Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-08-27
Introduction
This policy explains what velalanterns.org collects when you visit, why it is collected, and what happens to it.
Information We Collect
The site collects no account data, because it has no accounts. There is no login, no order form, and no payment processing here.
Server logs record standard request data: IP address, browser user agent, referring page, and timestamp. Analytics records page views and traffic sources in aggregate.
If you type an address into the contact or newsletter form, note that neither form is connected to a mail service; both return an error and no data is transmitted or stored.
Cookies
A cookie or a local-storage entry records whether you dismissed the cookie notice, so it does not reappear on every page.
Analytics cookies count visits and measure which pages get read. Retail links may set their own cookie on the retailer's domain to attribute a referral.
Browser settings can block or clear cookies. Blocking them leaves the site fully readable.
Affiliate and Analytics Partners
Outbound retail links carry an affiliate tag so a referral can be attributed. The retailer, not this site, handles anything you do after the click, including payment and shipping data.
Analytics is provided by a third party under its own privacy terms.
Third-Party Links
Links leaving this site are governed by the destination's privacy policy. Read it there.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS. Because no personal data is collected or stored here, there is no customer database to breach.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them.
Your Choices
Clear cookies in your browser to reset analytics and the cookie notice. Use a do-not-track setting or an ad blocker if you prefer not to be counted.
Changes to This Policy
Revisions are posted on this page with a new date at the top. Continued use after a revision means you accept it.
