The short version
You can use this website without telling me who you are. It uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are useful. There are no advertising cookies or ad trackers.
If you send me a message, I only use your details to reply to you.
Who runs this website
This website is run by me, an independent developer in Australia. I publish apps under the name Cylix. I follow the Australian Privacy Principles when I handle personal information.
What the website collects
The website only collects personal information in the ways explained below. I don't sell personal information and I don't use it for advertising.
Contact form and email
When you send a message through the contact form, the website sends it to my inbox using Resend, an email delivery service. I receive your name, email address, the app and topic you picked, and your message. I use this to reply to you and to help with your question. I don't add you to a mailing list and I don't share your details with anyone else. The website doesn't store a copy of your message. Resend keeps a record of the email for a limited time under its own policies.
If you email me directly at support@cylix.dev, I handle your email the same way. Email sent to that address is handled by Apple's iCloud Mail.
App waitlists
If you join the waitlist for an app that isn't out yet, like Mast, the website sends your email address to my inbox using Resend. I use it only to email you when that app is released. After that I delete it. You can ask me to remove it sooner at any time.
Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics to understand how people use it. It shows me things like which pages are visited, how long people stay, roughly which country and city visitors are in, and what kind of device and browser they use. I only see totals and trends. I can't see who you are.
To do this, Google Analytics uses cookies and receives your IP address and some details about your browser. I don't use it for advertising, and Google's advertising features and Google signals are turned off.
If you're in the EU, the UK or Switzerland, the website doesn't set analytics cookies.
The website also uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page views without cookies and without following individual visitors between websites.
You can stop Google Analytics by blocking cookies in your browser, using a content blocker, or installing Google's opt-out browser add-on. You can read how Google uses this information in Google's partner sites policy.
Server logs
This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like most web hosts, Cloudflare automatically processes some basic information when you visit. This includes your IP address, the type of browser you use, the pages you view and the time of your visit. It's used to deliver the website and protect it from attacks. I don't use it to find out who you are.
Fonts
The fonts on this website are stored on the website itself. Your browser doesn't contact Google or anyone else to load them.
Cookies
The only cookies this website uses come from Google Analytics, as explained above. It doesn't use advertising cookies.
Where your information is stored
Cloudflare runs a global network, so your visit may be handled by servers outside Australia, including in the United States. Messages from the contact form pass through Resend, which is based in the United States, and are then stored in iCloud Mail along with email sent to support@cylix.dev. Apple may store iCloud Mail outside Australia. Google processes analytics data in other countries, including the United States.
How long it's kept
I keep messages for as long as I need them to help you. After that I delete them. Cloudflare keeps its own logs for a limited time under its own policies. Google Analytics keeps visit data for 2 months and then deletes it.
Your rights
You can ask me what personal information I hold about you. You can also ask me to correct it or delete it. Email support@cylix.dev and I'll reply within 30 days.
If you're in the EU or UK, you can also object to how your information is used. You can complain to your local data protection authority too.
Complaints
If you have a privacy concern, please contact me first. I'll look into it and reply within 30 days. If you're not happy with my answer, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
App privacy policies
Each app has its own privacy policy that explains what the app uses and why. Read the Kilometa Privacy Policy.
Children
This website isn't made for children under 13. I don't knowingly collect their information.
Changes
I may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.
