Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 26, 2023

What’s New?

  • We’ve added Google’s Site Kit, Rank Math, and Cloudflare onto the website. No personally identifiable information is collected.
  • We’ve actively disclosed Jetpack Stats, which was supposed to be on the policy in the first place.
  • Reworded some paragraphs for clarity.
  • Added disclosures on the policy about third-party websites.
  • Removed language related to products (because, as of now, we aren’t a webshop).
  • Added links to help make the website more accessible, and to contextualize the usages of certain services.

Privacy Statement

This privacy policy discloses the privacy practices for The Wire Clippers and wireclippers.org. This privacy notice applies solely to information collected by this website and does not apply to third-party embeds or websites. It will notify you of the following:

  1. What personally identifiable information is collected from you through the website, how it is used and with whom it may be shared.
  2. What choices are available to you regarding the use of your data.
  3. The security procedures in place to protect the misuse of your information.
  4. How you can correct any inaccuracies in the information.

Information Collection, Use, and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.

We employ the usage of Cloudflare Analytics, Jetpack Stats (run by Automattic Inc.), and Rank Math’s 404 monitor to determine how often our website is being viewed, what’s being viewed, and to help fix bad/404 links. All of these platforms are completely anonymous.

This website utilises Google’s Search Console, a basic analytics and web optimization platform that helps us determine where people are searching our website from. Data about the device you’re searching from (mobile, desktop), the country you’re searching from, and what terms you used to view our website are collected. No personally identifiable information is collected.

We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g. inquiring about a sponsorship request.

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you in the future to tell you about our ventures or changes to our privacy policy. You can opt out at any time by clicking “unsubscribe.”
