Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2, 2026

The Northport Spotlight ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website and the advertising campaign pages linked from it. This policy explains how we handle information from prospective and current advertisers and other visitors.

Information we collect

We may collect information you submit when you ask about a campaign, reserve or purchase an advertising spot, provide artwork, request support, or otherwise contact us. This may include your name, business name, email address, phone number, advertising content, transaction details, and the messages you send us.

We and the service providers that support this site may also receive basic technical information such as your IP address, browser or device type, referring page, pages viewed, and approximate location. We use this information to operate, secure, and understand use of the site.

How we use information

We use information to respond to inquiries; prepare, sell, and fulfill advertising placements; review and produce artwork; process payments, refunds, and disputes; communicate about campaigns and deadlines; keep business and tax records; prevent fraud or misuse; improve our services; and comply with law.

Payments

Payments are processed by Stripe. Stripe receives payment and transaction information under its own privacy policy. We do not receive your full payment card number through this website, although we receive transaction records and limited payment details needed to administer an order.

When we share information

We may share information with service providers that help us host the site, communicate with you, process payments, prevent fraud, store files, analyze site use, print materials, and distribute mail. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, to investigate misuse, or as part of a sale or transfer of our business. We do not sell personal information for money.

Cookies and similar technologies

This site and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for site operation, security, checkout, preferences, and measurement. Your browser may let you block or delete cookies, but some features may then stop working.

Optional advertising measurement

If you accept optional marketing cookies, this site loads Meta Pixel to measure page views and confirmed advertising inquiries. Meta may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser or device information, the public page address, and limited campaign attribution. Meta may use cookies and associate these events with your Meta account under its own privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/.

The Pixel does not load before you accept. You may reject optional tracking or withdraw consent using Marketing preferences on this site. Withdrawing consent stops future Pixel events from this site; it does not undo information already sent to Meta. We do not send your inquiry text, name, email address, or phone number through this integration.

Retention and security

We keep information for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described above, including fulfillment, recordkeeping, dispute resolution, security, and legal compliance. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, but no online service can promise absolute security.

Your choices and rights

You may ask to access, correct, or delete information you provided, or object to certain uses, by contacting us. Applicable law may provide additional rights and exceptions. We may need to verify your request and may retain information when required or permitted by law.

Children

This site is intended for businesses and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our practices or legal obligations change. The date above shows when this version was last updated.
