  1. WHO WE ARE

We are a small, independent blog. No big company, We take your privacy seriously.

  1. WHAT DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY
  • Comments: When you leave a comment, we store your name, email, IP address, and the comment itself. This helps us block spam.
  • Contact forms: If you email us, we keep your message and email address only to reply. We do not share or sell this.
  • Cookies: We use essential cookies to make the site work. We also use optional analytics cookies (like Google Analytics) to count visits and see which articles are popular. No tracking for personalized ads – we don’t run display ads.
  • Log files: Our hosting provider stores standard server logs (IP address, browser type, timestamps) for security and troubleshooting.
  1. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES WE USE
  • Google Analytics – collects anonymous traffic data. Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

  • Hosting provider – xcloud.host – stores backups that may include log data.
  1. YOUR RIGHTS
  • You can ask us to delete any personal data we hold about you (except data we must keep for legal or security reasons).
  • You can disable cookies in your browser settings. The site will still work, but we won’t see anonymous traffic stats.
