Information you provide

If you email Red Reactions, we receive the information included in your message, such as your email address and the details you choose to provide. We use it to respond to and manage the correspondence.

Newsletter subscriptions

If you actively subscribe to Red Reactions Weekly, we send your email address to Resend to maintain the newsletter contact and subscription segment. We do not request a name, phone number, date of birth, interests or a tracking profile for newsletter signup. Resend processes the contact and unsubscribe status needed to send the newsletter.

You can unsubscribe using the link included in a newsletter. To request deletion or help with a subscription, email [email protected].

Technical information

When you visit the site, technical information may be processed automatically, including your IP address, browser and device information, request and security logs, and cookie or local-storage identifiers where applicable.

Reader ratings

On selected reviews, you can give the reviewed movie, series, episode or game an integer score from 1 to 10. Red Reactions stores the rating target, your score, timestamps and a non-reversible keyed hash of a random browser identifier. The application does not store your raw identifier, email address, name, full user agent or precise location with a rating.

The random identifier is held for up to one year in a Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite cookie named __Host-rr_rating_id. It is used only to keep one active rating per browser and reviewed item and to let that browser change its rating. Ratings are anonymous on a best-effort basis, not verified-user votes: clearing browser data, changing browser or using another device can create another identity.

Rating records may be retained while the reviewed item remains available and the rating feature is operated. The browser identifier expires after one year unless refreshed by a later rating. Red Reactions may remove ratings or disable a target when needed for abuse response, data integrity or legal obligations.

Cloudflare

Cloudflare Pages provides hosting, network delivery and security infrastructure for this website. Cloudflare may process technical request data needed to deliver and protect the site.

Google AdSense and advertising

Red Reactions uses Google AdSense. Google and advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies for advertising, measurement, fraud prevention and, where permitted, personalization. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on visits to this and/or other websites. Google provides advertising and privacy controls through its own services and account settings.

Google Analytics

Red Reactions uses Google Analytics to understand site usage and performance. Information may include page views, device and browser information, approximate geographic information and interaction data. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies depending on consent. Where consent is required, Analytics storage is governed by the site’s Google consent-management system. Google may process data according to its own privacy policies.

Consent choices

Visitors in regions where consent is required are shown Google’s consent-management message. They can consent, refuse consent or manage their choices through that interface.

YouTube embeds

Some articles include embedded YouTube videos. The site uses youtube-nocookie.com privacy-enhanced embeds. External content may still communicate with YouTube or Google when it is loaded or interacted with.

Why information is used

Information may be used to operate and secure the website, maintain reader-rating integrity, respond to correspondence, provide advertising, measure and maintain advertising where applicable, and comply with legal obligations.

Legal grounds

Depending on applicable law and the context, processing may be based on consent where required, legitimate interests where applicable, responding to user requests, or legal obligations. No single legal basis necessarily applies in every jurisdiction or situation.

Sharing and international processing

Relevant service providers, including Google, Cloudflare and Resend, may process information as described above. These providers may process data in multiple countries, subject to safeguards and policies applicable to their services.

Retention

Information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose, subject to third-party provider policies and legal obligations.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection, withdraw consent where applicable, or complain to the appropriate data protection authority. Contact us to make a request.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website or applicable practices. The latest version will be posted on this page.
