1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to the website located at maplethread.org (the "Site"). It describes what information is collected when you visit the Site, how that information is used, and the choices available to you.
2. Information Collected
Contact Form Submissions
If you submit the contact form on this Site, the form fields — name, email address, phone number (optional), and message — are collected. This Site is static and does not transmit form data to a server. The contact form operates as a front-end interaction only; submissions are not stored or forwarded.
Cookies and Local Storage
This Site uses browser localStorage to record your response to the cookie consent banner. No tracking cookies are set. No third-party analytics scripts are loaded by default. If you accept cookies via the banner, localStorage records that preference so the banner is not shown again on return visits.
Server Logs
Like most websites, the server hosting this Site may record standard access log entries, including IP address, browser user agent, and pages requested. These logs are used for server operation and security purposes only and are not used for individual tracking.
3. Use of Information
No personal data collected through this Site is sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Information from server logs may be shared with hosting infrastructure providers in the course of normal server operation.
4. Third-Party Content
This Site loads fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com) and displays images hosted on Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org). When your browser requests these resources, the respective third-party servers may log your IP address in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Links to external websites (Agriculture Canada, PPAQ, Ontario government) are provided for reference. QuietMill has no control over those sites and is not responsible for their content or data practices.
5. Data Retention
Because the contact form does not transmit data to a backend, no form submissions are retained by this Site. LocalStorage values stored in your browser persist until cleared by you or the browser.
6. Your Choices
You can clear this Site's localStorage data at any time through your browser's developer tools or settings. Clearing it will cause the cookie consent banner to appear again on your next visit.
7. Children
This Site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
8. Changes to This Policy
This policy may be updated from time to time. The date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
9. Contact
Questions about this privacy policy can be submitted through the contact form on the home page.
