Let’s be real: privacy policies are usually a snooze-fest. We want to break that trend. At Geekshub.net, we value your trust, and that starts with being crystal clear about what we know about you and why. Think of this as a straight-talking guide to our data practices.
So, what do we collect? It’s a fair question.
When you stroll through our website, we notice some details. If you register for our newsletter or leave a comment, we will require your email address. Other than that, similar to most sites, we collect some data without identifying the user. It includes your IP address, the type of browser you used, and the articles that attracted you the most. This allows us to evaluate our strengths and weaknesses.
We also use small files known as cookies which enable us to keep track of your preferences and see how the site is used by different users.
If you want, you can configure your browser to reject cookies, but be aware that certain sections of the website may not function correctly or may be a little ‘moody’.
How We Use This Info (The Plain English Version)
We’re not in the business of selling your data. Instead, we use it to:
- Make the website better and faster for you.
- Figure out if people are actually reading our tutorials (so we can write more of the good stuff!).
- Send you a newsletter you’ll actually want to open.
- Let you chat in the comments and be part of our community.
- Basically, to keep the lights on and make Geekshub a cool place to hang out.
The Third-Party Stuff
We get by with a little help from our friends. We use tools like Google Analytics to understand our traffic, and we serve ads through networks like Google AdSense to help pay the bills. These companies have their own rules about data, so you might want to check out their privacy policies too.
Your Data, Your Rules
You’re in the driver’s seat. You can always:
- Ask us what we’ve got on you.
- Tell us to update it or delete it.
- Hit the ‘unsubscribe’ link in any email—no hard feelings!
- Change your browser settings to manage cookies.
A Quick Note on GDPR & CCPA
If you’re in Europe or California, you have specific rights under GDPR and CCPA. We respect that. We’re committed to honoring those rights, so if you want to know what data we have or ask us to delete it, just get in touch. We’ve got you covered.
We may update this policy periodically as we grow, so it’s a good idea to check back periodically. If you have any questions at all, we’re all ears at (mail id).
