Last updated: 30 September 2026

Pet lovers visit pethousely.com for stories about the animals who share our homes. This page explains how we treat the information connected with those visits.

What we know about visitors

We don’t ask you to register and we don’t sell personal data. Our hosting and partner services automatically receive the usual technical details that any website sees: IP address, browser type, device, operating system, pages viewed, visit length and the site that referred you. When you email us, we also receive your email address and your message.

Why we use it

To keep the site online and secure, to learn which stories readers enjoy most and to pay for the site through advertising.

Cookies on this site

Cookies and similar technologies are used for three things: making the site work properly, measuring audience and showing ads. You can block or clear cookies in your browser’s settings.

Google AdSense

Google AdSense serves the ads you see here. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Its advertising cookies enable Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings, and you can opt out of personalized ads from many other vendors at www.aboutads.info.

Other third-party ad networks

Ads may also come from third-party advertising networks besides Google. These companies may use their own cookies, scripts or web beacons to deliver ads and check how well they work. We do not control them; their privacy policies explain what they collect.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to see overall traffic trends, for example how many people read a story. The reports are aggregated and anonymous. Google’s opt-out browser add-on lets you exclude your visits.

Your GDPR rights

If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, you can request access to your personal data, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to processing and data portability. You can withdraw consent to advertising cookies at any time and complain to a data protection authority.

Your CCPA rights

If you live in California, you can ask which personal information has been collected about you, request its deletion and opt out of any sale of your data. We do not sell personal information, and exercising your rights will not affect your use of the site.

Children

Although our stories are family-friendly, the site is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
