Privacy Policy
Relax. We're a joke site, not your aunt. We barely collect anything, and we don't sell it.
The Plain-English Version
We collect the questions you submit, your quiz answers and score, and, if you email us, your message. We use a couple of standard services to run the site. We do not sell your data, we do not run ad trackers, and we do not want your life story. Want your stuff deleted? Email the rabbi.
§1 What This Covers
This Privacy Policy explains what information GoodJewBadJew.com (the "Site") collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to this policy. It works together with our Terms of Use.
§2 What We Collect
Less than you'd think. We're nosy about your Judaism, not your identity.
- Quiz submissions. If you submit a question, we store the text you enter in our database.
- Quiz results. When you take the quiz, your answers and resulting score may be recorded in our database so the Site can function and so we can see how questions perform. These records are not tied to your name.
- Messages. If you email the rabbi or use a contact form, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write.
- On-device settings. We store small preferences on your own device, such as whether audio is muted, using your browser's local storage. This stays on your device and is not sent to us.
We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, mailing address, or phone number.
§3 What We Do With It
Run the site, publish good questions, answer your email. That's the whole list.
We use this information to operate and improve the Site, to review and publish quiz questions, to respond to messages, and to understand which content people enjoy. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it to build advertising profiles about you.
§4 Services We Use
A few trusted helpers do the heavy lifting.
To run the Site we rely on third-party providers, including a database and backend provider that stores submissions and results, and a form-delivery provider that delivers messages you send. The Site also loads fonts and scripts from third-party networks, such as font and public code delivery services. When your browser loads these, those providers may receive your IP address and standard technical information as part of delivering their service. Each provider handles data under its own privacy policy, which we do not control.
§5 Cookies and Tracking
No ad trackers here. The rabbi finds them tacky.
The Site does not use advertising cookies and does not sell your activity to advertisers. We use your browser's local storage only to remember basic preferences on your device. Third-party services the Site loads may set their own cookies or collect technical data as described above.
§6 Children
The Site is intended for a general, adult audience, and its humor is not directed at children. It is not intended for anyone under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted information, email us and we will remove it.
§7 Keeping and Deleting Your Information
Want to vanish from our database? Just ask. No guilt trip. Well, a small one.
We keep submissions and results for as long as they are useful to the Site. You can ask us to delete information associated with you, or a submission you sent, by emailing rabbi@goodjewbadjew.com, and we will honor reasonable requests. You can also simply choose not to submit questions or contact us.
§8 Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the limited information we hold, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
§9 Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "last updated" date below will change when we do, and your continued use of the Site means you accept the current version.
