1. Who We Are

Dark History Files (thedarkhistoryfiles.blogspot.com) is a true crime and dark history blog. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit this blog, how it is used, and the choices you have. It covers this blog only — it does not cover any external website we link to.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only the information needed to run the blog:

  • Comments. If you leave a comment, the name and details you provide are published with your comment, as shown on the page.
  • Contact form. If you use our contact form, we receive your name, email address and message so that we can reply to you.
  • Email subscriptions. If you subscribe by email (Follow by Email), your email address is used only to send you new case files, and every email includes an unsubscribe link.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the websites you visit. This blog, hosted on Blogger, uses cookies to operate the site, remember your preferences and — through the services described below — to measure readership and serve advertising. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time: in Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge, open Privacy or Security settings, find "Cookies and site data", and choose to block them. Some features of this blog may not work properly with cookies disabled.

4. Google AdSense

We may display advertising through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and to other websites. Google's advertising cookies — including the DoubleClick (formerly DART) cookie — allow Google and its partners to show ads based on your visits to this and other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how readers use the archive. Google Analytics collects anonymous, aggregated usage data — such as which pages are visited, how long readers stay, device type and approximate location — and reports trends to us without identifying individual visitors.

6. Log Files

Like almost every website, this blog's hosting platform keeps standard log files. These record Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider, date and time stamps, and referring and exit pages. Log data is not linked to personally identifiable information; it is used to administer the site and analyse trends.

7. Third-Party Links

Our case files link out to sources and embed third-party content, including YouTube videos. Those sites and services have their own privacy policies, which we do not control. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

8. Children's Information

Dark History Files covers crime and dark history and is aimed at an adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information on this blog, contact us through the Contact page and we will remove it promptly.

9. Consent and Changes

By using this blog, you consent to this Privacy Policy. If we change the policy, we will post the updated version on this page with a new revision date. Your continued use of the blog after a change means you accept the updated policy.
