Privacy Policy

The public website can collect standard technical information such as pages visited, browser type, approximate location, and referring pages through hosting, analytics, and security tools. If you contact the site, the information you send may be used to respond to your request.

When you join the newsletter we store your email address and the signup source. When you use the contact form we store the name, email, subject and message you provided. These records are stored in Firebase Firestore with access restricted to site administrators. You can request removal by contacting us; email delivery and unsubscribe functionality must be configured before we start sending campaigns.

Creator and administrator accounts use Firebase Authentication. If you apply for Pro access, we may retain your account identity, payment reference, payment status, activation and expiry dates for verification and support. Creator reward claims are recorded to prevent reuse and abuse. We do not ask for or store card payment details.

If you sign in as an administrator, the authentication provider may process your email address, provider profile, user ID, and session data.

Google AdSense may serve ads on eligible public pages. Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers or similar technologies to serve, measure and personalize advertising, subject to your location, consent choices and Google account settings. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to this or other websites. Learn about Google's advertising practices and personalization controls at Google's advertising technologies page, Ads Settings, and My Ad Center. You can also review some third-party personalized advertising opt-outs through YourAdChoices. Browser settings can also control cookies, though disabling them may affect site features.

Some interactive tools may load Google Analytics to measure usage. Those tools may also use Firebase Authentication for account sign-in and Firebase services to store access-related records. For visitors in regions requiring advertising consent, an appropriate consent-management platform must be configured before eligible advertising is enabled. Where required, visitors should be able to review and manage their choices through that platform. This privacy page is informational; it is not a consent-management interface.

Firebase provides authentication and database services, and Cloudinary may host article imagery. Our hosting provider may process requests and security logs. Contact messages and subscriber records are retained for the purposes described above until no longer needed or removal is requested, subject to applicable legal recordkeeping requirements. Payment verification records may need longer retention for accounting and dispute handling.

You may request access, correction or deletion of information associated with your contact, newsletter or site account by using the contact page. You can control your browser cookies and ad preferences through browser and provider settings; some site features require authentication cookies or browser storage.

Information is used to operate the website, protect admin access, improve content, respond to messages, understand site performance, and maintain legal or policy compliance.
