Privacy Policy

1. What data do we collect?

Standard server logs

Like every website, our hosting server automatically records basic access information when your browser requests a page. This typically includes:

• Your IP address (usually anonymised or truncated by our host)
• The page URL requested
• The date and time of the request
• Your browser type and operating system (user agent string)
• The HTTP status code returned

These logs are used solely for security monitoring and diagnosing technical problems. They are not used for marketing, profiling, or tracking individual users. Log data is typically retained for a short period (14–30 days) before being deleted.

localStorage (your browser)

SimplyCrypto.info stores a small amount of data in your browser's localStorage to enhance your experience. This includes:

• Which articles you have marked as "understood" (stored as a list of article slugs)
• Your preferred reading level (Simple or Standard)

This data lives entirely on your device. It is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this domain.

2. Cookies

We use a single, functional cookie to remember your jargon-level preference (Simple or Standard) across page loads. This cookie:

• Contains only the value "simple" or "standard"
• Does not contain any personal identifier
• Is not shared with or accessible to any third party
• Expires after 365 days

We do not use cookies for advertising, analytics, or tracking purposes. We do not use any third-party cookie services (e.g., Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel).

3. Third-party services

We do not embed third-party tracking scripts, social media widgets, or advertising networks on this site.

Some articles may contain affiliate links to external platforms (see our Affiliate Disclosure). When you follow one of these links and visit a third-party site, that site's own privacy policy applies. We have no control over third-party data practices.

4. User accounts

SimplyCrypto.info does not offer user accounts, registration, or any login functionality. We therefore collect no account-related personal data such as email addresses, passwords, or names.

5. Children's privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site, please contact us so we can address it.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
