Privacy Policy

Last reviewed on May 4, 2026

1. Who this applies to

This privacy policy describes how MonthlyCalendar.net ("the Site") handles information about visitors. It applies to every page on the monthlycalendar.net domain. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

2. What data is collected

2.1 Server logs

When you load a page, our hosting provider records standard request data: your IP address, the page you requested, the referring page, the date and time, your user agent, and HTTP status. This is the same information that almost every web server records by default and is used to keep the Site running and to detect abuse.

2.2 Analytics

The Site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are visited and how visitors arrive. Google Analytics sets cookies and may collect: pages viewed, approximate location (typically city-level, derived from IP), device and browser information, and aggregated session data. IP addresses are truncated by Google before storage. You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

2.3 Information you send

If you email contact@monthlycalendar.net, we receive whatever you put in that email — your address, your subject line, and the message. We use it only to respond to you and we do not add it to any mailing list.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

The Site uses cookies for analytics and advertising. The categories in use are:

• Analytics cookies set by Google Analytics, as described above.
• Advertising cookies set by Google AdSense and the advertising networks Google works with, used to choose which ads to show you and to measure ad performance.

For more on the specific cookies in use and how to manage them, see the cookies page.

4. Google AdSense and ad personalization

The Site uses Google AdSense to show ads. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technology to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other sites. You can review and control the data Google uses for personalized ads at Google Ads Settings, and you can read Google's policies in the How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services page.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may also use other cookies, identifiers, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. To opt out of personalized advertising from many ad networks at once, visit aboutads.info (US) or youronlinechoices.com (EU/UK).

5. How the data is used

• To serve the pages you request.
• To understand which pages people read and which years/months are most useful.
• To show advertising that funds the Site.
• To investigate abuse, scraping, or security incidents.
• To respond to messages you send to us.

The Site does not sell personal information.

6. Third-party services

• Google Analytics — page-view analytics.
• Google AdSense — advertising.
• Hosting provider — serves the static HTML files.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. Following an external link from this Site takes you to a third-party site that we do not control.

7. Your privacy rights

7.1 EEA / UK (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar rules, you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request correction or deletion, object to or restrict processing, and request data portability. The legal basis for our processing is your consent (for non-essential cookies) and our legitimate interest in operating and funding the Site.

7.2 California (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect about you, to request deletion, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and to non-discrimination for exercising those rights.

7.3 How to exercise these rights

Email contact@monthlycalendar.net with the word "privacy" in the subject. We will respond within the time required by the applicable law.

8. Data retention

Server logs are kept for the period set by our hosting provider (typically a few weeks). Google Analytics data is retained according to the property's retention setting, currently 14 months. Email correspondence is kept for as long as needed to handle your request and any follow-up.

9. Children

The Site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

10. International transfers

The Site is operated globally. Information may be processed in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, we rely on standard contractual clauses or other approved mechanisms.

11. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes in any meaningful way, the "Last reviewed" date at the top of this page will be updated. Material changes will be highlighted on the homepage for at least seven days.
