RexJacob.com ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you visit rexjacob.com and your rights regarding that information. This is a personal writing site — there are no accounts, logins, or forms to fill in.
RexJacob.com is a participant in the Amazon Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.in. When you click on a book or product link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this website. Google and its third-party vendors may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com), and learn more at Google's own advertising and privacy pages.
The cookies on this site come primarily from Google AdSense, which (with its vendors) may set advertising cookies to deliver and personalise ads. This site does not use analytics cookies, and it does not use Google Analytics or any similar analytics service. Separately, your browser's local storage is used to remember which articles you have liked and which you have viewed during a session — this is stored in your own browser, is not personally identifying, and is not sent to us as personal data. You can control or clear cookies and local storage through your browser settings.
Each article shows a simple count of views and likes. These are anonymous running totals only — a number per article. We do not record who viewed or liked anything, build any profile of you, or store any information that could identify you. The local flags described above simply stop the same person being counted twice in a session and remember a like you have already given.
We do not ask for or directly collect personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details. There are no sign-ups, accounts, or contact forms on this site. The only personal information we ever see is what you choose to send us by email, and that is used only to reply to you.
This site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. As part of delivering and protecting the site, our host may process standard technical data such as your IP address and request logs. The site also loads fonts from Google Fonts and ads from Google AdSense, which means Google's servers may receive your IP address when those resources load. These providers handle that data under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.
This website contains links to Amazon.in and other third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites.
RexJacob.com is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. Some essays are written with teenagers and young adults in mind, but the site is intended for a general audience.
