Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 20, 2026

Foreign Vase Talk (“we,” “us,” or “the site”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our educational website and how we use it. We do not publish telephone numbers or street addresses on this site.

Information we collect

Information you provide. If you use the Contact form, we receive your name, email address, selected topic, and message content. Until you connect a server-side handler, demo deployments may process this data only in your browser.

Automatic technical data. Like most websites, our hosting provider may log IP addresses, browser type, referring URLs, and timestamps for security and performance. We do not use those logs to identify you by name unless required to investigate abuse.

How we use information

  • To respond to editorial inquiries and factual corrections
  • To maintain site security and prevent spam or automated abuse
  • To improve content based on aggregated, non-identifying traffic patterns if analytics are enabled

Third-party services

This site loads fonts from Google Fonts and may load Tailwind CSS and jQuery from public content delivery networks. Those providers may receive your IP address when assets are requested. Review their policies if you need details on international data transfers.

Cookies

The static version of Foreign Vase Talk does not set first-party marketing cookies. If you later add analytics or comment plugins, update this section to list each cookie category and provide an opt-out where required by law.

Data retention

Contact messages should be retained only as long as needed to resolve your inquiry, unless a longer period is required for legal compliance. Delete archived emails when they are no longer necessary.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal data we hold. Submit requests through our Contact page. We will verify ownership of the email address used in the request before making changes.

Children

The site is intended for general audiences interested in cultural history. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 without parental consent.

Changes

We may revise this policy to reflect new features or legal requirements. Material changes will be noted at the top of this page with an updated date.
