Privacy & cookies

The New Roman Press is an online publication. You can read its articles without creating an account.

Reading the website

We do not use advertising trackers or third-party analytics, use analytics for advertising profiles, or sell personal information. The interactive globe runs using files served by this website and does not request your device location. There are no reader accounts, comment forms, payments, or newsletter signups.

Optional analytics

The New Roman Press uses first-party analytics only with your consent. We store protected hashes of random browser and visit identifiers, page paths, dates and times, and broad referral categories (direct, search, social, internal or other). We do not store full referring URLs, query strings, IP addresses or device fingerprints for analytics. These identifiers are pseudonymous, not anonymous. They estimate browsers, not individual people. Signed-in editors and recognizable bots are excluded.

Analytics is off until you choose Accept analytics. Reject analytics is equally available and does not restrict reading. We use this consent-first approach worldwide, including the EEA, UK and Switzerland. Consent is the basis for optional analytics processing where a legal basis is required. Open Cookie settings on any public page to change your choice. Rejecting withdraws consent, clears analytics cookies and deletes records linked to your current browser identifier from the active database. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing. Global Privacy Control disables analytics. We do not sell data or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Cookies and retention

Analytics events and consent records are kept for up to 90 days and cleared during normal maintenance. Withdrawal deletes linked records sooner. Automatic encrypted backups expire after fourteen days; manual or migration backups may last longer and are not used for analytics reports. Historic cookie-free aggregate counts are excluded from these reports and expire after a rolling year. Materially changed analytics purposes require fresh consent. Clearing cookies may cause the panel to reappear and prevents us from linking a later request to an earlier browser identifier.

Your choices and rights

The New Roman Press is responsible for this processing and operates in Virginia, United States. Email contact@newromanpress.com for privacy questions or requests for access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction or objection, as applicable under your local law. You may appeal a declined request by replying to our response with your reasons. We may need proportionate information to verify a request; do not send passwords or identity documents in your initial inquiry. Cookie settings also lets you directly delete analytics linked to this browser.

Where applicable, EEA and UK residents may complain to their local data protection authority, and Swiss residents to the FDPIC. Applicable US state laws may provide access, correction, deletion, portability, appeal, and opt-out rights. We do not sell data, conduct targeted advertising or use analytics for decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects. Exercising privacy choices does not change access to the publication.

Hosting and security

Render hosts the website and processes connection information, including IP addresses, to deliver and protect it. Render retains runtime logs for 7 days on the Hobby workspace plan. See Render's privacy policy for its data practices.

Our application does not store raw visitor IP addresses. Consented page-view records are described above. It temporarily stores protected representations of connection addresses to limit sign-in abuse; these records are normally removed within seventy-five minutes while the server is running. Security event records are retained for thirty days and removed during the next maintenance cycle. They do not include passwords or message content.

Hosting providers and authorized administrators process data to operate this service. Data may be processed in the United States or other countries used by our host. We do not transmit analytics to a separate analytics or advertising provider. Contact us for information about the hosting location and any applicable international-transfer safeguards.

Email

When you email us, we receive your address and the information you include. We use these details to handle your inquiry. Messages are stored in our mailbox and processed by our email provider.

Stored content

The CMS stores articles, drafts, and publication settings. Automatic encrypted backups are retained for fourteen days; manual backups may be kept longer. Private drafts and backups are not available to readers.

Links and updates

External websites have their own privacy policies. We will update this notice when our data practices change.
