3. Services We Use

3.1 Cloudflare

Our website may use Cloudflare services for hosting, security, performance, content delivery, and analytics.

We may use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand basic website traffic and performance. Cloudflare Web Analytics is designed to provide privacy-focused analytics and does not require traditional tracking cookies for basic analytics.

Cloudflare may process technical data such as IP addresses, request metadata, browser information, and security-related information in order to deliver, secure, and optimize the website.

Cloudflare’s own privacy practices are described in Cloudflare’s privacy documentation.

3.2 YouTube Embeds

Our website may embed videos from YouTube.

When you view or interact with embedded YouTube content, Google/YouTube may collect information about your device, browser, and interaction with the video. YouTube may set cookies or use similar technologies, especially when you play an embedded video.

Where possible, we may use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced embed mode, which uses the `youtube-nocookie.com` domain. However, privacy-enhanced mode does not necessarily mean that no data is processed by YouTube once you interact with the video.

If we introduce a newsletter, we may use a third-party email service provider to manage subscriptions, send emails, and measure email performance.

Such providers may process your email address and related subscription data on our behalf.

The specific provider will be listed in this Privacy Policy once selected.

3.4 Advertising Partners

If we introduce advertising, we may work with third-party advertising networks or platforms.

These partners may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies to measure ads, personalize ads, prevent fraud, and report performance.

The specific advertising partners will be listed in this Privacy Policy once selected.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device by websites or third-party services. Similar technologies include pixels, local storage, tags, and tracking scripts.

Our website may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies.

4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These are required for the website to function properly, provide security, prevent abuse, or deliver content.

These cookies usually do not require consent where they are essential for the service requested by the user.

4.2 Analytics Cookies and Technologies

We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the website and improve the user experience.

Currently, we plan to use Cloudflare Web Analytics for basic website traffic statistics.

4.3 Embedded Content Cookies

Embedded content, such as YouTube videos, may set cookies or use similar technologies when loaded or played.

YouTube may process data according to Google’s own privacy and cookie policies.

4.4 Advertising Cookies

If enabled in the future, advertising cookies may be used to show relevant ads, measure advertising performance, prevent fraud, and manage ad frequency.

Where required by law, advertising cookies will only be used after you give consent.

If we introduce newsletter tools or marketing features, related cookies or tracking technologies may be used to manage subscriptions, understand email engagement, or improve communications.

Where required by law, these technologies will only be used with your consent.

5. Managing Cookies

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies.

If we use non-essential cookies, advertising cookies, or similar tracking technologies, we may also provide a cookie banner or consent management tool allowing you to accept, reject, or customize your preferences.

Please note that blocking some cookies may affect the functionality of the website.
