This privacy notice describes how Workshop Ref (“we”, “us”) treats information related to workshopref.com. We aim to keep the site simple and collect as little as practical.
Who we are
Workshop Ref is a content and tools website for workshop size references. Contact: [email protected].
Information we may process
Server and hosting logs
Our hosting provider (for example Cloudflare Pages or similar) may automatically log technical data such as IP address, browser type, request URL, and timestamps. These logs are used for security, reliability, and basic traffic operations.
Analytics
We use Umami, a privacy-friendly analytics tool, to understand which pages and tools are useful (page views and custom events such as tool results and outbound product clicks). Umami is configured to minimize personal data: it does not use advertising cookies, does not build cross-site profiles, and we do not sell personal information.
If you email us at [email protected], we receive the address and content you send so we can reply. We do not use that inbox to build marketing lists without your request.
Affiliate and product links
Links to retailers such as Amazon may include tracking parameters so we can receive a commission. Those companies process data under their own privacy policies when you leave our site. See our affiliate disclosure.
Cookies and similar technologies
The site may use essential cookies required for hosting, security, or preferences. Analytics tools, if used, may set their own cookies or local storage. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
How we use information
- Operate and secure the website
- Understand aggregate usage and improve content
- Respond to messages you send us
- Comply with legal obligations if required
Sharing
We do not sell personal information. We may share data with service providers who host the site, provide email, or run analytics, solely to operate Workshop Ref. Retailers receive data under their policies when you click outbound product links.
Retention
Logs and analytics are retained only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by our providers. Email correspondence is retained as long as needed to handle your request.
Your choices
You may request access to or deletion of personal data we hold about you (for example, an email thread) by contacting [email protected]. You can also use browser controls to block cookies.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
International visitors
The site may be hosted or accessed from different countries. By using Workshop Ref, you understand that information may be processed in the United States or other locations where our providers operate.
Changes
We may update this notice from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the bottom of this page will change when we do.
