Privacy Policy
Effective date:
This is a static information site, but it uses two Google services — Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google AdSense — on every page. These set cookies and process data about your visit. We do not run our own accounts, forms, or database.
Information We Collect Directly
We do not operate an account system, contact forms, or a database. We do not ask you to submit names, email addresses, travel plans, payment information, or viewing preferences on the site itself.
Cookies and Analytics (Google Analytics 4)
Every page loads Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-3V9EBD3GN8) via Google's gtag.js. GA4 sets cookies and collects data such as your approximate (IP-derived, anonymized) location, device and browser type, referring page, and the pages you view, so we can understand aggregate traffic. GA4 anonymizes IP addresses by default. Data is processed by Google, including on servers in the United States. See Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites that use its services. You can opt out with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
Every page loads Google AdSense (publisher ID ca-pub-5346411273453850). Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads and, where permitted, to personalize them based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can review and control ad personalization at Google My Ad Center and learn more at How Google uses cookies in advertising. Visitors in the EU/UK may be shown a consent message before personalized ads are served.
Your Choices
On your first visit a banner lets you accept or reject non-essential (analytics and advertising) cookies, and your choice is remembered on this device. Visitors in the EU and UK have these cookies switched off by default until they accept. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, use the GA4 opt-out add-on above, and manage ad personalization via Google My Ad Center. None of this affects access to the site's content.
Server Logs
The hosting provider may keep ordinary server logs for security, abuse prevention, diagnostics, caching, and uptime monitoring. Those logs can include IP address, browser type, requested URL, referrer, timestamp, and response status. Eclipse 2028 does not use those logs to build individual profiles or sell visitor data.
External Links
Some pages link to NASA, Timeanddate, EclipseWise, safety resources, and other third-party sites. Those sites have their own privacy practices. Opening an external source may expose your browser to that site's logs, cookies, or analytics, so review their policies if that matters to your use.
Contact
If you contact the project by email, the information you choose to send is used to answer the message, evaluate corrections, or coordinate legitimate project work. Do not email sensitive personal information. Questions about this policy can be sent through the contact page.
