Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how quietporchhome.eu ("the site") handles information in connection with your use of the website located at https://quietporchhome.eu.
1. Information collected
This site is static and does not operate a backend server that stores user data. The following limited data may be processed:
Contact form submissions
If you submit the contact form on the About page, the form is processed client-side only. No data is transmitted to a server or stored. The form exists to simulate a contact interface; submissions are not received or retained by the site operator.
Cookies and local storage
The site uses browser localStorage to store your cookie consent preference (accepted or rejected). This data remains on your device and is not transmitted anywhere. No third-party tracking cookies are set by this site.
Server logs
The hosting provider may log standard server access data including IP addresses, browser types, and pages requested. This data is retained by the hosting provider according to their own policies and is not accessed by the site operator for user profiling.
2. External services
This site loads the Inter typeface via Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com). When your browser loads this font, a request is sent to Google's servers. Google's privacy policy governs that data: policies.google.com/privacy.
Article images are loaded directly from Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org), a public media repository. Loading these images sends a request to Wikimedia Foundation servers. Wikimedia's privacy policy is available at: wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_policy.
3. Cookies
This site uses one item of localStorage (not a traditional cookie):
- qph_cookie_consent — stores your response to the consent banner (value: "accepted" or "rejected"). Stored in your browser only. No expiry date — persists until cleared by the user.
To remove this preference, clear your browser's localStorage for this domain through your browser settings.
4. Your rights under GDPR
As this site operates within the European Union's regulatory environment, the following rights apply to users in EU member states:
- Right to access personal data held about you
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten")
- Right to data portability
- Right to object to processing
- Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
In Poland, the supervisory authority for data protection is the Urząd Ochrony Danych Osobowych (UODO): uodo.gov.pl.
As this site collects no personal data directly, these rights have limited practical application. Any requests can be submitted through the contact form on the About page.
5. Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under the age of 16 and does not knowingly collect any information from children.
6. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated to reflect changes in site functionality or applicable regulations. The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised.
