This policy explains what data byantonkolev.com collects, why, and how it’s handled.
What I collect
Email address – When you subscribe through any form on this site, I collect your email. That’s it. No name required, no phone number, no billing info.
Analytics data – Google Analytics 4 (GA4) collects anonymous usage data: pages visited, time on site, device type, general location (country/city level). This uses cookies. No personally identifiable information is tied to this data.
Server logs – Your IP address and browser info are recorded in standard server logs by the hosting provider. This is automatic and standard for every website.
How I use it
- Email: To send you poker and mental performance content. That’s the deal. No selling your email to third parties. No spam. You can unsubscribe anytime – every email has an unsubscribe link.
- Analytics: To understand which content is useful and which isn’t. Helps me write better stuff.
- Server logs: Security and uptime monitoring. I don’t look at these unless something breaks.
Cookies
This site uses cookies for:
- Google Analytics – traffic measurement (anonymous)
- WordPress – session handling if you leave a comment
You can disable cookies in your browser settings. The site works fine without them – you just won’t show up in my analytics.
Third-party services
- Google Analytics 4 (analytics) – Google’s privacy policy
- WordPress / WPForms (email collection) – data stored on the site’s hosting server
- Yoast SEO (site optimization plugin) – no user data collected
Your rights
You can ask me to:
- Show you what data I have on you
- Delete your data
- Unsubscribe from emails
Email contacts@byantonkolev.com for any of these. I’ll handle it within a few days.
Data retention
Email addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Analytics data follows Google’s default retention settings (14 months). Server logs are rotated by the hosting provider.
Changes
If this policy changes, the updated version goes here with a new date. No buried changes.
