KnownAquarium Privacy Policy and Data Practices

KnownAquarium does not require an account, subscription, payment, or personal profile. This notice explains the limited information that may be received when you visit or contact us.

What personal information is collected?

You can read the website without giving KnownAquarium your name, email address, phone number, postal address, or payment details. Search terms are used to return results for the request and are not attached to a reader account.

What appears in ordinary server logs?

Like most websites, the service may receive the requested address, time, response status, referring address when supplied by the browser, browser identification string, and IP address. These records support security, abuse prevention, fault diagnosis, and reliable delivery.

Log records are not used to create advertising profiles or sold to another company. They are retained only for as long as reasonably needed for security and service reliability.

Are cookies, analytics, or advertising used?

Your browser may keep a local copy of previously requested pages or images. Browser storage under your own control is separate from information received by KnownAquarium.

What happens when you send an email?

An email contains the address, name, message, and attachments you choose to provide. It may be retained long enough to answer the request, resolve a correction or permission question, and meet any applicable legal obligation.

Your contact details are not added to a mailing list or sold. You may request deletion after the matter is resolved, subject to any record that must lawfully be retained.

Which service providers may receive technical data?

Hosting, domain, certificate, delivery, and security providers may process an IP address and request information because those details are necessary to deliver a website securely. They receive no reader account or payment record from KnownAquarium because neither exists.

No third-party video player, advertising pixel, session recorder, heatmap, or marketing form is embedded. External citations open websites with their own privacy terms, which KnownAquarium does not control.

Does this notice cover children?

KnownAquarium is a general-audience reference and does not knowingly request personal information from children. A child should not send personal or confidential information by email without a parent or guardian.

How is information protected?

Connections use HTTPS, and access to retained messages and service records is limited to legitimate administrative needs. No online service can promise absolute security, so confidential medical, financial, identity, or account information should not be sent.

What privacy rights can you exercise?

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the use of personal information. Most readers will have no account record, but an email or recent technical record may still be relevant to a request.

Send a privacy request through the contact details and identify the information concerned. You may also contact the data-protection authority that applies where you live.

When can this notice change?

This notice may change if data practices or legal obligations change. The current version and its update date apply to your use of the website.
