This policy covers the website invertkeeping.com.
The InvertMate and CrabPod mobile apps collect and handle data differently and have their own separate policies:
If you’re looking for how the apps handle your data, use those links.
Who runs this site
InvertKeeping is an independent site operated by a single person, based in Morocco. There’s no company, no team, and no third party with access to anything collected here.
For any privacy question, use the contact page.
The short version
You can read every guide on this site without giving me anything. I don’t require accounts, I don’t run ads, I don’t sell data, and there’s nothing here to buy.
The longer version below covers the technical details.
What gets collected when you read a page
Nothing that identifies you personally is required to browse.
Like nearly every website, the hosting server keeps standard access logs: IP address, browser and device type, the page requested, the referring page, and a timestamp. These exist for security and error diagnosis. Hosting is provided by Namecheap and the logs are held on their infrastructure under their standard retention.
When you use the contact form
The contact form collects your name, email address, and message. That information is used only to reply to you.
It is not added to any mailing list, not shared, and not sold. If you’d like your message deleted after we’ve finished corresponding, ask and I’ll delete it.
Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics, connected through the Google Site Kit plugin, to see which guides people actually find useful.
In practice this tells me things like “several hundred people read the isopod substrate section and then left the page,” which is what decides which guide gets written or rewritten next. It’s aggregate traffic data. I can see patterns, not people.
Google may set cookies to tell returning visitors from new ones. Google’s handling of that data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
If you’d rather not be counted, you can install Google’s browser opt-out add-on, or use your browser’s built-in tracking protection. Neither affects your ability to read anything here.
Search Console
Google Search Console shows me which search queries bring people to the site and how pages rank. It reports aggregated query data and cannot identify individual searchers.
Cookies
Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. This site uses them for two things:
- Analytics. Set by Google Analytics, to distinguish returning visitors from new ones.
- Caching. Set by WP Super Cache to serve pages faster.
There are no advertising cookies on this site. No ad network runs here and no visitor data is sold or shared with advertisers.
Every browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings. Blocking them will not break anything on this site.
What is not collected
To be explicit about the absences:
- No advertising networks, ad trackers, or retargeting pixels
- No data sold or shared with data brokers
- No email marketing list or newsletter
- No reader accounts or logins
- No payment processing, because nothing here is for sale
- No social media tracking pixels
Links to other sites
Guides link out to the App Store, to Google, and occasionally to other resources. Once you follow a link, that site’s privacy policy applies instead of this one. I have no control over what other sites collect.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has submitted information through the contact form, contact me and I’ll delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request a copy of any personal data held about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, object to how it’s processed, or complain to your local data protection authority.
In practice, unless you’ve used the contact form, this site holds no personal data about you beyond automatic server logs. If you have used the contact form and want your message removed, ask and it’s done.
Requests go through the contact page.
Data retention
Contact form submissions are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry. Stored entries are deleted periodically.
Server access logs follow Namecheap’s standard hosting retention. Google Analytics data is retained for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the “Last updated” date at the top changes with it. Anything material will be noted on the page rather than slipped in quietly.
Contact
Privacy questions, deletion requests, and corrections all go through the contact page.
