Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 May 2026

Summary

Fuel Prices Australia is a static website. We do not require you to log in, create an account, or submit any personal information to use the site. The only data collected about your visit is what your browser sends automatically and what is collected by Google Analytics, Google AdSense, and Cloudflare on our behalf.

Who We Are

This site is operated by RefDat, owned and run by Mike Townsend in Australia. For privacy queries, email [email protected] with "Privacy" in the subject line.

What We Collect

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (measurement ID G-CET7RHL9CT) to understand how visitors find and use the site. Google may collect:

• Pages you visit and how long you spend on each
• General geographic location (city-level)
• Device type, browser, and operating system
• Referrer URL (which site linked you here)

See Google's Privacy Policy for details. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense (publisher ID ca-pub-9367164390411875) to display advertising. Google may collect:

• Cookies for ad targeting and frequency capping
• Your interests based on browsing behaviour
• Cookie IDs for advertising analytics

You can manage your ad preferences at Google's Data and Privacy dashboard.

Cloudflare

The site is served through Cloudflare for caching, CDN delivery, and DDoS protection. Cloudflare collects limited analytics including page views, request volumes, and country-level geography. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy for details.

How We Use This Data

• Analytics: to understand which pages are useful and which need work
• Advertising: AdSense uses cookies to show ads that are more relevant to you
• Site reliability: Cloudflare uses request data to protect the site from abuse
• We do not sell your data, share it with third parties beyond the services above, or build profiles of individual visitors

Cookies

The site uses cookies for:

• Google Analytics tracking (typically with a 24-month expiry)
• Google AdSense ad personalisation and frequency capping (typically 13 months)
• Cloudflare security and performance features (varies)

You can block cookies in your browser settings. The site will still work, but ads may be less relevant and we will have less accurate analytics.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data about them. If you believe a child has provided data to us through a contact email, let us know and we will delete it.

Your Rights

Under Australian Privacy Principles and similar frameworks elsewhere:

• Access: you can ask what we hold (the answer is "nothing personal" for static page visits)
• Correction: not applicable since we do not store personal data ourselves
• Deletion: for third-party services (Google, Cloudflare), contact them directly
• Complaints: contact us first at [email protected]. If unresolved, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) is the relevant body.

Changes to This Policy

If we change how data is handled we will update this page and revise the "Last updated" date at the top. Substantive changes will be noted on the homepage for a reasonable period.
