Privacy

Last updated: November 2, 2026

This page explains privacy practices for Joshua Patrick Dudley’s Lost in Oz website at lostinozbook.com.

Browsing this website

You can read the site without creating an account. The current website does not provide its own contact form, collect payment details, run an analytics script, or use its own cookies or browser storage to remember your activity or preferences.

Your browser still sends requests to the website’s hosting provider to retrieve pages and images. Hosting logs may record technical information such as an IP address, the requested address, browser information, the time of a request and its result. Hosting configuration determines which logs are kept and for how long. For questions about those records, please use the contact link below.

Fonts and images from other services

Some resources are retrieved from other providers as you browse. These requests can disclose technical information, including your IP address and browser request details, to the provider delivering the resource.

• Google: the main website loads fonts from Google Fonts. Some images use Google Drive thumbnails when no local copy is configured. See Google’s privacy policy.
• Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons: some archive illustrations and book images are loaded from Wikimedia services. Requests to Wikipedia may also look up an image for the article named in a card. See the Wikimedia privacy policy.
• Publisher, retailer and auction images: some book covers and collectible images load from Karusel Books, Azbooka, Labirint, Magic Book, Invaluable, Replacements, Amazon, Walmart and eBay image services. These providers receive browser requests when their images load.

This privacy page uses system fonts and contains no advertising or analytics script.

Advertising

Current status: advertising is disabled. The website’s advertising configuration does not currently load Google’s ad-serving script or display ad units.

If Google AdSense advertising is enabled in the future, Google and other participating advertising providers may use cookies and related technologies to select and measure ads. Google’s advertising cookies can support personalized ads based on visits to this website and other websites. The disclosures and consent choices for the advertising services actually enabled will be updated when that changes.

You can read how Google uses advertising information and manage personalized Google ads in My Ad Center. Participating advertisers may also provide choices through YourAdChoices. These links describe advertising choices; they do not mean that ads are currently active on this site.

Contact and shopping links

Contact, retailer and other external links open websites operated separately from this site. If you send a message through the author’s contact website or buy a book from a retailer, the information you provide is handled through that service. Please review the privacy information of the website you use before submitting personal or payment information.

Your choices and questions

Your browser settings can control cookies and block requests to external services. Blocking some resources may prevent fonts or images from appearing. For questions about this website’s privacy practices or information you have provided, contact Joshua Patrick Dudley.

This page will be updated when the website’s data practices change.
