Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what information NoPanic Web ("we," "us," "the site") collects when you visit this website, how that information is used, and the choices available to you.
1. Who we are
NoPanic Web is an independent educational website that publishes guides about building, launching and growing websites. We are not owned by, and are not the official website of, Hostinger or any other hosting provider referenced on this site.
2. Information we collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Information you provide directly. If you use our contact form, we collect the name, email address, and message content you submit.
- Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting and analytics tools may automatically log standard technical data such as your approximate location (derived from IP address), browser type, device type, pages visited, and referring page.
- Cookies and similar technologies. We may use cookies or local storage to support analytics and to remember basic site preferences. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect some site functionality.
3. How we use analytics
We use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve our content. This site is configured to work with Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google Tag Manager (GTM). Depending on the owner's configuration, this may include a measurement ID that has not yet been activated — see [owner: confirm whether GA4/GTM is currently active on this domain].
We also track a custom event, hostinger_click, whenever a visitor clicks a link to Hostinger. This event records the page, the placement of the link on the page, the related article, and the CTA text — it does not collect personally identifying information beyond what your browser or analytics provider already processes as part of standard web analytics.
4. Referral and affiliate links
Some links on this site — including links to Hostinger — are referral/affiliate links. If you click one of these links and make a qualifying purchase, we may earn a commission. This does not increase the price you pay unless explicitly stated otherwise. Clicking a referral link will take you to a third-party website with its own privacy practices, which we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing personal information there.
5. Contact forms
If you submit our contact form, we use the information you provide solely to respond to your message. We do not sell or rent this information to third parties.
6. Data retention
We retain contact form submissions only as long as needed to respond to and resolve your inquiry, unless a longer period is required for legal or operational reasons. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings configured in our analytics provider (e.g., GA4's default or custom retention window).
7. Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data we hold about you, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. You can also opt out of Google Analytics tracking generally using tools such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
8. Children's privacy
This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
9. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information submitted through this site, but no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
