What we collect
We do not ask you to register, and we do not run a comment form. The only personal data we hold is what you choose to send us: if you write to [email protected], we keep your message and your address for as long as it takes to answer you, and then for as long as we need it to keep a record of the answer.
Our web server writes standard access logs — IP address, time, requested path, referrer and user agent. Those logs are used to see which pages are being read and to spot abuse, and are rotated on the host's normal schedule.
Advertising
This site is supported by advertising served through Google AdSense.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.
- Google's advertising system uses the DoubleClick DART cookie and related identifiers; Google's own practices are described in the Google Privacy & Terms.
If you are in a region where consent is required before advertising cookies are set, the consent message shown on this site controls which of those cookies are used, and you can change your choice at any time from the link in that message.
Your rights
Under the GDPR (EEA, UK, Switzerland). You have the right to be informed about the processing described here, to access the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing. We rely on legitimate interest for access logs and on consent for advertising cookies where consent is required.
Under the CCPA/CPRA (California). You have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request its deletion, to correct it, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and not to be discriminated against for exercising those rights. We do not sell personal information for money. Because advertising cookies can be used to build a profile across sites, you can opt out of that use through the advertising links above, and the "Your Privacy Choices" link in the consent message does the same thing.
To exercise any of these rights, write to [email protected]. We answer within 30 days and we do not charge for the first request.
