We collect two kinds of information: what you give us directly, and what is gathered automatically as you browse.
Information you provide. When you subscribe to our newsletter, email us, or respond to an advertising or editorial inquiry, you may share your name, email address, phone number, company, and the contents of your message.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically receive technical and usage data when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, the pages you view, and the dates and times of your visits. This data is collected through cookies and similar technologies described below.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the site work.
Long Island Wave runs on a sponsored editorial and advertising model. We work with third-party services that may collect information through your use of the site, including Google (Analytics and AdSense) and Pinterest. These companies process data under their own privacy policies. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to this and other sites. You can learn more and manage ad personalization through Google's advertising settings and opt out of personalized advertising from participating companies at optout.aboutads.info.
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the site (such as analytics, advertising, email, and hosting partners), with our parent company Wave Agency where needed to run the publication, and when required by law or to protect our rights, our readers, or the public.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to object to certain uses. To make a request, email us at hello@longislandwave.com and we will respond as required by applicable law.
The site is intended for a general, adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the information we collect. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Our articles and ads often link to brands, businesses, and resources across Long Island and beyond. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites, and we encourage you to review their policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
