Privacy Policy

Rapid City Gazette ("we," "us") operates https://rapidcitygazette.com. This policy explains what information is collected when you visit and how it is used.

Information We Collect

We collect information automatically through cookies and similar technologies: IP address, browser type, device identifiers, referring URLs, and pages viewed. If you email us, we receive whatever you choose to send. The headline and weather features cache data in your browser's local storage; that data never leaves your device.

Advertising & Analytics

We use Google AdSense (publisher ID pub-3415300754694996) to display ads and Google Analytics to understand traffic. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info. We also participate in the Amazon Associates program (identifier ais3000-20), which may use cookies to attribute purchases.

Third-Party Services

Pages embed services from Google (ads, analytics), PayPal (support button), Google News (headline data), and the National Weather Service (forecast data). Each has its own privacy policy.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data. Contact info@rapidcitygazette.com. California residents may have additional rights under the CCPA.

Children

This site is general-audience and does not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
