At Minimalist News ("Minimalist News"), the privacy of our visitors is of extreme importance to us. This privacy policy document outlines the types of personal information received and collected by Minimalist News and how it is used.

Information We Collect

Log Files

Like many other websites, Minimalist News makes use of log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement around the site, and gather demographic information.
