Privacy policy
Last updated: October 30, 2026
This policy explains what information is collected when you visit Owensboro Local (the "site") and how it's used.
Information we collect
The site has no accounts, comment forms or sign-ups, so we don't ask you for personal information. Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit and the time of your visit. This is used to keep the site running and secure.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. The site itself does not set its own tracking cookies today. However, third parties described below may set cookies when you visit this site or click a link on it.
Advertising
The site may show ads from third-party vendors, including Google. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info. To learn more, see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Affiliate links
Some links on the site are affiliate links, including links to Amazon and other retailers. Owensboro Local is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer may set a cookie to record that you came from this site. What you buy and your payment details are handled by the retailer under its own privacy policy; we don't see or receive them.
Analytics
The site does not currently use an analytics service. If we add one, this page will be updated to say which one and how to opt out.
Links to other sites
The site links to official websites for businesses, events and stores. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, so please read their policies.
Children's privacy
The site is meant for a general audience and doesn't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings and still use the site. Blocking cookies may change which ads you see.
