Privacy

The short version

This site is a catalogue and a shop. Browsing it does not create an account or a profile. It does carry Google's advertising tag, which sets cookies and is described below; nothing else about you is measured, and nothing is sold or rented to anybody.

What this site collects

A session cookie, set only if you use a part of the site that needs one, such as signing in to administer it. It identifies the session, not you.

Ordinary web server logs: the address requested, the time, the referring page, and the browser's user-agent string. These are kept to keep the service running and secure.

What happens when you buy something

Purchases of our WordPress plugins and themes are not handled here. Pressing a buy button sends you to Freemius, which is the merchant of record: it takes the payment, holds the billing details, issues the licence key and handles refunds and tax. Their privacy policy governs that transaction, and we never see your card details.

Measuring advertising

We advertise on Google, and pages here carry the Google tag so that we can tell which adverts lead to a sale. It sets cookies in your browser that let Google recognise a visit that began with one of our adverts, and when an order completes it is sent the order reference, its total, and what was in it.

Your name, your email address and your billing details are not part of that: the tag is told that a sale happened and what it was worth, which is what paying for advertising needs to know. Google's own privacy policy governs what it does with it, and a browser set to block third-party cookies, or an ad blocker, stops the tag without stopping anything else on this site working.

Who else sees anything

Our hosting provider, in the course of serving the pages; Stripe and Freemius for the payments they each handle; and Google, to the extent described above. Nobody else. Nothing is sold or rented.

Your rights

You can ask what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Given the above, the honest answer for most visitors is that we hold nothing beyond server logs.
