The short version
We collect as little as possible. If you email us, we see your message. When you browse, standard technical logs exist, as they do on nearly every website. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not ask for your dog's medical records, your policy details or anything sensitive.
Information you choose to share
If you email us or use our contact page, we receive whatever you include in that message, such as your name, email address and the details you write. Please do not send sensitive medical, financial or insurance policy information. We only use what you send to read and reply to your message.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting and analytics services may process standard technical information when you visit: browser type, device, approximate location, the page that referred you and how you move through the site. This helps us understand what readers find useful and keep the site running well. It is not used to identify you personally.
Affiliate links and partners
Some links on this site are affiliate links, as explained in our affiliate disclosure. When you click one, the partner may use its own cookies or similar technologies to attribute the referral. Once you leave GreatDaneInsurance.com, the partner's own privacy policy governs what it collects, and we encourage you to read it before sharing anything with them.
How we use information
We use information to operate and protect the site, understand readership, respond to messages, correct content and measure affiliate referrals. We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not share it with third parties except the service providers that help us run the site, who are bound by their own privacy obligations.
Cookies and your choices
You can limit or block cookies through your browser settings, and the site will still be readable. You can also avoid affiliate attribution entirely by navigating directly to a provider's website instead of clicking our links. If you have emailed us and would like your messages deleted, just ask and we will take care of it.
Data retention and security
We keep correspondence only as long as it is useful for an ongoing conversation or a legal obligation, and we take reasonable measures to protect the small amount of information we hold. No website can promise perfect security, so we prefer simply not to collect much in the first place.
Children
This site is written for adults researching pet insurance and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site evolves. The "last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision, and continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
Contact
Privacy questions may be sent to bestdoginsurance@gmail.com, or through our contact page. We read every message and reply personally.
