Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

a. Personal information

We do not require an account to browse this website, and we do not currently offer a newsletter subscription. The contact form opens your device's email application; the website does not submit or store its contents in a website database. If you send the message, your email provider and the recipient's mailbox process and retain it.

b. Usage and technical information

Our hosting provider may collect technical information in server access and security logs, such as your IP address, browser and device details, referring page, requested path, and timestamps. The fields collected and retention period depend on the provider and its configuration. We plan to enable Google Analytics and Google AdSense on the public site. When active, Google Analytics may receive page and usage events and browser or device details; Google states that Analytics does not log or store IP addresses, though it may derive approximate location from request data. AdSense may process network request information, including IP addresses, browser or device details, and identifiers, for ad delivery and measurement. The services' exact data use depends on their settings and the choices available to visitors.

c. Cookies and tracking technologies

The current static site does not use account, preference, or newsletter cookies. When Google Analytics and AdSense are enabled, those services may set or read cookies and similar identifiers. Analytics may use first-party cookies to distinguish visitors and sessions. AdSense may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, or other identifiers for ad delivery, frequency capping, measurement, and fraud prevention. Whether ads are personalized depends on service settings, visitor choices, and applicable requirements. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain and improve the Service and its editorial content;
• Operate, monitor and secure the Service, including fraud prevention, abuse prevention and troubleshooting technical issues;
• Respond to your inquiries, corrections and other communications;
• Measure site visits and usage through Google Analytics when it is enabled;
• Comply with legal obligations;
• Serve and measure advertising through Google AdSense when it is enabled, with personalization depending on settings and visitor choices as described in Section 8.

We do not sell personal information for money. When Google Analytics or AdSense is enabled, Google may receive or process information for measurement and advertising purposes. Some advertising-related disclosures may be treated as sharing for targeted advertising under applicable privacy laws; see Section 12.

3. How we share and disclose your information

a. Service providers. Our hosting provider operates the website and may process access and security logs. Google Fonts is loaded from Google's servers. When enabled on the public site, Google Analytics and Google AdSense will receive information as described in Sections 1, 6, and 8. Contact messages are sent through the email application and provider you choose, not through a website email-delivery service.

b. Legal compliance. We may disclose information where required by law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, property or safety, or the rights, property or safety of others.

c. Business transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. Any acquirer will be bound by this Privacy Policy with respect to your information.

d. With your consent. We may share information with third parties when you have given us your explicit consent to do so.

4. Data processing details

The applicable basis for processing depends on the service and the visitor's location. Hosting logs may be used to secure and troubleshoot the website. Analytics and advertising will be configured according to the choices and requirements applicable to the regions served.

• Security and operation — processing needed to deliver, protect, and troubleshoot the website.
• Measurement and advertising — Google Analytics and AdSense processing when those services are enabled, subject to their configuration and any choices or consent required by applicable law.
• Legal obligations — processing required to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Data retention. The website does not store contact-form submissions or maintain its own analytics database. Hosting-log retention depends on the hosting provider. Google Analytics retention depends on the settings of the associated Analytics property, and Google advertising data is handled under Google's settings and policies. We do not state a fixed retention period for these provider-managed records.

International processing. Our hosting provider and Google may process information in countries other than your own. The locations and safeguards depend on the services and account settings used at deployment and on applicable law. See the provider notices linked in Section 6 for more information.

5. Data security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect your information, including TLS/SSL encryption for data in transit, access controls, and periodic security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Third-party services

The current site loads web fonts from Google Fonts. Google Analytics and Google AdSense are planned for the public site and will process visitor information only when their tags are enabled. Google explains how information is used on partner sites in its partner-site privacy notice. Google's Privacy Policy also describes its handling of information. We do not control Google's independent processing.

7. Your privacy rights and choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:

• Right of access — to obtain a copy of the personal information we hold about you;
• Right to rectification — to correct inaccurate personal information;
• Right to erasure — to delete your personal information, subject to legal retention requirements;
• Right to restrict processing — to limit how we use your information;
• Right to data portability — to receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format;
• Right to object — to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing;
• Right to withdraw consent — at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. You may also manage cookies through your browser settings.

8. Google advertising and your choices

When Google AdSense is enabled, Google may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, or other identifiers to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud, and control how often an ad is shown. Depending on Google's settings and your choices, ads may be personalized based on information such as your activity on this and other sites. If additional advertising vendors are enabled through our AdSense account, we will identify them here and link to their privacy notices before they serve ads.

You can manage Google's ad personalization through these services:

• Google My Ad Center
• Google ads settings
• How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps

Additional opt-out channels:

• Digital Advertising Alliance
• Network Advertising Initiative

Turning off personalized advertising does not stop all ads. Google may still use information for contextual ads, measurement, security, or frequency capping, as described in its notices. Cookie controls in your browser may also limit some technologies.

9. Applicable privacy laws

We do not sell personal information for money. When Google Analytics or AdSense is enabled, technical and usage information may be disclosed to Google for measurement, ad delivery, ad measurement, security, and, when settings and visitor choices allow, personalized advertising.
