Privacy Policy
Last updated: 3 August 2026
This privacy policy explains how US Open Tennis Info collects, uses and protects information when you visit usopentennisinfo.com.
By using this site, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.
Who We Are
US Open Tennis Info is an independent publication covering the US Open tennis championships. The site is owned and operated by Joseph Yoder.
We have no affiliation with the USTA, the US Open, the ATP, the WTA or any broadcaster.
Contact details are at the bottom of this page.
Information We Collect
Collected automatically
When you visit the site, our servers and third-party services may record:
- Your IP address and approximate location
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages you visit and time spent on each
- The site you arrived from
- Date and time of your visit
This is standard web log data. We use it to understand how the site is used and to improve it.
Information you give us
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to reply to you.
We do not run a newsletter, we do not require registration, and we do not ask you to create an account.
What we do not collect
We do not collect payment details, government identification, health information, or any special category personal data.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. This site uses them for three purposes.
Essential cookies. Needed for the site to work, including remembering your cookie choices.
Analytics cookies. Help us understand which pages are read and how visitors move through the site.
Advertising cookies. Used by Google and its partners to serve advertising.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies may affect how parts of the site work. General guidance on cookie choices is available at cookiechoices.org.
Advertising
This site displays advertising through Google AdSense.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this site or to other sites. Google’s advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on those visits.
Google names the cookies it uses for advertising, including NID, IDE and id. On mobile devices, advertising identifiers such as Android’s Advertising ID serve a similar purpose.
How to opt out
- Manage ad personalisation in your Google account at myadcenter.google.com
- Opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices
- European visitors can also use youronlinechoices.eu
Third-party vendors may place their own cookies on your device. We do not control those cookies, and each vendor’s own privacy policy governs their use.
Google’s advertising practices are described at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
Consent for Visitors in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you will see a consent banner before advertising cookies are set.
We use a Google-certified consent management platform that integrates with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework, as Google requires for publishers serving ads in those regions.
Your choices are recorded and passed to Google and its partners. You can change them at any time through the cookie settings link on this site.
If you decline consent, you will still be able to read the site. You may see non-personalised advertising instead.
Analytics
We use analytics software to measure traffic and understand how the site is used. It collects information such as pages viewed, time on site and general location.
This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
If we use Google Analytics, you can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available from Google.
Affiliate Links
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and then sign up or make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
We take part in affiliate programmes covering VPN services, streaming platforms and ticket marketplaces.
When you click an affiliate link, the destination site may set its own cookies to record the referral. That process is controlled by them, not by us.
Affiliate relationships never influence what we recommend or how we report facts. Where affiliate links appear, we disclose them on the page. Full detail is in our affiliate disclosure.
Third-Party Links
This site links to external websites including usopen.org, broadcasters, streaming services and ticket platforms.
We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices or security of any external site. Read their privacy policies before giving them your information.
Your Rights
European Economic Area and United Kingdom
Under the GDPR and UK GDPR you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict processing
- Receive a copy of your data in a portable format
- Withdraw consent at any time
- Complain to your data protection authority
Our legal basis is legitimate interest for site operation and analytics, and consent for advertising and non-essential cookies.
California
Under the CCPA and CPRA you have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request its deletion, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and not to be treated differently for exercising these rights.
We do not sell personal information for money. Advertising cookies may qualify as “sharing” under California law, and the consent controls on this site let you opt out.
How to exercise your rights
Email us using the address at the bottom of this page. We respond within 30 days.
Data Retention
Email correspondence is kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry. Analytics data is retained according to the standard retention settings of the analytics provider.
Children’s Privacy
This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information transmitted through this site, including HTTPS encryption. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
International Data Transfers
This site is hosted and operated internationally. Third-party services we use, including Google, may process data in countries outside your own, including the United States. Those services maintain their own safeguards for international transfers.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted, and the date at the top of this page will be updated. Significant changes will be noted clearly here.
