Skip to content Understanding Privacy Protection
As a digital content creator with Never Ending Voyage, I’ve learned that privacy is more than just a buzzword—it’s a commitment to protecting your digital footprint. Our approach to personal information goes beyond typical US privacy law requirements. We meticulously handle every piece of data, whether it’s an email address or more sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII). The goal is to identify and protect your individual privacy with utmost care, securely transmitted and stored to prevent unauthorized contact or potential misuse.
Navigating the complex landscape of information security means we collect only essential details, always maintaining context and locate potential risks before they become problems. Our website is designed to use minimal personal data, ensuring that each single person’s information remains confidential. We handle your digital identity with the same care I would want for my own—transparent, careful, and always focused on maintaining the highest standards of digital privacy and protection.
Transparent Data Collection in Digital Spaces
Navigating Personal Information Boundaries
As a content creator, I understand the delicate balance of site interaction and user privacy. When visitors engage with our platform, we make email address collection optional, ensuring comments and mailing list sign-ups are entirely user-driven.

We use Google Analytics with AnonymizeIP function to track site usage without compromising personal identifiers, strategically removed from full IP address collection.
Our commitment extends beyond initial data collection. When you submit information, it’s transferred through secure terms aligned with our privacy policy. Mediavine helps us display ads while we retain your data indefinitely or until you request removal.

Digital Privacy and Advertising Ecosystem
Navigating Google’s Data Landscape
As digital creators, we work closely with third-party vendors like Google, utilizing various cookies and third-party identifiers to understand user interactions across our website.

The COPPA Rule establishes clear guidelines for how digital platforms must handle and protect young users’ information, reflecting a comprehensive consumer protection agency approach.
Technological transparency becomes our north star. By offering tools like the Google Analytics Opt Out Browser add on, digital platforms empower users to make informed choices about their online data sharing. These mechanisms aren’t just technical solutions—they’re bridges of trust between digital creators, platforms, and the individuals who use them.
