3. What Personal Data We Collect

We may collect and process the following data:

  • Login Information: If you register or log into our site, we collect your email address and username.

  • Usage Data: Includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, and referring URLs.

  • Cookies: Used only for login and session management, not for tracking or profiling.

  • Third-Party Tracking: Google Analytics tracks general usage data (see below).

4. Use of Cookies

Our website uses only essential cookies required for user login and session management. These cookies do not track your browsing behavior or profile you in any way.

We do not use cookies for marketing or tracking purposes directly.

However, we use Google Analytics, a third-party service that may track user behavior for analytical purposes. This data helps us understand website performance and improve content.

5. Google Analytics

We currently use Google Analytics, provided by Google LLC. This service uses cookies and collects usage data such as:

  • Pages visited

  • Time spent on pages

  • Device/browser information

  • User’s general location (city-level)

Google processes this data in accordance with their Privacy Policy. We have enabled IP anonymization to protect user privacy to the extent possible.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via Google's opt-out tools.

6. Future Use of Advertising Services

In the future, we may integrate Google AdSense or other advertising networks to support our platform. These services typically use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Serve relevant ads

  • Track ad performance

  • Build anonymous user profiles for targeted advertising

We will notify users and request explicit consent before enabling any tracking cookies related to ads. A cookie banner and consent management system will be implemented when ads are introduced.

7. Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data based on:

  • Your consent (e.g., analytics, future ad cookies)

  • Legitimate interests (e.g., ensuring website functionality)

  • Legal obligations (e.g., responding to lawful requests)

8. Data Retention

We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined above, and in accordance with legal requirements.

9. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data

  • Rectify incorrect data

  • Request deletion (the “right to be forgotten”)

  • Restrict or object to processing

  • Withdraw consent at any time

  • File a complaint with a supervisory authority (e.g., BfDI in Germany)

To exercise these rights, contact us at [Insert contact email].

10. Data Security

We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

11. International Transfers

Third-party services like Google Analytics may process data outside the EU. We ensure such providers follow GDPR-compliant safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Effective Date."
