Gimmie Sick Vis (“we”, “us”, “the site”) is run by Maya, based in Victoria, Australia. This policy explains what data gimmiesickvis.com collects, how it’s used, and your options.

What we collect

Information you give us directly

• Contact and Feedback form submissions: your name, email address, and message content
• Anything you choose to include in those messages

Information collected automatically

• Standard technical data: IP address, approximate location (derived from IP), browser and device type, pages visited, and referring site
• Collected via our hosting provider (Vercel) and, where enabled, analytics tools

Cookies

• Essential cookies required for the site to function
• If ads are shown on this site, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your visits here and to other sites. You can opt out of personalised ads via Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.

What we don’t collect

• We don’t currently have user accounts or logins, so we hold no passwords or account data
• We don’t store payment details. Purchases through the Store are processed directly by our payment/print-on-demand provider, who has its own privacy policy

Third-party services we use

• Vercel — hosting
• Resend — delivering emails from the contact and feedback forms
• Google AdSense (once enabled) — displaying ads, using cookies as described above
• Anthropic (Claude API) — powers the site’s AI conditions summary; the data sent is ocean/weather data, not personal information
• Copernicus/Sentinel-2, NASA, IMOS and other public data providers — supply the environmental data shown on the site; this is publicly available data, not personal information

How we use your data

• To respond to contact and feedback messages
• To understand site usage and improve it
• To serve relevant ads once AdSense is live
• We do not sell your personal information to anyone

Your rights

We handle personal information consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles where they apply to us. You can ask what data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us at mayatrcek@gmail.com.

Children

This site isn’t directed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a new “last updated” date.
