Privacy Policy
Last updated November 5, 2026What this blog collects, why, and how to have your data removed.
The short version
I collect as little as possible. If you subscribe, I keep your email address. The site uses Google Analytics to understand which posts people read. I do not sell your data, and I do not show ads.
Pixel Hunter is a personal blog by Felix M. about design, leadership and craft. This page explains what information the site collects, why, and what you can do about it.
If you subscribe
When you use a subscribe form, the site stores:
- your email address;
- where you signed up (the footer, the home page or the end of a post);
- the date and time you signed up.
I use this list only to let you know about new posts. Right now no emails are sent automatically. If I start sending a newsletter through an email service, I will update this page and name the service.
Your email address stays on the list until you ask me to remove it.
Analytics and cookies
The site uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser and collects information such as the pages you view, how you arrived, your approximate location, and your device and browser type. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy.
You can block these cookies in your browser settings, or install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. The blog works fine without them.
One more cookie, auth-token, is only set when the site owner logs in to the admin area. Readers never receive it.
Services that help run the site
A few services handle data so the site can work:
- MongoDB stores the posts and the subscriber list.
- Cloudinary hosts and delivers the images.
- The hosting provider serves the site and may keep standard server logs, such as IP addresses and request times, for security and reliability.
- Google Analytics provides the visit statistics described above.
I do not share your information with anyone else unless the law requires it.
Links to other sites
Posts and the Resources page link to other websites and tools. Once you leave Pixel Hunter, their own privacy policies apply. I do not control what they collect.
Your choices and rights
You can ask me to:
- tell you whether your email address is on the subscriber list;
- remove your email address from the list;
- correct it if it is wrong.
Depending on where you live, privacy laws such as the GDPR may give you further rights, including the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
Children
This blog is written for adults and is not aimed at children under 16. I do not knowingly collect their information.
Changes to this policy
If anything here changes, I will update this page and the date at the top.
