Void Syntax ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our site, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this site you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
We collect two kinds of information:
- Information you give us — for example your email address if you subscribe to our newsletter, or any details you include in a contact form.
- Information collected automatically — your browser type, device type, approximate location (from IP address), referring URL, pages you visit, and the time you spend on the site. This is collected via standard server logs and analytics tools.
How we use your information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the site.
- To send you the newsletter you subscribed to (you can unsubscribe at any time).
- To understand which content readers find useful so we can write more of it.
- To respond to questions or feedback you send us.
- To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or technical issues.
We do not sell your personal information.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) to remember your preferences (for example, dark mode), keep you signed in to features that require it, and measure how the site is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect some features of the site.
Third-party services
We use third-party services to help run this site, which may process information on our behalf:
- Analytics providers — to measure traffic and content performance in aggregate.
- Hosting and CDN providers — to deliver pages quickly and reliably.
- Email providers — to send newsletters and respond to messages.
- Embedded content — articles may include embeds from third parties (video, social posts, etc.) that may set their own cookies.
Each provider operates under its own privacy policy.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Correct or delete that information.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Withdraw consent you previously gave (for example, by unsubscribing from the newsletter).
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We'll respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Data retention
We keep your information only as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with information, contact us and we'll delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted in a notice on the site or by email.
