Privacy policy
Version of Nov 13, 2026
Here is, in plain terms, what data El Niño Today uses when you visit. The site is run from Brazil and follows Brazil's General Data Protection Law (Law 13,709/2018).
What we collect
- Traffic statistics: we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts visits and page views in aggregate, without cookies and without identifying you.
- "Online now" counter: each open tab creates a random code stored only in your browser while the tab is open (no cookie). It is used only to count how many people are on the site, and the records are deleted within minutes.
- Language preference: if you pick a language at the top of the page, we store that choice in a cookie so we do not ask again. It contains no personal data.
- Ads: we count how many times each ad space is shown and clicked. Daily totals only, with no record of who saw it.
- Technical data: our host (Cloudflare) processes your IP address and browser data to deliver pages and protect the site. Your country is used only to suggest a language.
- Contact: if you write to us through the form, we use your name and email only to reply.
We do not sell or share personal data for marketing.
Third-party ads
If the site starts showing ads from networks such as Google AdSense, those companies may use cookies. We will update this policy beforehand, with consent options.
External links
The site links to third-party pages (NOAA, weather services, news outlets), each with its own privacy policy.
