What We Collect and Why
When you visit loadededit.com, we automatically collect certain information: your IP address, browser type, pages you view, and how long you stay. We use this to understand how people use the site and to make it better.
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your email address. We use it to send you exactly what you signed up for, and nothing else.
We do not sell your data. We do not trade it. We do not pass it to third parties for their own marketing.
Cookies and Third-Party Tracking
Loaded Edit uses cookies, small files stored in your browser, to make the site work and to understand how readers use it.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to track traffic and reader behaviour. Google collects anonymised data via its own cookies. You can opt out at any time using Google’s opt-out browser add-on.
Advertising
We may work with advertising networks that use cookies and tracking pixels to serve relevant ads. These networks may collect data across multiple websites to build audience profiles. You can manage ad preferences via Your Online Choices or your browser settings.
Essential Cookies
Some cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function. These cannot be disabled and do not track you for marketing purposes.
You can manage or block non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling them may affect some site features.
Affiliate Links
Some links on Loaded Edit are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission, at absolutely no extra cost to you. Affiliate income helps keep the site independent and free to read.
We only link to things we genuinely think are worth your attention. Our editorial voice is not for sale. Affiliate arrangements never influence what we write or recommend.

- Google Analytics: traffic analysis and audience insights
- Google AdSense: advertising delivery
- Mailchimp: newsletter management and delivery
- WordPress hosting infrastructure: site operation and security
Each service is governed by its own privacy policy. We encourage you to read them.
