🔐 Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12th June 2025

We respect your privacy — even if we joke about your browser history. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe. We’re not into shady stuff, and we won’t sell your data to dodgy operators in trench coats.

1. Who We Are

The Dinkume Digest is a media site offering commentary, satire, and opinions that may or may not change the world. We are not an established media company and didn’t even finish university or graduate from a journalism school……

You can email us!

2. What Information We Collect

🧠 Automatically (when you visit):

  • Your IP address
  • Browser type
  • What pages you looked at (via analytics)
  • Device info (e.g. phone, laptop, smart fridge)

We use tools like Google Analytics to help us understand what people actually read and what they bounce off faster than a dodgy sausage roll.

📬 If you subscribe or contact us:

  • Your email address
  • Whatever name you gave us (real or otherwise)
  • The messages you send us (we read them, even the weird ones)

3. Why We Collect It

We use your data to:

  • Run the website
  • Improve content
  • Send you emails if you’ve signed up
  • Count how many people laughed at a post (and how many just got angry)

We do not use your data to stalk you, sell it, or make AI clones of your personality.

4. Who We Share It With

  • Nobody weird.
  • We use third-party services (e.g. Google, email platforms like MailerLite or Beehiiv)
  • These providers process data only to help us operate the site or send newsletters

We won’t share your info with third parties for marketing unless you explicitly agree — and we’d tell you first, like decent humans.

5. Cookies 🍪

Yes, we use cookies. Not the Arnott’s kind — the little digital trackers that help:

  • Remember your preferences
  • Count visits
  • Let ads or embeds work properly

You can block cookies in your browser. Just know the site might act weird or slightly sad.

7. Your Rights (If you are a UK or European Citizen)

Under GDPR, you can:

  • Ask what info we have on you
  • Request corrections or deletion
  • Tell us to stop emailing you
  • Lodge a complaint with the ICO if we really mess things up (we hope you talk to us first)

7. Data Storage

We keep data as long as needed — e.g. while you're subscribed or until you ghost us. Then it’s deleted, archived, or anonymised like it never existed.

We store all personal data securely using reputable platforms.

8. Changes to This Policy

We’ll update this policy if the law changes, or if Baz adds a form that accidentally collects blood type. We’ll post the update here and, if it’s big, email you.
