What Personal Data We collect, Why We collect it, and who we share it with

I do not use personalized ads, and no personal information is ever sold to any other businesses or third parties. Since it is not a membership site and I am not selling my own products on the site (in other words I am not collecting things like credit card details) and I have not made a contact form, or email subscription form available, or a facility for visitors to comment on blog posts, only the most basic data, such as internet protocol (IP) addresses, and impersonal data about visitors’ website interactions is collected.

Analytics

I send the most basic data to Google Analytics in order to track and monitor website interactions and collate statistics.

The collected data is shared with Google Analytics for tracking and collating basic and impersonal statistics, such as where the website visitors were coming from, what countries and from what sources, like they came to the website via a web search or through a particular social media platform, and the behaviors of the website users, like how many people visited the website on a particular day, from which countries, what devices they were using, and how many times a particular page was viewed.

Where we send your data

Though this may change, I do not presently collect anything else like email addresses, as mentioned, or other any other data associated with comments and opt-in forms, or any other more person-specific data, like credit card information. As this website does not collect the more personalized type of data, that type of data can never be sold or shared with anyone.

The data that is collected is shared with Google Analytics for tracking and monitoring website interactions and collating statistics, which are basically about how website visitors got to the website, and what they did while they were on the website. such as what devices they were using, what countries the website visitors were coming from, and from what sources, like whether you came to the website via a web search or through a specific social media platform, and it is also used for tracking the behaviors of the website users while they were actually on the website, like how many people visited the website on a particular day, what actions they took, how long people stayed and how many times a particular post was viewed. The purpose of collating this information is to help with marketing efforts.
