We may show Google AdSense ads and directly sold ads, always labeled as ads; direct advertisers only receive totals such as impressions and clicks. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other sites; you can turn off personalized ads in Google Ad Settings. To match the weather to your area, we may ask your browser for your location; it is used only on your device to pick the nearest city, is never sent or stored anywhere, and only the chosen city name is kept on your device.

HOLT NEWS Publisher

HOLT NEWS uses an internal tool, HOLT NEWS Publisher, to upload its own short videos to its own YouTube and TikTok accounts. The tool only handles OAuth tokens for those accounts and basic channel or creator info (channel name, username, allowed privacy options); tokens are stored only on the operator's computer. It does not collect data from viewers or any other users, and nothing is sold, shared with third parties, or used for advertising or analytics. YouTube features are subject to the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. Access can be revoked at any time in Google Account security settings (third-party access) or TikTok settings (Security → Manage app permissions); deletion requests sent to the address below are handled within 7 days.
