Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

techstack.sh is designed to be privacy-friendly. We do not require user accounts, do not collect payment information, and do not ask for personally identifiable information to use the Site.

The information we may collect falls into the following categories:

a) Automatically Collected Information

When you visit the Site, our hosting provider may automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit. This information is collected through standard server logs and is used solely to ensure the security, stability, and availability of the Site.

b) Analytics Data (Opt-In Only)

Analytics data is collected only if you explicitly consent by clicking "Accept analytics" when prompted. If you consent, we may collect aggregate usage data such as page views, feature interactions, approximate geographic region, and device type. This data is used solely to understand how the Site is used and to improve it.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by clicking "Privacy settings" in the site footer.

c) Local Storage

The Site uses your browser's localStorage to save certain preferences, including your theme selection (light/dark) and analytics consent choice. This data is stored entirely on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

Analytics data, if you have consented to its collection, is retained in aggregate form for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. If you contact us via email, we retain your correspondence only as long as necessary to respond to your request and for record-keeping purposes.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
