At kenws.com, we deeply value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit our website. We adhere to stringent data protection principles and are compliant with regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Information We Collect
We collect various types of information to provide you with a seamless and personalized experience. The data we gather falls into the following categories:

Like many other websites, kenws.com utilizes log files. These files record visitor activity, including:
- IP addresses
- Browser type
- Internet Service Provider (ISP)
- Referring/exit pages

This information is used to analyze trends, administer the site, track user movement around the website, and gather demographic information. IP addresses and other such data are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.
Cookies
kenws.com uses cookies to store information about visitors’ preferences, to record user-specific information on which pages the site visitor accesses or visits, and to personalize or customize our web page content based upon visitors’ browser type or other information that the visitor sends via their browser. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.
You have the option to disable cookies through your individual browser options. More detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found at the browsers’ respective websites. Please be aware that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of kenws.com and your overall browsing experience.
Web Beacons
We also use web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) on kenws.com. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages. We use web beacons to help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. We also use web beacons in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on kenws.com. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our site’s visitors based upon their visit to kenws.com and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt-out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy at the following URL: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
