Privacy Policy

Overview

Fair Dinkum Aussie Slang ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit fairdinkumslang.au, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information We Collect

We don't require you to create an account or hand over personal details to browse the dictionary, play the word games, or read articles on this site. The information we do collect comes mainly from automated tools:

• Usage data — pages visited, time on site, device and browser type, approximate location (city/country level), and referring website, collected via Google Analytics.
• Cookies and similar technologies — small files stored on your device to remember preferences, measure traffic, and support advertising (see below).
• Voluntary information — if you ever contact us directly, we'll have whatever you choose to include in that message (e.g. your email address).

Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site running smoothly, understand how it's used, and show relevant ads. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time, though some parts of the site (like saved quiz progress) may not work as well without them.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site — which pages are popular, how people find us, and how the site performs. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this data in aggregate and anonymised form. You can learn more about how Google handles this data, and opt out, via Google's Privacy Policy and the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising

This site displays ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or via aboutads.info if you're outside the EU.

Embedded Content

Some slang entries include embedded YouTube videos (via YouTube's privacy-enhanced "nocookie" mode) linking to the Down Under English channel. These embeds may still collect some data once you interact with them — for example, if you click play. Please refer to YouTube's Privacy Policy for details on how they handle your information.

Third-Party Links

This site links out to third-party sites, including YouTube and other resources. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites, so we'd encourage you to review their own privacy policies.

Children's Privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and isn't specifically directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we'll remove it.

Your Choices

You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings, opt out of personalised advertising using the links above, and use browser extensions or privacy tools to limit tracking. Doing so shouldn't affect your ability to read the dictionary itself.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "last updated" date.

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how your information is handled, email us at aussieenglishwithdue@gmail.com, or get in touch via the Down Under English YouTube channel.
