Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 10, 2026

Introduction

SalaryAtlas (https://salaryatlas.com) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

  • Email address — if you subscribe to our newsletter through the email capture form on our site. We use Buttondown to manage our mailing list.

Information Collected Automatically

  • Analytics data — we use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-focused analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not collect personal data. It tracks aggregate page views, referral sources, and device types without identifying individual visitors.
  • Cookies from third-party advertisers — Google AdSense may place cookies on your browser to serve personalized ads. See the "Advertising" section below for details and opt-out options.

How We Use Your Information

  • To send you newsletter updates if you have subscribed
  • To analyze aggregate site traffic and improve content
  • To display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense

Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our site. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies 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 based on your browsing activity.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party cookies for advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices.

Affiliate Links

Some pages on SalaryAtlas contain affiliate links. When you click on these links and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored nofollow" attributes. For more details, see our Affiliate Disclosure page.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:

  • Buttondown — to manage email subscriptions (only if you opt in)
  • Google AdSense — advertising cookies for ad personalization
  • Plausible Analytics — anonymous, aggregate analytics (no personal data)
  • Cloudflare — our hosting provider, which may process connection metadata for security and performance
