Effective Date: [February 7, 2026]
At Camera-Digitize-Archive, I believe in the preservation of history and the protection of privacy. This site is designed as a free resource for archivists, and I aim to collect as little personal data as possible.
1. Information I Do Not Collect
I do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. I do not run independent email marketing lists, third-party advertisements, or tracking pixels (like Facebook Pixel).
2. Information Collected by WordPress.com
This website is hosted by WordPress.com. When you visit, certain information is automatically processed by their systems to keep the site running:
- Technical Data: This includes your IP address, browser type, and operating system. This helps with site security and spam prevention.
- Site Statistics: I see “aggregate” data (e.g., “10 people from the UK visited today”). I cannot see who you are individually from this data.
- Cookies: WordPress uses cookies to remember your preferences if you are logged into a WordPress account or if you leave a comment.
3. If You Subscribe or Comment
If you choose to interact with the site, you are providing information voluntarily:
- Subscribers: If you follow this blog via WordPress.com, your username or email is stored by WordPress to send you new post notifications. I can see your email address/username in my subscriber list, but I will never use it for any purpose other than delivering the content you requested.
- Comments: If you leave a comment, the data shown in the comments form (name/email), your IP address, and browser user agent string are collected to help with spam detection (via Akismet).
4. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Unsubscribe: You can stop receiving emails at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any WordPress notification email.
- Request Deletion: If you would like me to delete a comment you previously left, please contact me.
5. Contact Me
If you have any questions about this policy or how your data is handled, you can reach out via the contact information on my [About Page] or via email at: camera-digitize-archive@proton.me.
