The fine print, in plain English

Privacy policy

This site is a set of static pages. It does not have accounts, comments, a login or a newsletter form that stores your address.

Effective: 11 November 2026

What we collect

Analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is designed to be privacy-first and cookieless. It reports aggregate page views, referrers, countries, device types and core web vitals. It does not create a profile of you across sites and does not use cookies for analytics.

Server logs. Our host, Cloudflare, processes standard request data (IP address, user agent, requested URL, timestamp) to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. Retention is governed by Cloudflare's policies.

Email. If you email us, we receive your address and message. We use it to reply and keep the correspondence for as long as needed to handle the request.

Nothing else. No accounts, no comment system, no tracking pixels, no data brokers.

Cookies

LowPC Lab itself does not set cookies. Some third parties may set cookies or similar identifiers when you click an affiliate link or view an embedded item:

  • Affiliate networks and retailers. If you click an affiliate link, the retailer or network may set a cookie to attribute a purchase. Their privacy policies apply. See the affiliate disclosure for the programmes involved.
  • Advertising. If display advertising is enabled in future, the ad provider may set cookies subject to your consent where required. This page will be updated before that happens.

You can block cookies in your browser without losing access to any content on this site.

Legal bases (EEA/UK)

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, our legal basis for processing request logs is legitimate interest in operating and securing the site. For email correspondence, it is legitimate interest in answering you or the performance of a request you initiated. We do not sell personal data.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your personal data, to object to processing, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. California residents have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know and delete; we do not sell or share personal information as defined by that law.

To exercise a right, email hello@lowpclab.com. We may need to verify that a request relates to you.

Children

This site is aimed at adults and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

International transfers

The site is served by Cloudflare's global network, so request data may be processed outside your country. Cloudflare maintains appropriate transfer mechanisms for its services.

Changes

If this policy changes materially — for example, if we add advertising or a newsletter — the effective date above will change and the difference will be described here.
