Privacy Policy

How DECODISTA handles contact submissions, local preferences, optional analytics and standard hosting data.

Updated 30 September 2026

Information collected

When you use the Contact form, DECODISTA receives the name, email address, enquiry type, subject and message you provide, plus an optional DECODISTA page URL for corrections. That information is used to review and, where appropriate, respond to the enquiry.

Theme and analytics preferences are stored locally on your device. DECODISTA does not operate a newsletter signup.

Hosting and analytics

Cloudflare hosts DECODISTA, protects the Contact form and delivers submissions. Cloudflare may process standard request information, such as IP addresses and user-agent data, to deliver and protect the website.

With your permission, DECODISTA loads Google Analytics to measure page views and site interaction. Advertising storage, advertising user data, advertising personalisation, Google signals and ad-personalisation signals remain disabled in DECODISTA’s implementation.

Your choices

Analytics is off by default and its tag is not loaded unless you accept. You can decline or reopen Privacy choices in the footer. Withdrawing consent prevents future analytics collection from that browser but does not delete information already processed before withdrawal.
