Privacy Policy

What follows is what gearrank.net records when you read a page, and what happens once you leave for Amazon.

Data we hold

Nothing is collected from you deliberately. The web server writes an access log as every web server does: which page, when, from what browser, arriving from where, with the address shortened. Email you send is retained with your address so a reply can be sent.

How we count readers

An analytics tool may be in use to show which pages get read and where readers came from. It reports numbers and sources, not identities.

When you follow a product link

Once you click through to Amazon you are on Amazon’s site under Amazon’s terms. The tag in the link tells them the visit came from here. They send us totals, never details of who bought what.

About cookies

The site itself sets no tracking cookie. WordPress may set a cookie if you leave a comment or log in as a member of staff. Third parties named below can set their own cookies once you interact with them.

Your choices

Blocking cookies costs you nothing here — the pages work without them. If you are covered by the GDPR in the EU or UK, or by California privacy law, you can ask us what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be erased. [email protected] is the address for that.

Younger readers

Nothing here is directed at children, and we do not knowingly gather data about anyone under the age at which consent is required where they live.

If this policy changes

If this policy changes we will replace the text on this page. There is no archive of earlier versions.
