Privacy policy
Written to be read, not to be scrolled past.
What we collect
This site does not ask you to create an account, does not run a newsletter, and does not host a comment system. We do not collect names, email addresses, or payment information, because there is nowhere on this site to enter them.
Server logs
Like nearly every website, our hosting provider records standard access logs: IP address, browser type, referring page, and the time of the request. These are generated automatically by the server, used to diagnose technical problems and detect abuse, and are not combined with anything else to identify you personally.
Content delivery and security
Traffic to this site passes through Cloudflare, which provides DNS, caching and protection against attacks. Cloudflare processes request data on our behalf as part of delivering the site. Their handling of that data is governed by their own privacy policy.
Affiliate links
Some outbound links on this site are affiliate links. When you click one, the destination retailer may set a cookie in your browser to record that the visit came from us, so that any resulting commission is attributed correctly.
That cookie is set by the retailer, not by us. We receive only aggregate reporting — how many clicks and sales occurred — and never see who you are or what else you bought. Details of the arrangement are on our affiliate disclosure page.
Cookies we set
None. This site sets no first-party tracking or advertising cookies.
Third parties
Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google's servers when a page loads. That request includes your IP address and is subject to Google's privacy policy.
Your rights
Depending on where you live — notably under the GDPR in Europe, the UK GDPR, and the CCPA in California — you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data held about you.
In practice we hold very little: we have no user database. If you believe we hold data about you and want it removed, contact us and we will act on it.
Children
This site is intended for adults purchasing workshop equipment. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.
Changes
If this policy changes materially — for instance if we add analytics or a newsletter — the change will be reflected here and the date below updated before the new processing begins.
