Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 8, 2026
Review of a Review ("we", "us", "our") operates reviewofareview.com. This page explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.
What We Collect
We aim to collect as little as possible. Here's what we do collect:
Analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand how people use the site. Cloudflare Web Analytics is a privacy-first analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not collect personal data. It tracks page views, referrers, and basic browser/device information in aggregate.
Voting Data
When you vote on a review (agree/disagree), we store your vote locally in your browser's localStorage to prevent duplicate voting. The vote itself is sent to our backend (AWS Lambda + DynamoDB) as an anonymous count — we do not store any personal information with your vote. No account or login is required.
Advertising Cookies
We use Google AdSense (publisher ID: ca-pub-6080638705698707) to display advertisements. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. These cookies allow Google and its partners to serve personalized or non-personalized ads depending on your consent preferences.
Google's advertising cookies may collect:
- Browser type and settings
- Device information
- Browsing activity across websites that use Google's ad services
- IP address (for approximate location-based ads)
- Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks)
You can manage your Google ad personalization settings at adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices.
Google Consent Management
We use Google's Funding Choices consent management platform. When required by your jurisdiction, you will see a consent dialog that lets you choose your cookie preferences before any advertising cookies are set.
Third-Party Services
We rely on the following third-party services:
- Google AdSense — advertising and ad cookies. Google Privacy Policy
- Cloudflare — Web Analytics and CDN. Cloudflare Privacy Policy
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) — hosting (S3), vote API (Lambda, DynamoDB). AWS Privacy Policy
- Google Fonts — web fonts loaded from Google's servers. Google Privacy Policy
Cookies
Here's a breakdown of cookies and storage used on this site:
| Type | Source | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Advertising cookies | Google AdSense | Serve and personalize ads |
| Consent cookie | Google Funding Choices | Remember your consent preferences |
| localStorage | This site | Track your votes locally to prevent duplicates |
We do not set any first-party tracking cookies.
GDPR Rights (EU Users)
If you are in the European Union, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation:
- Right to access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you
- Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate data
- Right to erasure — request deletion of your data
- Right to restrict processing — request that we limit how we use your data
- Right to object — object to processing of your data for certain purposes
- Right to data portability — request your data in a machine-readable format
Since we collect minimal data and no accounts exist, most of these rights are satisfied by default. If you have concerns, contact us and we'll sort it out.
Data Retention
Vote counts are stored indefinitely in aggregate form. No personal data is attached to votes. localStorage data persists until you clear your browser data.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Nothing sneaky.
