Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 10, 2026.

Dusty Notebook ("we," "us," or "this site") respects your privacy. This page explains what information is collected when you visit dustynotebook.com, and how it's used.


Information We Collect

We don't ask you to create an account or hand over personal information just to read this blog. The only information we collect is:

Email address, if you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter or contact us directly
Basic usage data (like pages visited, time on site, general location, and device/browser type), collected automatically through analytics tools


Cookies

This site uses cookies — small files stored on your device — to help it function properly and to understand how visitors use the site. Cookies may be used for:

  • Basic site functionality
  • Analytics (understanding which pages are popular, how long visitors stay)
  • Advertising (see below)

You can disable cookies through your browser settings at any time, though some site features may not work as intended without them.


Third-Party Advertising

Dusty Notebook may display ads served by Google AdSense and other third-party advertising partners. These companies may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites, in order to serve ads based on your interests.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.


Affiliate Links

Some posts on Dusty Notebook contain affiliate links — meaning if you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products, books, and tools we've genuinely used or believe in, in line with the honesty this blog is built on.


Analytics

We use tools like Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site — which pages are read, how long people stay, and general traffic patterns. This data is aggregated and anonymized; it does not identify you personally.


Third-Party Links

This site may link to other websites (books, tools, resources, social platforms). We aren't responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites — we'd encourage you to review their own privacy policies.


Children's Privacy

Dusty Notebook is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
