Palm Springs Review (“PSR,” “we,” “us” or “our”) publishes travel, local-interest and commercial information about Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley. This Privacy Policy explains the information we collect through PalmSpringsReview.com, how we use and disclose it, and the choices available to you.
Information we collect
Information you provide
- Contact information and messages. If you use our contact form, we collect the name, email address and message you submit.
- Newsletter information. If email subscriptions are offered and you subscribe, we collect your email address and related subscription preferences.
- Business and partnership inquiries. We collect information you provide when requesting a correction, proposing a partnership or communicating about advertising, sponsorship or a listing.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the site, we and our service providers may automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring and exit pages, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address, dates and times of access, interactions with site features, and cookie or similar identifiers.
We use Google Analytics and related website-measurement tools to understand traffic, content performance and site usage. We may also measure outbound clicks to businesses, booking providers, affiliate partners and other third-party sites. PSR uses CookieYes to present and record consent choices. Where required, nonessential analytics or advertising technologies are controlled according to those choices.
How we use information
- Operate, secure, maintain and improve the site.
- Respond to messages, corrections, privacy requests and business inquiries.
- Understand readership, traffic sources and content performance.
- Measure affiliate, referral and commercial activity.
- Detect fraud, spam, abuse and security incidents.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
Cookies and similar technologies
PSR and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage and similar technologies for necessary site functions, security, analytics, preferences and, if later enabled, advertising. Details appear in our Cookie Policy. You may use the CookieYes Consent Preferences control displayed on the site to change nonessential-cookie choices at any time.
How we disclose information
We may disclose information to service providers that support hosting, security, analytics, forms, email delivery, site functionality and commercial measurement. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, in connection with a business transfer, or at your direction.
Third-party links, embedded content and booking or affiliate providers operate under their own privacy policies. PSR does not control their data practices.
Selling and sharing
PSR does not knowingly sell personal information for money. Certain analytics, advertising or affiliate technologies may be treated as “sharing,” targeted advertising or a sale under some privacy laws, depending on how they are used. You may submit an opt-out request through Your Privacy Choices. We will also process legally recognized browser-based opt-out signals where required and technically supported.
Data retention
We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining security and business records, resolving disputes and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods vary by the type of information and the service provider involved.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your privacy rights and choices
Depending on where you live and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion or portability of personal information; object to or restrict certain processing; withdraw consent; or opt out of certain selling, sharing or targeted advertising. We may need to verify your request and may retain information when legally permitted or required. You will not be discriminated against for exercising an applicable privacy right.
To make a request, visit Your Privacy Choices or use the contact form and select or write “Privacy Request” in your message. Authorized agents may submit requests where applicable, subject to verification.
Children
The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
International visitors
PSR is operated from the United States. Information may be processed in the United States and other countries where service providers operate. Where required, we request consent before using nonessential cookies and provide rights applicable to visitors in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and other jurisdictions.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site, its services or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date will identify the latest revision.
