Website analytics

This privacy notice applies to Dog Breed Guide at dogbreedguide.org. Dog Breed Guide is responsible for the information described here. Effective date: January 1, 2026.

We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google, to measure visits and improve the website. Google Analytics uses first-party cookies and may receive information such as the pages viewed, page titles, referring site, approximate geographic area, device and browser type, and clicks on external links. We enable email and sensitive-query-parameter redaction and ask visitors not to place personal information in URLs.

Google Analytics is not used here for advertising, cross-site measurement, User-ID, Google Signals, or fingerprinting. Event-level information remains in Google Analytics for two months. We may retain a copy in a restricted US-based analytics warehouse for historical, backup, and audit purposes without an automatic deletion date. Reports outside restricted staging do not include cookie or session IDs, URL query strings, or complete outbound URLs.

Browser controls allow you to disable or delete cookies. You can also install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on to prevent Google Analytics from measuring your visits. Information already processed cannot be recalled through these controls.

We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics for website traffic and performance statistics. Cloudflare describes this service as cookie-free, without local storage, and says visitor IP addresses are discarded. More information is available in Google's Privacy Policy , Google's explanation of how it uses information from sites that use its services and Cloudflare's Web Analytics documentation.
