This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit Rissian.com (the "site"), how it is used, and the choices you have. Rissian.com is an independent, informational website. We do not sell products, we do not require accounts, and we do not ask you to submit personal information in order to read the site.
Information We Collect
We do not collect your name, email address, or other directly identifying information unless you choose to email us. When you visit the site, some information is collected automatically by our hosting provider and by the third-party services described below, including:
- your IP address (which may be shortened or anonymized by the provider);
- browser type, device type, operating system, and screen size;
- the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the page that referred you;
- approximate location derived from your IP address (country or city level).
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Rissian.com itself does not set cookies for its own purposes, but the third-party services below may set cookies or use similar technologies (such as local storage or device identifiers) to measure traffic and to serve and measure advertising.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages are read most — so we can improve our content. Google Analytics collects usage data through cookies. You can learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services, and you can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Google AdSense (Advertising)
Rissian.com is supported by advertising served by Google AdSense. In connection with this:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you will be asked for consent before personalized ads or non-essential cookies are used, through a consent message managed by Google. You can change your choices at any time through that message or your browser settings. If you do not consent, you may still see non-personalized ads.
How We Use Information
- to operate, secure, and maintain the site;
- to understand which content is useful and improve it;
- to display advertising that funds the site;
- to reply to you if you email us.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it to make automated decisions about you.
If You Email Us
If you write to [email protected], we receive your email address and the content of your message. We use it only to respond to you and delete correspondence we no longer need.
Your Choices and Rights
You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, use private browsing, or install content blockers. Depending on where you live (for example under the EU/UK GDPR or California privacy laws), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of personal data about you, and to object to its processing. Because we do not hold account data, most data relating to your visit is held by the third-party providers named above; you can exercise your rights directly with them, or contact us and we will help where we can.
Children
The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
