    Your reading stays yours

    The Daily Read has no advertising, third-party analytics, tracking cookies, user accounts, or behavioral profiles.

    What the server stores

    We keep anonymous daily totals for category visits, aggregate story-open counts, and operational feed-health information. Story totals help show what readers find interesting, but we do not store IP addresses, user agents, identities, or individual browsing histories.

    What stays in your browser

    Your appearance settings, time-zone preference, default category, bookmarks, AI visibility preference, and read-story status stay on this device. A functional preference cookie selects your default page; it is not used to track you.

    External services

    AI briefings send public RSS headline information—not personal visitor data—to the configured AI service. City searches and rounded coordinates are sent through this server to Open-Meteo for optional weather; your selection remains in this browser and is not added to analytics. News, Reddit, YouTube, Steam, and giveaway links follow the destination site's own privacy policy when opened.
