When voluntarily submitted, such as via an email, comment, or contact form, your personal information (including name and email address) is used to fulfill specific requests, such as subscribing to and receiving our email newsletter, submitting information via a contact form, or submitting a comment.

We never sell your personal information to third parties.

As with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files includes your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as AOL or Xfinity), the browser you used to visit this website (such as Chrome or Firefox), the time you visited this website, and which pages you visited throughout this website.

Cookies & Web Beacons

We do use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit this website. This could include only showing you a pop-up once during your visit, or allowing you to save comment details.

We may also use third party advertisements on StrangerDimensions.com to support this website. Our advertising partners currently include: Google Adsense.

Google Adsense

Both personalized and non-personalized advertisements are served on StrangerDimensions.com via Google Adsense, depending upon visitor location.

Google uses cookies, such as the DART cookie, when they advertise on this website and other websites on the Internet, which allow them to serve relevant advertisements to users based on their interests and website viewing history (also known as “interest-based targeting”).

The ads served may be targeted based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing websites about bowling, you may see bowling advertisements when viewing a non-related website, such as on a website about hockey).

For more information, please visit Google’s page on how they use data when you use their partners’ sites or apps.

Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms

GDPR & CPRA

For those visiting from the European Economic Area (EEA), only non-personalized advertisements are served. These are contextual advertisements that do not use cookies for ads personalization, but are rather based on the subject matter of the page itself. They do, however, use necessary technical cookies for “frequency capping, aggregated ad reporting, and to combat fraud and abuse.”

Users from the EEA may consent to the use of personalized advertisements by clicking “consent” on the pop-up that appears when they first visit this website. If you’d later like to revoke consent, you may simply click here to revoke your choice: Privacy and cookie settings.

Users in the U.S. State of California, under the CPRA, or other states affected by similar acts, may opt out of ads personalization by navigating to the opt out confirmation link available via the banner at the bottom of this website.

If you are outside of the EEA or elsewhere and you’d like to opt out of Adsense ads personalization directly, you may do so at the following page:

https://www.google.com/settings/ads

Or, for a more thorough overview of your online advertisement opt-out options, you may visit the following page:

In general, you should consult the respective privacy policies of third-party ad servers for more detailed information on their practices as well as for instructions about how to opt-out of certain practices. For more information, you may view an updated list of various privacy policies here. StrangerDimensions.com’s privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or websites.
