INFORMATION WE DO NOT COLLECT, AND PRACTICES WE DO NOT ENGAGE IN:

• Unless you choose to contact us and give us some sort of identifying information, we don’t know or care who you are. We do not automatically collect any personally identifiable information (PII). We do not “anonymize” information, and have no need to, because we don’t share personal information with anyone and because regarding our analytics there is nothing to anonymize.
• We do not place cookies or other persistent identifiers.
• We do not engage in or permit cross-site or cross-device tracking.
• We have no advertising and have no connection to the adtech industry or surveillance capitalism.
• We – that is, PrivacyPost.io – own 100% of our website data and we do not disclose or share it with any third parties.

California Residents:
Pursuant to Cal. Civ. Code §1798.140(d)(1), we are exempt from the California Consumer Privacy Act.

EEA Residents:
We do not intentionally target people in the EEA and thus we are exempt from the GDPR. See EDPB Guidelines 3/2018 on the territorial scope of the GDPR (Article 3), Ver. 2.1 (Nov 12, 2019). GDPR Article 14, Paragraphs 5(a) and (b), and Article 27, Pararaph 2 also apply. We do not collect personal data as defined in Art. 4 of the GDPR, except that which you voluntarily provide pursuant to our “contact us” form. We do not pass any such information on to any third party processors or share it with anyone.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time; the most recent update is always indicted at the top.
