Privacy Policy

1. Overview

BrightShoreHouse.org ("this site", "we") is a static informational website. This Privacy Policy describes what information, if any, is collected when you visit this site, and how it is used.

This site does not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.

2. Information collected automatically

Like most websites, the server hosting this site may log standard request data including:

• IP address (typically truncated or anonymised at the server level)
• Browser type and version
• Referring URL
• Pages visited and timestamps

This log data is used for diagnosing technical issues and understanding aggregate traffic patterns. It is not linked to individual identities.

3. Cookies and local storage

This site stores a single item in your browser's localStorage to record your cookie consent preference (accepted or rejected). This is a functional item that prevents the consent banner from reappearing on subsequent visits.

No advertising, tracking, or analytics cookies are set by this site. Third-party scripts embedded from external services (such as Google Fonts) may set their own cookies subject to those providers' privacy policies.

4. Contact form

If you use the contact form on this site, the information you enter (name, email address, phone number, message) is processed client-side only. No form data is transmitted to a server or stored. The form provides a local simulation of submission for user experience purposes only.

5. External links

This site contains links to external websites including federal government portals and conservation authority sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those external sites. Visitors are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any external sites they visit.

6. Third-party content

Images used on this site are hosted on Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org) and loaded directly from that server. When your browser loads these images, a request is made to Wikimedia's servers, subject to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy.

Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. Google's privacy policy applies to those requests.

7. Children's privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13 years of age and does not knowingly collect information from children.

8. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated periodically. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
