Privacy Policy

Updated: 2 October 2026

This policy explains what information is collected when you use The Israeli Journal website (iljournal.com), how it is used and what choices are available to you.

Site operator

The site is operated by Easy Internet. Privacy questions and requests can be sent through our Contact page.

Information collected

Technical data

As on any website, browsing sends technical data to the servers operating the site, such as your IP address, browser and device model, the address you requested and the time. These data are used to display pages, maintain site security and identify technical problems.

Usage analytics

If you consent through the cookie notice or the Privacy Settings page, the site will activate Google Analytics, Google's usage analytics service. The service collects data such as pages viewed, visit duration, device type and approximate geographical location, and stores cookies in the browser whose names begin with _ga. We use aggregated data to understand which content interests readers. Without your consent, the tool is not loaded. The service is also subject to Google's privacy policy.

WhatsApp inquiries

Inquiries are sent to us through WhatsApp, a Meta service. We receive the message content and the details displayed in the sender's account, such as their name and phone number, and use them only to handle and respond to the inquiry.

Cookies and browser storage

The site stores only two items in the browser's local storage (localStorage): the choices you make in the accessibility menu and your decision about usage analytics. This information stays on your device and is not sent to us. Google Analytics cookies are stored only after you consent.

You can change your choice at any time on the Privacy Settings page. Withdrawing consent deletes the analytics cookies the site can access.

Sharing information

We do not sell personal information or pass it to third parties for advertising purposes. Information is processed only by the service providers the site uses for its operation, as detailed on this page. Some providers operate outside Israel, so information may also be processed in other countries.

Retention period

Inquiries are retained for as long as needed for handling and follow-up, then deleted. Analytics data are retained by Google according to the retention period configured for the site. Browser settings remain until you delete them.

Your rights

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or ask for it to be deleted, in accordance with the law. Send requests through our Contact page. We may ask to verify the requester's identity before handling the request.

Security

The site consists of static pages, has no user accounts and has no forms that store information on a server. Communications are encrypted (HTTPS), and the site restricts the loading of code from external sources. However, no method guarantees complete protection.

Policy updates

We will update this page when the way information is handled changes, and amend the update date accordingly.
