Introduction
This policy explains what this website collects, why, and what happens to it. The site is informational: it does not take orders, does not process payments, and does not hold an account for you.
Information We Collect
The contact form asks for a name, an email address, an optional subject, and a message. The newsletter box asks for an email address. Neither form is connected to a mail server at present, so submissions are not delivered or stored; the page tells you so when you press the button.
Our web server records standard request logs: IP address, browser user agent, referring page, and the time of the request. These logs exist to keep the site running and to spot abuse.
Analytics may record which pages you view, roughly where you are in the world, and how you arrived. Analytics data is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally.
Cookies
This site stores a small flag in your browser to remember whether you dismissed the cookie notice, so it does not reappear on every page. Analytics, if enabled, sets its own cookies to count visits.
You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking them will not break the pages here; the cookie notice will simply reappear each visit.
Third-Party Links and Affiliate Tracking
Product links on this site lead to Amazon.com and carry an affiliate tag. Following one lets Amazon attribute the visit to this site, which is how the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program credits a qualifying purchase. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
Once you leave this site, the destination's own privacy policy applies. We receive commission reports in aggregate and never see your name, address, or payment details.
How We Use Information
We use logs and analytics to understand which pages people read and to fix what breaks. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with advertisers.
Data Retention
Server logs rotate on the host's standard schedule. Analytics retention follows the analytics provider's own default period.
Security
Pages are served over HTTPS. No system is perfectly secure, so treat anything you type into a public website accordingly and never send payment details through a contact form.
Children's Privacy
This site is written for adult and teen hobbyists and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has sent us information, write to us and we will remove it.

You can browse without submitting anything, block cookies, and use your browser's do-not-track setting. To ask what we hold about you or to request deletion, write to the address below.
