2. Information We Collect
A. Information You Provide Voluntarily
When you sign in with your Google account (via Google OAuth), we receive your basic public profile information, consisting of your name, email address, and profile picture.

You may browse all news articles, reviews, and editorial content without creating an account or signing in.
B. Automatically Collected Data (Log Files & Analytics)
Like most standard website servers, we utilize log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks. We use this data via Google Analytics 4 to analyze trends, administer the site, track user movement in the aggregate, and gather demographic information for aggregate use.
