Contact Form

When you submit the contact form, we receive your name, email address, subject line, and message. This information is sent directly to the site administrator via email and is used only to respond to your inquiry. It is not stored in a database or shared with any third party.

Email Subscriptions

If you subscribe to receive updates, your email address is stored by MailPoet, which runs on this site’s server. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email. We do not sell, rent, or share subscriber email addresses.

Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics (via Google Site Kit) to understand how visitors find and use the site — for example, which pages are visited and what search terms bring people here. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects anonymized usage data. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For details, see Google’s Privacy Policy.

Cookies

This site uses a small number of cookies: WordPress session cookies (required for the site to function), Google Analytics cookies (for anonymous usage statistics), and MailPoet cookies (if you interact with the subscription form). No advertising or tracking cookies are used.

Third-Party Services

This site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google’s servers when you visit a page. Google may log your IP address in connection with this request. See Google Fonts Privacy for details.

The site is hosted by SiteGround, which maintains standard server access logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited). These logs are used for security and troubleshooting and are automatically deleted on a rolling basis.
