EffectCraftData use and visitor choices
Privacy policy
This policy describes what effectcraft.app actually processes today and what Google and other advertising providers may process on pages where advertising is enabled.
Current site status. This is a static, independent guide with no user accounts, uploads, checkout, newsletter or contact form. The site code does not currently set its own analytics or advertising cookies. Its hosting network necessarily receives technical request data. If advertising is enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies as described below.
Operator and data controller
The operator and data controller for effectcraft.app is tushenmei, an independent developer publishing the EffectCraft Independent Guide. This site is not affiliated with ArtCraft, Adobe or Google. Contact the controller at [email protected] or through the contact page.
Data, purpose, retention and recipients
The site does not ask visitors to create an account or submit personal information. Like any website, it cannot deliver a page without the visitor's browser sending a request to the hosting network.
| Data | Purpose | Retention | Shared with |
|---|---|---|---|
| Technical request data | IP address, requested URL, date and time, browser or user-agent details, referrer and security signals used to deliver, cache, protect and troubleshoot the site. | The operator does not keep a separate visitor-log database. Cloudflare controls the service logs it processes and retains them under its policies and the site's hosting configuration. | Cloudflare, the site's hosting, content-delivery and security provider. |
| Email correspondence | The sender's email address, message and any information they choose to provide, used to answer questions and handle correction, rights or privacy requests. | Kept only as long as needed to answer the request and maintain necessary records of corrections, rights matters, security or legal obligations. Messages no longer needed for those purposes are deleted. | The site operator and the sender's and operator's email providers. |
| Advertising data, only where ads are enabled | Ad delivery, frequency limiting, fraud prevention, reporting, measurement and—where allowed by the visitor's choice—personalization. | Google and participating vendors set their own retention periods. Their current documentation and the controls below apply. The operator does not receive a copy of Google's user-level advertising profile. | Google and, where configured, Google-certified advertising vendors and measurement partners. |
The site links to destinations such as GitHub and official product documentation. A text link does not itself send visitor data to the destination. When a visitor follows a link, the destination receives the normal web request and applies its own privacy policy.
Cookies and similar technologies
The site's own code does not currently create a visitor account, store preferences or set analytics or advertising cookies. Cloudflare may use strictly necessary technologies to provide network security and page delivery.
This site intends to use Google AdSense. On a page where Google advertising code is active, third-party vendors, including Google, may place or read cookies in the visitor's browser. Google and its partners may also use web beacons, pixel tags, IP addresses, browser or device information, the page URL and other identifiers to serve and measure ads, limit repeated ads, detect fraud and produce reports.
Personalized advertising and opt-out
Google may use advertising cookies to select personalized ads based on a visitor's activity on this site and other sites when applicable law and the visitor's choices permit it. Visitors can control or turn off personalized Google ads in Google Ads Settings. Turning off personalization does not necessarily remove ads; ads may still be selected from contextual information such as the page topic, general location or device type. Visitors can also block or delete cookies in their browser settings.
For more detail, read how Google uses information from sites that use its services, how Google uses cookies in advertising, and how AdSense uses cookies. Where consent is legally required, advertising storage or personalized advertising must not be activated before the visitor has been given the required choice.
Access, correction, deletion and other requests
Depending on where a visitor lives, they may have rights to ask whether the controller holds personal data about them and to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or a portable copy. They may also withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing and complain to their local data protection authority.
To exercise a right, email [email protected] with “Privacy request” in the subject and describe the request. Because the site has no user accounts and the operator does not maintain a separate visitor-log database, the operator may hold no data that can be matched to a visitor. Limited information may be requested to verify a request, but visitors should not send passwords, payment details or identity documents unless specifically necessary and requested through an appropriate secure method. Requests will be answered within the period required by applicable law.
Policy changes
This policy is effective from 12 November 2026. It will be updated when the site's actual data practices, hosting, advertising vendors or legal obligations change. The revised page will show a new “last updated” date. Material changes will be described clearly on this page before or when the new practice begins, and the permanent Privacy link will remain in the site footer.
