Privacy Policy
This privacy policy explains, in plain English, what happens when you use DairyQueenMenuz.us, an independent Dairy Queen menu guide. The short version: we do not sell data, we do not run user accounts, and anything you type into our calculators never leaves your browser. Last updated October 21, 2026.
What Data We Collect — and What We Don’t
This privacy policy covers a simple website, and the data picture is simple too. When you browse our menu guides, our analytics tools record basic, aggregated information: which pages were viewed, roughly how long people stayed, the type of device and browser used, a broad geographic region, and how visitors arrived, such as from a search engine. This information is collected in aggregate. It tells us which guides help readers most; it is not tied to your name, and we do not use it to identify individual visitors.
There are no user accounts on this site, no comments section, and no newsletter signup, so we never ask for a password or a profile. If you write to us through the contact page, we receive the name, email address, and message you choose to send — nothing more. We use that information only to read and reply to your message, for example if you are reporting a wrong price or a broken link.
Our tools work differently from most websites. When you use the nutrition calculator or any other interactive feature on this site, the numbers you enter are processed locally, inside your own browser, by code running on the page. Your entries are never transmitted to our servers, never stored in a database, and never logged. Close the tab and they are gone. Our web host also keeps standard server security logs, such as IP addresses and error records, for a short period so the site stays safe and online. What we never collect: payment details, precise location, health information, or data about children.
The Data Inventory: What, Why, and How Long
The table below lists every category of information involved in running this site. If a type of data is not on this list, we do not collect it.
| Data | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics page-view data (pages visited, device type, broad region, referring site) | Understand which guides readers use, fix unpopular or broken pages, and plan updates | Aggregated reports kept up to 26 months; not linked to your identity |
| Contact message (name, email address, message text) | Read and reply to questions, price corrections, and error reports | Up to 12 months, then deleted |
| Calculator entries (menu items, sizes, quantities) | None on our side — the calculation happens entirely in your browser | Never sent to us, never stored, never logged |
| Server security logs (IP address, timestamps, error records) | Keep the site secure, prevent abuse, and diagnose outages | Short term, typically 30 days |
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing. Ever.
Cookies on This Site
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. We keep our cookie use to a minimum. Essential cookies, set by our hosting and security providers, help the site load quickly and protect it from attacks; the site cannot run properly without them. Analytics cookies, when active, simply count visits and show us which pages are popular, so we know which menus to update first. They do not follow you around the internet, and we do not use advertising cookies or cross-site trackers that build a profile of you for advertisers.
You stay in control. Every modern browser lets you view, block, or delete cookies in its settings, and you can use private or incognito mode for a session that saves nothing. Blocking cookies will not break our guides or our calculators — every page on this site works with cookies off. If we ever introduce advertising in the future, we will update this policy first and describe exactly what changes before anything new is switched on.
Third Parties We Work With
Like almost every website, we rely on a small number of service providers, in three categories. Hosting and security providers run the servers and firewalls that keep the site online; they see standard technical logs. An analytics provider processes the aggregated page-view statistics described above, so we can see totals and trends rather than individual behavior. Content and media services may deliver images or fonts efficiently. Each provider receives only the technical data it needs to do its job, and none of them receives your calculator entries, because those never leave your device.
One important boundary: this site is independent. When you click through to Dairy Queen’s official website or app — for example to check your local store’s exact prices — you are on dairyqueen.com, and Dairy Queen’s own privacy policy applies there, not ours. The same applies to any other external site we link to for reference. We encourage you to read the policy of any site where you place an order or create an account.
Your Privacy Rights
Whatever privacy law applies where you live — including California’s CCPA/CPRA and Europe’s GDPR — we offer the same rights to every visitor, with no proof of residency required. You may ask us what personal information we hold about you (for most visitors, the honest answer is none beyond a contact email you sent us). You may ask us to correct it, and you may ask us to delete it, and we will do so and confirm when it is done. You may also object to analytics processing; the simplest way is to block cookies in your browser, which stops analytics collection entirely.
To make a request, just contact us with the email address you used to write to us, and tell us what you would like. We respond to privacy requests within 30 days, usually much faster, and we never charge a fee for reasonable requests. This site is written for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13; we do not knowingly collect information from children, and if you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy when our practices change, when we add or remove a tool, or when privacy laws require it. The current version will always live on this page, and the “last updated” date at the top will change whenever we revise it. If a change is significant — for example, if we ever added advertising or a new category of data collection — we will flag it clearly at the top of this page for at least 30 days, rather than quietly editing the text. Older versions are available on request. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised policy, and our terms and conditions explain the general rules for using the site.
Privacy Policy FAQs
What data do you collect?
Very little. We collect aggregated analytics about page views, such as which guides are read and what device types visit, plus the name, email, and message you send if you contact us. There are no accounts, no payments, and no tracking profiles. Anything you type into our calculators is processed in your browser and is never sent to us at all.
Do you sell my data?
No. We have never sold personal information and we never will. We do not share data with advertisers or data brokers, and we do not trade it for anything of value. The limited information involved in running this site — analytics totals and contact messages — stays with us and the technical providers who host and measure the site on our behalf.
What cookies do you use?
Only two kinds: essential cookies from our hosting and security providers, which keep the site fast and safe, and analytics cookies, which count visits so we know which pages to improve. We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site trackers. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and every guide and calculator still works with cookies turned off.
How do I delete my data?
Send us a message through the contact page, using the same email address you wrote to us from, and ask us to delete your information. We will remove your contact messages and any related records, then confirm by email when it is done. We handle deletion requests within 30 days, and there is no fee. Analytics data is aggregated and cannot identify you, so there is nothing individual to delete there.
Does the nutrition calculator send my data anywhere?
No. The calculator runs entirely inside your browser using code on the page itself. The items, sizes, and quantities you enter are never transmitted to our servers, never stored, and never logged by us or by our analytics. When you close the tab, your entries disappear with it. It works the same way for every interactive tool on this site.
