Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

This site uses a self-hosted GoatCounter instance to measure traffic (which pages are visited, where visitors come from, what device and approximate region they use). GoatCounter sets no cookies and does not store IP addresses; user-agent strings are reduced to browser and system categories, and raw user-agent strings recorded for detected bots are retained for no more than 90 days. Unique visitors are distinguished by a temporary server-side hash of IP address and user agent, salted with a value that rotates every eight hours and becomes irreversible after that window. The site requires no account and collects no personally identifying information such as names or email addresses. Where the GDPR applies, we process this limited data on the basis of our legitimate interest in understanding aggregate traffic and keeping the site secure; it is not used for profiling or advertising.

2. Cookies

This site sets no cookies, and the analytics script writes no cookies or localStorage entries. GoatCounter does not rely on client-side storage to distinguish visitors: it computes a temporary hash on the server, and the salt rotates every eight hours.

3. Third parties and international transfer

Public pages do not load any third-party icon font: interface icons are delivered inline as SVG, so no extra third-party request is made. When a post has no cover image, the blog list and homepage carousel fall back to the third-party image service picsum.photos; that request exposes your IP address to that service. Traffic analytics is self-hosted and processed on this site's own server: the tracking script and the collection endpoint are served from this domain, and no third-party analytics provider receives visitor data. The analytics database is stored on this site's server in the United States and contains aggregate counts and short-lived hashes, not raw IP addresses. If you access the site from outside the United States, your request is transmitted there.

4. How long we keep it

Raw analytics records are retained for 90 days and then deleted by a scheduled maintenance task; aggregate daily counts are kept. Server access logs are retained for 14 days.

5. Server logs

The application server does not keep an access log, so the application logs on the server contain no visitor data at all. The reverse proxy keeps an access log containing IP addresses and request times; it is rotated daily and deleted automatically after 14 days.

6. Your choices

The analytics used here relies on no cookies and does not track visitors across sites, so it does not require you to click Accept. You can still block the analytics script with your browser's privacy settings or a content blocker; the site will continue to work normally.

7. Your rights

Where applicable law provides, you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you; to object to or restrict processing; to request data portability; and to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. This site does not sell personal information, and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. The controller of the personal data described in this policy is LottoAnalyse, the operator of this site. Because the site requires no account and its analytics records are aggregated and kept only as short-lived hashes, we may not be able to identify a particular visitor's records; if that is the case, we will say so. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below.
