Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information DeskRig collects, why, and the choices you have. The short version: we collect as little as a content site possibly can — no accounts, no logins, no sale of data, ever.

Information we don't collect

• No account registration — the site has no logins.
• No request for names, addresses or payment details.
• No advertising-profile building of our own.
• We never sell or rent personal data. There is nothing to sell.

Information we (and our services) do process

• Email you send us voluntarily (contact form or direct email): used solely to reply to you, then not retained beyond a reasonable correspondence window. The contact form is currently a static demo — until you connect an email service, it stores nothing.
• Newsletter signups: if you subscribe, our email provider stores your address and sends the emails you asked for. Every email includes an unsubscribe link; unsubscribing removes you from the list.
• Affiliate cookies: our outbound shopping links belong to retailers' affiliate programs (primarily Amazon Associates). When you click one, their cookie or tracking parameter may be set by the retailer per their own policies. We never see what you buy — the program reports aggregate commission data only.
• Analytics: if/when enabled, we use privacy-respecting aggregate analytics (page views, referrers, no cross-site profiling, no personalized ad targeting from our side).
• Advertising: ad-network units may appear in marked ad slots once approved. Those networks may set their own cookies per their policies; you can opt out of personalized ads through your browser and your OS privacy settings.

Cookies, in plain English

DeskRig's own pages set no tracking cookies. You may encounter cookies from: (a) affiliate retailers after clicking an outbound link, (b) an ad network, if and when ads are enabled, (c) an email-provider embedded form, if and when the signup form is made live. You can block or clear any of these in your browser without losing access to the content.

Your choices and rights

• Unsubscribe: use the link in any email, or write to us.
• Access / deletion: ask us what we hold about your email address and we'll tell you, or delete it. We respond to all reasonable data requests.
• Do Not Track: we don't track you beyond the aggregate analytics described above, so there's nothing to honor beyond that scope.
• EU/UK/other regions: legal bases are consent (newsletter) and legitimate interest (replying to mail, aggregate analytics). You may withdraw consent at any time.

Children

DeskRig is written for adults building their own setups. We don't knowingly collect data from children under 13 (or under 16 where local law requires). If you believe a child has contacted us, tell us and we'll delete it.

Changes to this policy

If we add analytics, ads or a live email service, we'll update this page and its date. Material changes (new data collection types) get a mention on the homepage for 30 days.
