Privacy Policy

Updated: September 16, 2026

Who We Are

Fathom Facts operates fathomfacts.com, and this notice describes what happens to the information you share with us while you browse. Our goal is to collect as little as possible and to be upfront about everything we do collect. If you do not agree with this policy, please stop using the site.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our pages may set first-party cookies and allow selected third parties to set their own. Third-party cookies may be set by Google Analytics and our advertising partners. You can change your mind at any time by clearing cookies and revisiting the site.

Types of Information

Reading Fathom Facts does not require an account, so the data we see is limited. Automatically logged details may include an approximate location derived from your IP address, your screen size, language settings, and the pages you open.

If you write to us or join our newsletter, we also receive your name, email address and whatever you include in your message.

Partners We Work With

Fathom Facts relies on outside companies for hosting, analytics and advertising. Analytics are provided by Google Analytics; ad placements may be managed by Google AdSense. Third parties are responsible for their own processing, and their policies govern it.

Sharing With Others

We keep sharing to a minimum. Processors such as our email platform and host see data only to perform services for us.

We do not share email addresses with advertisers.

How We Protect Data

We take security seriously and review our setup regularly. Even so, the internet is never entirely risk-free.

Keeping Information

We keep personal information only as long as we need it. Contact messages are kept for up to 26 months unless a longer period is required by law.

Cross-Border Transfers

Information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions with different data protection laws.

Controlling Your Information

Privacy laws such as the GDPR and the CCPA give you control over your information. You may also have the right to data portability and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Requests can be sent to [email protected]; we answer within four weeks of verification.

Policy Changes

We review this page periodically and may revise it. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last revised.
