Privacy Policy
This website is a read-only editorial guide. It has no accounts, no contact forms, and no newsletter — so it collects as little information as a website practically can.
Effective & last updated: August 1, 2026
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy describes how information is handled when you visit marvinnc.com (the “Site”). It applies only to this Site and not to any third-party website you reach through an outbound link.
2. What We Do Not Collect
The site has no login, no account system, no contact form, no newsletter signup, no payment processing, and no file uploads. We do not knowingly collect names, postal addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, payment card data, government identifiers, biometric data, precise geolocation, or any special category of sensitive personal data.
3. Information Collected Automatically
Like nearly all websites, the Site and its hosting and analytics providers may automatically receive limited technical information, including: IP address (which may be truncated or anonymized by the analytics provider), browser type and version, operating system and device type, screen and viewport size, referring URL and exit pages, pages viewed and time on page, approximate region derived from IP address, and error or diagnostic logs.
This information is used solely to keep the Site available and secure, diagnose errors, measure aggregate traffic, and improve content and performance. It is not used to build advertising profiles by us.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Consent
The Site uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary items — such as the record of your own cookie choice — are always active. Optional analytics (Google Analytics 4, property G-ZSCD8DM0JL) load in a consent-gated state: analytics and advertising storage remain denied until you affirmatively accept, using Google Consent Mode signals.
You may change your decision at any time: . Details are in the Cookie Policy.
Google may process analytics data as an independent controller under its own terms. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not receive money for personal information.
5. Legal Bases (EEA/UK Visitors)
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, our legal bases are: legitimate interests for security, fraud prevention, error logging, and the basic operation of the Site; and consent for optional analytics and any non-essential cookies, which you may withdraw at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
6. Retention
Server and security logs are retained only as long as needed for operational and security purposes and then deleted or aggregated. Analytics data is retained according to the analytics provider’s configured retention period. Your cookie choice is stored locally in your own browser until you clear it.
7. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port, or restrict processing of personal data; to opt out of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising (we do none of these); to withdraw consent; and to be free from discrimination for exercising these rights.
Because the Site holds no identifiable records about individual visitors, the most effective ways to exercise these rights are: selecting “Essential only” in the cookie banner, clearing cookies and local storage in your browser, enabling Global Privacy Control or Do-Not-Track signals, and installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. We honor recognized opt-out preference signals where technically feasible.
8. Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information, clear the browser’s storage for this Site; no account or record exists on our side to delete.
9. Third-Party Services and Transfers
The Site relies on third-party infrastructure for hosting, content delivery, and analytics. These providers process technical data on our behalf under their own security and privacy terms and may store or process data in the United States or other countries. Outbound links to neighborhoods, schools, municipal sites, businesses, and affiliated brands are governed by those parties’ own privacy policies, which you should review separately.
10. Security
The Site is served over HTTPS and stores no visitor database. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security or uninterrupted availability.
11. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy at any time. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the current version, and continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance.
