Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 29, 2026

1. Who We Are

StrikeRadar (usstrikeradar.com) is a real-time geopolitical risk monitor. The site is operated independently. For questions, contact us via LinkedIn.

2. What Data We Collect

StrikeRadar does not have user accounts and does not store personal data on its own servers. When you grant consent, the following third-party services may collect data through your browser:

Google Analytics — collects anonymized usage data including pages visited, session duration, scroll depth, referring site, device type, browser, screen resolution, approximate geographic location, and IP address (anonymized by Google).
Google AdSense — may set advertising cookies to serve relevant ads and measure ad performance. This can include data about your browsing behavior across sites that use AdSense.

3. Why We Collect This Data

Analytics: To understand how visitors use the site, which features are popular, and how to improve the experience.
Advertising: To support the ongoing operation of this free service through ad revenue.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We rely on your explicit consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)) before activating any analytics or advertising scripts. No tracking cookies are set until you click "Accept" on the consent banner. This approach also satisfies the requirements of the Israeli Privacy Protection Law (Amendment 13, 2025), which mandates explicit, documented consent for processing personal data — including online identifiers such as IP addresses.
