Privacy Policy
This policy explains what limited information MyOldNumber.com collects, how third-party advertising works on this site, and the choices you have.
Last updated: July 2026
MyOldNumber.com ("we," "us," or "this site") is an independent information website. We aim to collect as little data as possible. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not directly collect personal information such as your name, address, or phone number unless you choose to send it to us by email.
Information we collect directly
If you email us at hello@myoldnumber.com, we receive whatever information you include in that message (such as your email address and its contents). We use it only to respond to you and do not sell it or use it for marketing.
Standard server logs and analytics
Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure may automatically record standard technical information when you visit — for example your IP address, browser type, referring page, and the time of your request. This information is used for security, troubleshooting, and understanding overall traffic in aggregate. If we use a web analytics service, it is used to measure general usage patterns, not to identify you personally.
Advertising and cookies
This site displays advertising to help cover its costs. We use Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service provided by Google.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Google and its partners may use technologies such as cookies and similar identifiers (for example, through the DoubleClick and AdSense systems) to collect information about your device and browsing for the purpose of measuring and serving ads.
Your choices and how to opt out
You have control over personalized advertising:
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by Google by visiting Google Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com).
- You can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info (the Digital Advertising Alliance) or youronlinechoices.eu if you are in Europe.
- Most web browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking cookies may affect how some parts of this and other sites function.
Even after opting out of personalized ads, you may still see advertising, but it will not be tailored based on your browsing history in the same way.
Third-party links
Our pages sometimes link to outside resources, such as carrier websites or government agencies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites. We encourage you to review their own privacy policies.
Children's privacy
This site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in the services we use. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date above.
