Information handled

When you browse, hosting and CDN systems may process technical information such as IP address, request time, device/browser details and error logs. We use this to deliver and secure the site. We do not require an account to read articles.

Advertising and services

Google AdSense advertising is enabled on production pages. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, measure or personalize advertising according to its own policies and the choices available in your region. Cloudflare hosting, CDN and security may also process requests. Analytics, affiliate tracking, consent tools, cookies or local storage beyond necessary operation will only apply when enabled in the site configuration and deployed. We do not claim that Google Analytics, Amazon Associates or a CMP is active.

Printable pattern access

When you request a printable pattern, HookElla may set a first-party functional hk_reader cookie. It contains no email address and helps recognize that your browser has already requested a pattern so we do not repeatedly ask for your email. It has an approximate 180-day lifetime and is not used for advertising or tracking.

Contact communications

If you email us, we use the message and contact details to respond and keep a reasonable business record. Do not send sensitive information.

Choices and updates

Where optional technologies are introduced, HookElla will provide appropriate notice and choices. This policy will be reviewed when providers change. Contact us to ask about personal-data requests.
