About this site

Waste News (wastenews.org) publishes news and guides about the waste and recycling industry. The site has no user accounts, comments or forms, and you can read every article without giving us any personal information.

Information you send us

If you email us, we receive your email address, your name if you include it, and whatever you write. We use it only to read and answer your message, and we don't sell it or add it to a mailing list. We keep messages only as long as we need them to deal with your request.

Analytics and cookies

This site uses PostHog analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. Visitors in Europe, and visitors whose browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, are counted in cookieless mode, with nothing stored on their device. The site sets no advertising cookies and shows no ads.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes standard request information such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse.

Links to other sites

Articles link to company, government and other websites. Those sites have their own privacy practices, which this policy doesn't cover.

Your choices

You can ask us to delete any email you have sent us. You can also block analytics with your browser's privacy settings or a content blocker without affecting how the site works.
