Privacy Policy

About This Template

You may notice that this page looks a bit different from the others — there's no hero banner at the top. That's intentional! For special legal pages like privacy policies and terms of service, it's common practice to keep the design minimal and distraction-free. The Gyroscope template gives you the flexibility to turn the hero banner on or off for any page.

This privacy page also serves as an example of a static page — content that's written directly in the template without pulling from a database. Compare this to the Travel and Technology pages, which demonstrate retrieving and displaying database records with caching and pagination.

By the way, the entrance to the /app section isn't advertised in the main navigation, but it's always there for those who know where to look. Consider it the VIP backstage pass of this template.

The Actual Privacy Stuff

Here's a fun fact: if you're just browsing this site, we use zero cookies. None. Zilch. Not even analytics cookies — we have our own non-cookie analytics solutions, but that's a story for another day. Your browser arrives clean and leaves clean.

"But wait," you say, "I thought all websites need cookies!" Ah, a common misconception! Let's clear that up. Cookies have gotten a bad rap because of tracking cookies — those sneaky little spies that follow you around the internet, reporting your every click to advertising overlords. Those are the villains of the cookie world.

But not all cookies are created equal. Authentication cookies are the good guys. They simply remember that you've logged in, so you don't have to re-enter your password on every page. They don't track you. They don't sell your data. They just sit there, doing their one job, like a loyal digital bouncer checking your VIP pass.

So when do we use cookies? Only if you're an admin signing into the /app backend. In that case, yes, we'll set a few authentication cookies to keep you logged in. These are essential, privacy-respecting, and frankly quite boring. They expire. They don't phone home. They just work.

If you have any privacy concerns, feel free to send us an email. We promise to read it, nod thoughtfully, and then forget to reply for three weeks. Just like every other company, except we're honest about it.

In summary: No tracking. No analytics cookies. Authentication cookies only when you log in. Your data stays yours. Enjoy the template.
