Analytics & privacy

We use optional Google Analytics measurement to understand how visitors find Blackhound Books, which pages they read, and which book and resource links they use.

Your choice

Google Analytics loads only after you accept analytics. You can decline and continue using the website and its downloads. We remember your choice in this browser for up to six months. You can change it at any time using Analytics settings in the footer.

What is measured

When enabled, Google Analytics can collect page visits, referring websites or campaigns, device and browser information, approximate location, engagement, outbound-link clicks, and PDF or ZIP link clicks. Analytics cookies help distinguish visits. We configure these cookies to expire after six months; repeat visits may renew them.

An Amazon click is not a confirmed purchase. A PDF-link click is not confirmation that the file finished downloading. We do not send the contents of your worksheets to Analytics.

Google’s role

Google processes analytics information to provide these reports. Advertising storage, advertising user data, and ad personalization are disabled in our website’s tag configuration. Read how Google uses information from sites that use its services and Google’s privacy policy.

Changing your mind

Declining after previously accepting stops our Analytics collection and clears accessible Google Analytics cookies for this site. It does not erase information already collected. Your browser stores your preference locally; clearing browser storage may cause the choice to appear again.

These controls apply to our optional Google Analytics measurement. Loading the website still requires normal requests to our hosting service. Amazon and other external websites have their own privacy practices.
