A short, plain-language privacy note.

What we do not use

ZenEmu does not currently use advertising, marketing tracking, newsletter tracking or non-essential cookies.

Anonymous visitor measurement

ZenEmu uses GoatCounter, an open-source, privacy-focused analytics service, to count visits and see whether guides are being used. It records the page viewed, the referring website, PDF downloads, and broad details such as browser type, screen size and approximate location (country or region). It does not use cookies, advertising identifiers, accounts or profiles.

To tell one visit from another, GoatCounter combines the browser information and connection address in memory for up to eight hours. It never stores your IP address or full browser information. See GoatCounter’s privacy policy for details.

Hosting

Our hosting provider may process limited technical information needed to deliver the website, such as IP address and server-request logs.

Contact form

If you use the contact form, we receive the name, email address and message you choose to provide so that we can read and reply to it. The form uses a strictly necessary session cookie to protect it from misuse. To reduce spam, the server temporarily records a hashed version of the connection address after a message is sent; it is used only to apply a 15-minute sending limit.

Please do not include private medical information, passwords or other confidential details in a contact-form message. If you choose to respond to a ZenEmu editorial listening exercise, we use the message to identify recurring questions. We do not use the contact details for a mailing list, and our editorial notes retain de-identified themes rather than personal stories.

Future changes

If we add a newsletter service or affiliate links, this page will be updated before those tools are used. We will explain what changes, why, and what choices are available to you.
