Privacy Policy

Welcome to our website. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled securely and responsibly. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your information.

1. Information We Collect

We believe in data minimization. We only collect the information necessary to provide you with a good browsing experience and a functioning comment system.

Analytics Data (Umami)

To understand how our website is performing and what content our readers enjoy, we use Umami, a privacy-first, open-source analytics tool.

Umami does not collect any Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
It does not use cookies to track your behavior across other websites.
It only processes anonymized metrics such as page views, referring sites, browser types, and device screen sizes.

Comment System (Comentario)

Our interactive comment section is powered by Comentario. If you choose to engage with our comment section, the following data may be processed:

Authentication Data: If you sign in to leave a comment (e.g., via Google, GitHub, or other OAuth providers), Comentario will collect your basic profile information, such as your display name, email address, and avatar.
IP Address: Comentario temporarily processes IP addresses to prevent spam, rate-limit abusive requests, and maintain platform security.
Comment Content: Any text you submit in the comment box will be stored publicly on our servers.

2. How We Use Your Data

The data we collect is used strictly for operational purposes:

To monitor website traffic and improve content quality (via Umami).
To enable user authentication, display comments, and notify you of replies (via Comentario).
To detect and prevent spam, malicious activity, and security threats.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third-party advertisers or data brokers.

What are cookies?

Cookies and Local Storage are small text files saved on your device by your browser to store preferences and session information.

How we use them

We respect your digital footprint and strive for a tracker-free experience. Here is exactly how cookies and local storage are used on this site:

Analytics (No Cookies): Our analytics provider, Umami, is configured to operate without using cookies. Your browsing activity on this site is not tracked via cookies.
Comment Session (Essential): The Comentario widget uses your browser’s Local Storage and/or strictly necessary Session Cookies. These are required solely to maintain your login state, remember your theme preference (e.g., dark/light mode), and allow you to post comments without signing in repeatedly.
Zero Advertising Cookies: We do not use any third-party marketing, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies.

By continuing to use our comment system, you consent to the use of these essential functional storage mechanisms.

3. Third-Party Services

While our core website operates independently, we rely on third-party OAuth providers (if you choose to log in to comment). Please note that when you authenticate via third parties, their respective privacy policies also apply to how they handle your login data.

4. Your Rights and Data Deletion

You have the right to:

Access the personal data (comments and profile info) you have provided.
Request the correction or deletion of your data.

If you wish to have your comments or profile data removed from our Comentario database, please contact us.

5. Contact Us

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, please feel free to reach out to us.
