Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 14, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how The RGV News ("we," "us," "our") handles information when you visit thergvnews.com (the "Site"). We've tried to keep both our data practices and this policy simple.
Information we collect
The Site is primarily a static news aggregator, and you can browse it without creating an account or giving us any personal information. We may collect:
- Information you submit: If you use our contact form, we receive the name, email address, and message you provide. We use this only to read and respond to your message.
- Standard server and log data: Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record basic technical information such as your browser type, device, approximate location, and the pages you view, for security and to keep the Site running.
- Cookies and similar technologies: See the sections below.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. The Site itself uses few or no cookies for its core functionality. Third-party services we may use (such as analytics or advertising, described below) may set their own cookies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; doing so will not break the Site.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand, in aggregate, how the Site is used (for example, which sections are most popular). This data is used to improve the Site and is not used to personally identify you.
Advertising
The RGV News may display advertising to support the Site. When advertising is enabled, third-party vendors — potentially including Google — may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our Site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of many third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
How we use information
We use the limited information described above to operate, maintain, secure and improve the Site, to respond to your messages, and to comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information.
Links to other websites
The RGV News is an aggregator: nearly every headline links to an article on a third-party news website. Once you follow a link, you are subject to that website's own privacy policy and terms. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of sites we link to.
Children's privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, contact us using the details below and we'll respond as required by applicable law.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes may be highlighted on the Site.
