1. Information We Collect

We do not require registration or collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, or payment details. When you visit our site, the following data may be collected automatically:

• Usage data — pages visited, time spent, referring URL, browser type, operating system, and approximate geographic location (country/city level) derived from your IP address.
• Cookies — small text files stored in your browser to distinguish repeat visitors and improve site performance. See Section 4.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To understand how visitors use our site and improve content and navigation.
• To monitor site performance and diagnose technical issues.
• To count page views and unique visitors in aggregate, anonymised reports.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect data subject to their own privacy policies:

• Google Analytics 4 — collects anonymised usage statistics. Data is processed by Google LLC. You can opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not affect your ability to read content on this site.

5. Data Retention

Aggregated analytics data is retained for up to 14 months in Google Analytics, after which it is automatically deleted. We do not retain server logs longer than 30 days.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction or deletion of your data.
• Object to or restrict processing of your data.
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Since we collect only anonymised analytics data and do not maintain user accounts, most of these rights apply primarily to data held by our third-party processors (e.g. Google Analytics).
