Privacy
Short version: this is a static site with no accounts and no comment forms.
What this site does with your data
The pages here are plain static files. There is no login, no newsletter, no comment box and no way to upload anything. The walkthrough checklist is stored only in your own browser's memory for as long as the tab is open — nothing is sent anywhere when you tick a box.
Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics 4 (measurement id G-STRJC9SYE8) to count page views and see which guide pages are actually useful. It sets cookies and sends your IP address to Google; the data is used only in aggregate, never to identify you. If you would rather not be counted, any content blocker or browser tracking protection stops it, and every answer on the site still works without it.
Advertising
Advertising on this site is served by Adsterra. Which unit you get is decided by your input device, and you only ever see one:
A mouse (desktop) gets the native unit, loaded from pl31412442.profitableratecpmnetwork.com. Its script is created at runtime and is not even requested on touch devices. Adsterra sets its own cookies or device identifiers when that slot loads.
A finger (phone or tablet) gets a 320x50 banner loaded from bauval.org inside a sandboxed iframe. That sandbox does not allow the frame to navigate the page, so the banner cannot redirect you away from a guide the way a native unit would.
In both cases we receive only aggregate counts, and an ad blocker stops the slot completely — the guides never depend on it.
Embedded video
Some guide pages embed a YouTube video through youtube-nocookie.com. The player only connects to YouTube when the page loads that frame, and YouTube's own privacy policy and terms then apply to that connection. If you would rather not load it at all, use a browser extension that blocks third-party frames — the written walkthrough never depends on the video.
Hosting logs and contact
The site is served by Cloudflare Pages, which keeps ordinary request logs under Cloudflare's terms as a hosting provider. If you email the address on the contact page, your message is used only to answer you and to fix whatever you reported. Questions about any of the above can go to [email protected].
