Privacy Policy

What we collect, why, and the choices you have. No boilerplate wall, just what actually happens on this site.

Analytics

VitalDecades uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand which pages get read. GA4 is not live on every build of this site; it only loads when a measurement ID is configured for that build. When it is live, it is consent-gated: for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, analytics storage is denied by default until the visitor consents, and ad-related storage is denied by default everywhere until a visitor opts in through a consent mechanism. Visitors elsewhere may be counted by default, in aggregate, without personally identifying information such as your name or email address.

Contact form submissions

The contact form is handled by Netlify, our hosting provider. If you submit a correction, question, or message, the name, email address, and message you provide are stored by Netlify and used only to read and respond to what you sent. We do not sell, rent, or share form submissions with third parties, and we do not add your email to a mailing list because you sent a correction or a question.

Advertising cookies

This site does not currently serve ads. When advertising goes live, it will run through Google, and third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this site and others. Google explains what its advertising partners collect and how to opt out at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. This page will be updated with more detail before ads go live, and any ad-related cookie will remain denied by default for EEA, UK, and Swiss visitors until they consent.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies through your browser's settings at any time. If a consent banner is showing on your visit, you can change your choice through that banner. You do not need an account to read anything on this site, and we do not require you to log in.
