This policy applies to Ice Cream Magazine at https://icecreamfortcollins.com, including editorial pages, shop guides, maps, newsletter signup forms, advertiser inquiry forms, and the restricted staff console.

We do not publish a legal or billing entity name here until the owner confirms it. Owner task: confirm the legal/billing entity before using insertion orders, invoices, Chamber paperwork, or final legal notices.

Information We Collect

We collect information readers or businesses choose to submit, such as email addresses, newsletter preferences, advertiser inquiry details, feedback, suggested corrections, and message content.

The site may also collect basic technical data such as page views, referring pages, device/browser information, approximate location signals, form submission events, and map or route interactions. Staff console users may have account, role, task, advertiser, route, and handbook access records stored for operations and security.

How We Use Information

We use information to operate the publication, send requested newsletter or advertiser follow-up, manage advertiser conversations, improve reader experience, protect the staff console, measure site performance, and maintain editorial and operational records.

Editorial rankings, reviews, hot-list spots, and Best-Of coverage are not sold. Advertising may be sold separately and should be labeled as advertising or sponsorship.

Sharing

We may use service providers for hosting, analytics, email, authentication, forms, databases, and operational tooling. We do not sell personal information as a standalone data product. We may disclose information when needed to comply with law, enforce site terms, protect the publication, or complete a reader-requested or advertiser-requested workflow.
