Privacy Policy

When you contact Chainsmoker Cat Guide, we receive the email address, topic, and message you provide. Contact messages are delivered through Resend so the site can reply to feedback, corrections, site issues, and business inquiries.

The site also receives standard technical information needed to deliver pages securely, such as browser requests, IP address, device information, and server logs handled by hosting and security providers.

Analytics runs only after you choose to enable it. When enabled, Google Analytics and the site's first-party SaaS Dashboard tracker measure visits, page views, navigation, reading progress, engagement time, referrers, device type, browser, and operating system.

The first-party tracker uses browser storage to keep a visitor identifier and a session identifier so repeat visits and reading sessions can be measured. Analytics is used to understand which guides visitors find useful, improve navigation, and evaluate content and advertising performance. It is not used to sell personal information.

This site is currently in AdSense review mode. Google ad serving and third-party display ads are disabled while the site is being reviewed. Site ownership is verified with an AdSense account meta tag and ads.txt rather than by loading ad-serving code.

If Google ads are enabled after approval, third-party vendors, including Google, may place and read cookies in your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers to deliver, measure, and personalize advertising where permitted. Google's use of advertising cookies can enable Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and other sites.

You can manage personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings. You can also read how Google uses data when you use sites or apps that use Google services.

Before personalized Google ads are enabled in regions where consent is required, the site will use the consent controls required by Google for those regions.

You can change your analytics choice on this page. You can also block or remove cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Blocking storage may affect saved preferences.

Contact information is shared only with service providers needed to deliver the message and operate the site. Information is retained only for as long as needed to respond, maintain records, protect the site, or meet legal obligations.
