Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 26, 2026
BlockPedia (“we”, “the site”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what data is collected when you visit, why, and the choices you have.
1. Information we collect
- Log data (automatic): IP address, browser type, pages visited and timestamps, collected by our hosting provider for security and operations.
- Analytics: we use privacy-respecting, cookie-light analytics to understand which guides are useful. No personal profiles are built.
- Newsletter email (voluntary): only if you subscribe. Used solely to send the newsletter; unsubscribe anytime via the link in every email.
2. Cookies and advertising (Google AdSense)
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings, and opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices.
- Where required (EEA/UK/Switzerland), a consent banner is shown before non-essential cookies are set.
3. Your rights (GDPR / CCPA)
- Access & deletion: email us to request a copy or deletion of personal data we hold (typically only your newsletter email).
- CCPA/CPRA: we do not sell personal information. California residents may request disclosure or deletion by contacting us.
- Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control: we honor GPC signals where technically feasible.
4. Data retention & security
Server logs rotate within 30 days. Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe. We use HTTPS everywhere and limit data access to site operators.
5. Children
The site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their personal data.
6. Changes
We may update this policy; the “last updated” date above reflects the current version.
