoena, or legal process; or (c) to protect the rights, safety, or property of our readers, the public, or ourselves.
Third-Party Links
Articles may link to external websites, including government consumer protection resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Data Retention
Server logs are retained by our hosting provider for a limited period consistent with routine security practice. Email correspondence is retained only as long as needed to address your inquiry and for reasonable record-keeping.
Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. Because we collect very little personal information, most requests can be resolved quickly. To exercise any right, contact us using the details below. We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights.
Security
We use reputable hosting infrastructure with industry-standard safeguards, including encryption in transit (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
