Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 15, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how this website (“the Site,” “we,” “us,” or “I”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit DaddyGavinNewsom.com or interact with its features.

This site is not affiliated with Gavin Newsom, his office, any campaign, the State of California, or any other public official or entity.

By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Policy.

1. Information I Collect

1.1. Information You Provide Directly

If the Site includes a contact form, feedback form, or similar input field, you may choose to provide:

  • Name or handle (real or fake, I do not judge)
  • Email address
  • Message content and any information you choose to include

You are responsible for not putting sensitive information (e.g., Social Security numbers, medical info, passwords) into any forms on this Site. Please don’t.

1.2. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, certain information may be collected automatically, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Referring/exit pages
  • Approximate location (city/region level, not your exact address)
  • Time and date of visit, and pages viewed

This is standard web server and analytics behavior and is used for understanding traffic patterns and improving the Site.

2. Analytics and Cookies

2.1. Google Analytics

This Site uses Google Analytics to understand how many people visit, which pages they look at, and how they got here.

Google Analytics may collect information such as:

  • IP address (which may be truncated/anonymized depending on configuration)
  • Browser and device information
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referring websites or campaigns

Google may set cookies in your browser. You can learn more about how Google uses data here:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

You can opt out of Google Analytics using the browser add-on:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

2.2. Cloudflare Analytics

This Site may also use Cloudflare Web Analytics and/or other Cloudflare services. Cloudflare may collect:

  • IP address (for security and performance)
  • Request URLs and headers
  • Country/region of visitors
  • Performance and security-related metrics

Cloudflare’s privacy practices are described here:
https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

Cloudflare data is used primarily for security (DDoS protection, firewalling) and site performance, plus high-level traffic analytics.

2.3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site may use:

  • Essential cookies – needed for basic site functionality.
  • Analytics cookies – used by Google Analytics and/or Cloudflare.

You can control cookies via your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how the Site works, but it should mostly still function, because this is not a banking app.

3. How I Use Your Information

Information collected may be used to:

  • Maintain and improve the Site’s performance and design
  • Understand aggregate usage trends (which pages people actually read)
  • Respond to messages you send via forms, if applicable

I do not sell your personal information.

4. Sending To AOC’s inbox

This is a joke.

5. Data Sharing

I may share data in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service providers – with vendors like hosting providers, analytics providers, or email/form services that help run the Site. They get only the information they need to perform their functions.
  • Legal or safety reasons – if required by law, court order, or a legitimate legal request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Site owner or others.
  • Aggregate or anonymized statistics – e.g., “X visitors this month” or “Y% mobile traffic,” with no personally identifiable information attached.

I do not sell your data to data brokers, political campaigns, or marketing firms. That would be weird.

6. Data Retention

I’ll keep things until Gavin is president.

This Site may link to external websites, news articles, official documents, and memes hosted elsewhere. I have no control over the content or privacy practices of those sites.

When you follow a link, their policies apply, not mine. Please review their privacy policies if you’re concerned.

8. Children’s Privacy

This Site is not directed at children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal data here, please contact me so I can delete it.

9. Security

Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect information (e.g., HTTPS, reputable hosting, basic access controls). That said:

  • No system is perfectly secure
  • No security claims are absolute

Please do not treat this Site as a secure messaging platform for sensitive information. It is a fan site, not a classified network.

10. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

  • Access the personal information I hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion
  • Object to or limit certain processing
  • Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

I am one (1) person with limited infrastructure, but if you contact me with a reasonable request regarding your data, I will do my best to honor it within technical and legal limits.

11. Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect:

  • Changes to the Site
  • New tools or services (e.g., different analytics providers)
  • Changes in law or best practices

When changes are made, the “Last updated” date at the top will be revised. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.

12. Contact

If you have questions, concerns, or extremely polite corrections about this Privacy Policy, you can contact me at:

Email: contact [at] daddygavinewsom [dot] com
(Example format – replace with whatever address you actually use.)

Please note:

  • I am not your lawyer.
  • Nothing on this Site, including this Privacy Policy, constitutes legal advice.
  • If you need actual legal guidance, you should consult a licensed attorney, not my stupid ass.

By using this Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Privacy Policy, and that you are emotionally prepared for the fact that someone on the internet unironically wrote the phrase “Daddy Gavin” in a legal-sounding document.
