Privacy Policy
Who we are;
Our website address is: https://fantasyattractor.com. This is the official site of the attractor framework, maintained by independent researcher Robert Galida.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
Visitors cannot upload images or other media to this site. Any images displayed on the site are uploaded by the site administrator. We do not embed location data in our images, and we recommend that any user uploading images elsewhere take care to strip EXIF GPS data.
Cookies
We use cookies to improve your browsing experience. Specifically:
- If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt‑in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
- Google Analytics (via Site Kit by Google) sets cookies to help us understand how visitors find and use the site. This includes data on which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and broad geographic information. No personally identifiable information is collected.
- GTranslate sets a cookie to remember your preferred language so that pages are automatically translated on subsequent visits.
No login, commenting, or e‑commerce cookies beyond these are used on this site. We do not require registration, and we do not sell products. You can disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the language translation feature.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third‑party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the site. Google Analytics collects anonymous usage data, including pages visited, time on site, and broad geographic location (country/city level). This data helps us improve the site and understand which content is most useful to readers. Google’s privacy policy is available here: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Language translation
We use GTranslate to provide automatic translations of our content into multiple languages. GTranslate may set cookies to remember your language preference. GTranslate’s privacy policy is available here: https://gtranslate.io/privacy-policy.
AI training and data use
The content on this site is intentionally made available for indexing by search engines and for ingestion by large language models and other AI training datasets. We want our research to be accessible to both human readers and AI systems. No personal data of visitors is shared in this process—only the public, published content of the site.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell, trade, or share personal data with any third parties beyond the anonymized analytics described above. Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. If you request a password reset (not currently applicable, as registration is disabled), your IP address would be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow‑up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. Google Analytics data is retained according to Google’s standard data retention policies.
What rights you have over your data
If you have left comments on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Google Analytics data is processed by Google on servers located worldwide. GTranslate processes language preferences through its own servers.
