Privacy Policy

Last updated: 8 November 2026

This policy explains what data is collected when you use {BRAND} (the "site").

Data we collect

  • Settings: your chosen language and light/dark theme are stored in your browser's local storage. They never leave your device.
  • Offline copy: the site saves its own files in your browser (a service worker cache) so it works offline. This contains no personal data.
  • Contact form: if you send a message, the details you type (message, and optionally name and email) are processed and stored by our host, Netlify, Inc., so we can read and answer it. We do not sell or share them, and we delete messages when they are no longer needed.
  • Forum posts and questions: forum topics and replies are stored by our host, Netlify (Netlify Blobs), and appear on the site straight away, without manual approval. Only the topic title, the message and the name you chose are shown. An automatic filter rejects posts that contain links, phone numbers or email addresses, and posts that are too long or use offensive words. To stop spam, a one-way scrambled (hashed) form of your IP address is kept for up to one day to limit how often you can post; the IP address itself is not stored with your post. Questions and workshop suggestions are stored by Netlify Forms. We may delete any post.
  • Server logs: Netlify, our host, may log technical data such as IP address, browser type and pages requested, for security and operation. See Netlify's privacy policy.

Cookies in short

The site itself sets no cookies. Two outside services do: Google Analytics sets cookies to count visits, and our ad network, Adsterra, and its advertisers may set third-party cookies to show and measure ads (see below). You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Analytics (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (pages viewed, approximate location, device type). It uses cookies and collects no names or emails. See how Google uses data from sites that use its services; you can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.

Advertising and cookies (Adsterra)

To pay for hosting, some pages show up to two ads (usually a banner and a 300×250 box). We do not use pop-under ads. The ads are served by Adsterra (Ad Market Limited, Cyprus), a third-party ad network. We do not choose the individual ads.

  • Adsterra and the advertisers it works with may use cookies, web beacons and similar technology to show ads, limit how often you see them, count clicks and stop fraud. These are third-party cookies: they are set by those companies, not by {BRAND}.
  • For this they may receive technical data such as your IP address, browser and device type, the page you are on and approximate location. {BRAND} does not give them your name, email or forum and contact messages.
  • Read Adsterra's privacy policy and Adsterra's cookies policy. You can block third-party cookies in your browser settings, and opt out of some interest-based ads at www.aboutads.info or www.youronlinechoices.eu.
  • There are no ads on the legal pages, the contact page, the forum or the question pages.
  • We do not use Google AdSense at the moment.

Children

The site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data.
