Privacy-First Approach

  • No sensitive data or personal information collected
  • Cookie-free, privacy-friendly analytics only
  • Fully GDPR compliant
  • No data sharing with third parties

Information We Collect

We collect minimal, anonymous data to improve our service:

  • Anonymous Analytics: Aggregated page views and usage patterns without personal tracking
  • Technical Data: Browser type and basic technical information for optimization
  • Local Preferences: Theme and settings stored locally on your device

What We Don't Collect

We explicitly do not collect:

  • Personally identifiable information (name, email, phone)
  • Payment or financial information
  • Precise location data or device identifiers
  • Cross-site tracking data

How We Use Data

The minimal data we collect is used solely to maintain and improve our service, understand usage patterns, and ensure technical stability. We never sell or share data with third parties for marketing purposes.

GDPR Compliance

We follow GDPR principles including data minimization and purpose limitation. Our legal basis is legitimate interest for service improvement. Since we don't use tracking cookies or collect personal data, no consent banner is required.

Third-Party Services
