Privacy Policy
What we collect, which third parties are involved, and how to get your data removed.
Last updated
The short version
Stackfeature has no user accounts, no login and no paywall. We do not ask you to create a profile, and we do not sell personal data.
What data exists is mostly the unavoidable kind: server logs, and whatever the analytics and advertising services listed below collect. If you email us, we have your email.
What is stored in your browser
If you use the light/dark switch, your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under one key so the next page opens the same way. It never leaves your device. Fonts are served from this site, not from a font service.
What we collect directly
- Email — if you write to us, your message and address are kept in our inbox.
- Correspondence — anything you send us about corrections, pitches or commercial enquiries.
- Server logs — IP address, user agent, requested URL and timestamp, retained for security and debugging.
We do not collect payment details, because nothing on the site is sold to readers.
Third parties
These services receive data when you visit:
- Cloudflare, our hosting provider — serves the site and keeps standard request logs, including IP address and user agent.
Each has its own privacy policy governing what it does with that data, and we do not control their processing.
Cookies and consent
No analytics or advertising cookies are currently set. If that changes, this page changes with it and a consent mechanism will be in place before any non-essential cookie is set in a jurisdiction that requires one.
Legal basis and your rights
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, our basis is legitimate interest for security logging and basic measurement, and consent for advertising and non-essential analytics.
You have the right to ask what we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to object to processing, and to complain to your data protection authority. Email editorial@stackfeature.com and we will action it.
Under the CCPA and similar US state laws, you have comparable rights of access and deletion, and a right to opt out of "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. We do not sell personal information.
Children
This site is aimed at adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. If you believe we have, tell us and it will be deleted.
Changes and contact
Material changes to this policy will move the "last updated" date at the top of this page. Questions or requests: editorial@stackfeature.com.
This policy describes our actual practice. It is not legal advice, and if you operate a site yourself you should take your own.
