🇨🇦 🇦🇺 Canada (PIPEDA) & Australia (Privacy Act 1988 / APPs)

Australia: Governed by Australian Privacy Principles (APPs 1, 3, 5, and 6) regarding solicitation, transparent collection, and strict limitation on secondary disclosures.

5. How to Request Instant Data Erasure

If you have previously submitted an inquiry through our contact form and wish to have all associated records (name, email, message history, IP records) permanently expunged from the database before the default 90-day retention window expires:

Direct Purge Protocol:

  1. Submit a new message via the Contact Form using the same email address with Subject: [DATA PURGE REQUEST].
  2. Or contact the publisher directly via the verified GitHub / Colophon channels listed below.
  3. All database records matching your email address will be permanently purged within 72 hours.

6. Client-Side State & Local Storage

We do not transmit HTTP cookies across the wire. The only piece of persistent information utilized by this website is stored directly on your personal device using standard HTML5 localStorage:

Key: themeStorage: Client Browser Only

Values: light or dark. This strictly remembers your visual theme preference so that page reloads maintain your chosen contrast mode. It is never transmitted to our servers or third parties.

7. Server Logs & Defensive Security

Like all standard internet services, reverse proxies and web application servers temporarily record network parameters (IP address, requested URI, HTTP status code, referrer, and user agent).

These logs are maintained exclusively for legitimate cybersecurity purposes: detecting malicious denial-of-service (DDoS) floods, rate-limiting scrapers, and verifying system uptime. They are never paired with personal identities and are rotated and purged automatically.

8. Grievance Officer & Statutory Contact
