Privacy Policy
StackReview is a content site. We collect as little as we can get away with, we never sell your data, and this page explains the details in plain language.

Who we are
What we collect
- Google Analytics 4. We use Google Analytics, provided by Google, to measure page views, referring sites, approximate location, device type and browser. Google may process cookie identifiers and usage data; we use analytics reports to understand which reviews are useful.
- Newsletter email addresses. If you subscribe, we store the email address you give us so we can send you the weekly review. Nothing else is required.
- Emails you send us. If you email us we keep the message and your address so we can reply and keep a record of corrections or requests.
We do not ask for or store payment details, and we do not knowingly collect data from children.
Cookies and local storage
StackReview stores two small pieces of data in your browser's local storage, both purely functional:
- Your light/dark theme preference, so the site looks right when you return.
- Whether you've already subscribed to the newsletter, so we stop asking.
These stay on your device, are never sent to third-party advertisers, and can be cleared at any time from your browser settings. Google Analytics also sets analytics cookies such as _ga and _ga_YJ6VDPPGFH to distinguish visits and measure usage. You can block or delete cookies in your browser, or use Google's Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Learn more in Google's Privacy Policy.

We do not sell your data
How long we keep data
- Newsletter addresses: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them.
- Emails you send us: up to 24 months, then deleted.
- Analytics: Google Analytics retains event and identifier data according to the property's retention settings; aggregated reports may be kept longer.
Your rights and how to request deletion
You can ask us to confirm what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it entirely. Email hello@stackreview.online with the subject line "Privacy request" and we'll action it within 30 days, usually much sooner. Every newsletter also carries a one-click unsubscribe link.
