Privacy Policy

Privacy matters but it can be confusing. This page explains our approach to privacy and how it affects you.

SHORT VERSION

  • We collect anonymous statistics about your visit to our website, like which of our pages you viewed.
  • If you sign up using the website we take great care to keep your information safe and we’ll never share it with others without your express permission.
  • We never share your data with 3rd parties except to help us deliver our own services.

These are just the key points. If you need detail, keep reading.

MEASURING VISITORS

We measure visitors from the website and products using Google Analytics. This service records what pages you view within the site, how you arrived at the site and some basic information about your computer.

We anonymize the data in Google Analytics – so we don’t know who you are; just that somebody visited the site.

The information we collect helps us understand what parts of our site are doing well, how people arrive at the site and so on. Like most websites, we use this information to make the website better.

You can learn more about Google Analytics or opt out if you wish. Google Analytics data is automatically deleted 26 months after your last visit.

Our website and products include videos hosted either by Hostinger or YouTube. They record anonymous, aggregated statistics that help us optimize the  content (e.g. at which points in the video are people most likely to stop watching).

DISCUSSION COMMENTS

We allow visitors to discuss articles on the blog via third-party discussion apps. Before you can leave a comment, you must first press a button which loads the discussion plugin. Depending on the date they were published, most of the articles use Disqus comments plugin.

Once you have opted into leaving comments, these plugins may track your visit to our site. Disqus will know what pages you viewed and what you write in any comments you leave. Of course, all the comments you leave are also publicly visible on the Internet alongside your name, so we do not imagine this is a concern for many people.

If you log in via Disqus, the providers of these plugin will be able to link your activity to that network. In this way, your activity may be personally identifiable. You can learn more about their privacy policy by visiting this link.
