Privacy Policies

GDPR

GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and pertains to individuals residing in the EU.

​

“The Regulation acknowledges that many [small businesses] pose a smaller risk to the privacy of data subjects than larger organizations. For example, Article 30 of the Regulation states that organizations with fewer than 250 employees are not required to maintain a record of processing activities under its responsibility, unless “the processing it carries out is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, the processing is not occasional, or the processing includes special categories of data […] or personal data relating to criminal convictions and offenses”.” Reference

Website Usage Analytics

This website may use Wix Analytics or Google Analytics, a free piece of software provided by Google which requires cookies to function. These types of tools are pretty much standard for new websites these days. They paint a blurry but helpful picture of the traffic to a website. It doesn’t gather any personally identifying data about users though. It records impersonal info that is only interesting as a statistic such as:

​

• How long visitors stay on this website.

• Which pages are viewed most.

• If another website is pointing visitors to this site with a link.

• What kind of computer operating systems visitors are using.

• And quite a bit more.
   

The tracking information allows us to better understand what pages are appealing to visitors on my site, and what is uninteresting. This allows us to make better decisions about design and writing. It also lets us know what sort of devices visitors are using to view the site (mobile vs tablet vs computer), to make sure that our website is up-to-date for optimized viewing. Occasionally, we may run a report to see if people are hating or loving certain pages of the website, and other such things.  No personally identifying data is included in this type of reporting.
