Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Know This Meme (knowthismeme.com) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

Information you provide. You can browse the site without an account. If you choose to create an account, we collect your email address (and an optional display name). If you contact us by email, we receive the information you send.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically receive certain information when you visit: your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and the pages you view. This data is used in aggregate to keep the site running securely and to understand what content is useful.

Cookies and Local Storage

We use cookies and similar technologies (including browser local storage) for:

  • Essential purposes — keeping you signed in, remembering your theme preference, and security (abuse prevention).
  • Analytics — see below.
  • Advertising — see below (only if ads are displayed on the site).

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent sign-in or other account features from working.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure how visitors find and use the site (pages viewed, traffic sources, general device info). Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this information. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On or by adjusting your Google Ads settings.

Advertising and Google AdSense

The site may display advertising served by Google AdSense. When ads are shown:

  • Google and its partners may use cookies (including the DART cookie) and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and opt out of third-party vendor cookies via About Ads Choices or the NAI opt-out page.
  • Advertisers do not receive your name, email address, or other directly identifying information from us.

For more on how Google uses data when its partners' sites or apps use Google services, see How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the site and its content
  • Keep the site secure and prevent abuse
  • Understand aggregate usage (analytics)
  • Respond to messages you send us
  • Display advertising (where applicable)

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers that process it on our behalf — for example, our hosting provider (Cloudflare), analytics (Google), and advertising partners (Google AdSense) — or where required by law.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict our use of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable period.

Children's Privacy

The site is a general-audience website and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
