Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy outlines how Every Bit Texas collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit our website. We are committed to ensuring your privacy is protected and being transparent about how we handle data to remain compliant with Google's requirements and global privacy standards.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide better services to all our users. The types of information we collect include:

• Personal Information: This includes names, email addresses, or phone numbers, but only when you voluntarily provide them (e.g., signing up for a newsletter or filling out a contact form).
• Log Data: Like most websites, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit. This may include your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the time spent on those pages.
• Edge Analytics and Tracking: We utilize first-party edge-routing infrastructure (Cloudflare Zaraz) to securely process site performance and behavioral metrics before data reaches external networks. This minimizes the exposure of personal digital identifiers to third parties.

2. How We Use Your Information

Every Bit Texas uses the collected data for several purposes:

• To maintain and improve our website content and user experience.
• To notify you about updates or Texas-sized news (if you've opted in).
• To monitor usage patterns, traffic anomalies, and technical platform issues.
• To provide personalized advertisements through third-party partners.

3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising

We may use Google AdSense and other third-party advertising companies to serve ads.

• The DART Cookie: Google uses cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites.
• Opt-Out: You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings .
• Third-Party Vendors: Other vendors or ad networks may also use cookies to serve ads on our site. You can visit those specific websites to opt out of cookies for personalized advertising (if the vendor offers this capability).

4. Cookies & Consent Management (Google Consent Mode v2)

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We utilize an on-screen consent management interface to give you explicit control over your data.

In strict compliance with Google Consent Mode v2, no data regarding analytics storage (analytics_storage), advertising user data (ad_user_data), or ad personalization (ad_personalization) is captured, transmitted, or processed server-side until you explicitly grant permission through our consent interface.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. You can update or completely revoke your consent preferences at any time by clearing your browser cache or resetting your cookie settings. Please note that if you do not accept cookies, some portions of Every Bit Texas may not function as intended.

5. Cloudflare Turnstile (Bot Protection)

Every Bit Texas uses Cloudflare Turnstile, a privacy-preserving bot detection tool developed by Cloudflare, Inc. Turnstile operates as an alternative to traditional CAPTCHA systems and processes minimal technical signals solely to distinguish human visitors from automated bots.

Cloudflare's processing of these signals is governed by the Cloudflare Turnstile Privacy Addendum , which supplements Cloudflare's main Privacy Policy. Key points relevant to visitors of this site:

• Purpose: Turnstile collects only what is strictly necessary to detect and block malicious bot traffic. It is not used to identify, profile, or target individuals.
• Data Processor Role: Cloudflare acts as a data processor on behalf of Every Bit Texas (the data controller). Signals are processed to secure this website pursuant to our instructions.
• Signals Collected: Turnstile may process browser and device characteristics (such as user agent, headers, and session signals) to perform its bot detection function.
• No Ad Targeting: Turnstile data is not used for advertising or marketing purposes.
• Data Rights: If you have questions about or wish to exercise data protection rights related to Cloudflare's processing of Turnstile signals on our behalf, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

This Addendum also applies to any use of Cloudflare's Challenge Platform on this site.

6. Data Protection & Security

The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable, modern cloud protocols to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

7. Your Rights (CCPA/GDPR Compliance)

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:

• The right to access: You can request copies of your personal data.
• The right to rectification: You can request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate.
• The right to erasure: You can request that we erase your personal data under certain conditions.

8. Links to Other Sites

Our website may contain links to other sites (like local Texas businesses or resources). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date below.
