Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 3, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Longtime ("we," "us," or "our") handles information when you visit longtime.live, read articles, or follow links to outside resources (collectively, the "Site").
Information We Collect
We collect limited information depending on how you use the Site:
- Information you provide: If you contact us directly, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your name, email address, and message content.
- Technical information: Our hosting provider may automatically log standard server data such as IP address, browser type, referring page, requested URL, and timestamps to operate and secure the Site.
- Advertising information: This Site uses Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers to serve ads, limit ad frequency, prevent fraud, and measure ad performance.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
- Respond to messages and support requests.
- Protect the Site against abuse, fraud, and security incidents.
- Comply with legal obligations.
How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help us run the Site, when required by law, or to protect the rights and safety of Longtime, our readers, and others.
Because the Site uses Google AdSense, third parties may place and read cookies on your browser or use web beacons and IP addresses to collect information as a result of ad serving on the Site. Learn more about how Google uses data when you use partner sites or apps.
Cookies and Advertising Choices
You can manage cookies and advertising preferences through your browser settings and Google's advertising controls. If we add optional analytics or other tools in the future, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for consent before using non-essential cookies.
Data Retention and Security
We retain information only for as long as needed to operate the Site, respond to enquiries, and meet legal requirements. We use reasonable measures to protect information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal information. You may also be able to object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
International Visitors
If you access the Site from outside the country where we operate, your information may be processed in countries with different data protection laws than your own.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
