About Us

ThePaperboy.com (“Paperboy”, “we”, “us”) is an Australian business (ABN 91 362 713 390) operating a global newspaper directory. We are subject to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

Data We Collect

We do not require user accounts or registration to use this site. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site (pages visited, session duration, country). In the UK and EU, analytics data is only collected with your consent via our cookie banner. Google Analytics may set cookies to distinguish unique visitors; you can opt out at any time using your browser settings or the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising — Google AdSense

This site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service operated by Google LLC. Google AdSense may:

• Use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to serve ads
• Collect information about your visits to this and other websites to show you relevant advertising
• Use the DoubleClick DART cookie to serve ads based on your browsing history across sites on the internet
• Share data with its advertising partners as described in Google’s privacy policy

Paperboy has no access to or control over the cookies and tracking technologies used by Google AdSense. Google’s use and collection of information via its advertising cookies is governed by Google’s own privacy policy.

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting adssettings.google.com, or by visiting aboutads.info/choices to opt out of interest-based advertising from participating third-party companies. You can also disable cookies in your browser settings — Google AdSense will then serve non-personalised ads only.

Third-Party Content

This site links to external newspaper websites and displays flag images served from flagcdn.com. We have no control over the privacy practices of external sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies when visiting them.

Children’s Privacy

This site is a general-audience news directory. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you have concerns about advertising shown to children, please use your browser’s parental controls or review Google’s family safety settings at families.google.com.
