Information collected
If you contact us by email, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, name, message, and attachments. We use it only to respond, investigate a request, or maintain site records when necessary.
The site uses Google Analytics 4 to measure page views, engagement, traffic sources, device and browser categories, and approximate geographic activity. Google Analytics operates with Google Consent Mode. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, analytics storage defaults to denied until the visitor makes a choice through the Google consent message.
The site also uses a self-hosted Plausible Analytics script served from analytics.faceless-reels.io. It is configured for aggregate, cookie-free measurement of page views and engagement, referrers, browser and device categories, country-level location, outbound-link clicks, file downloads, and form submissions. Plausible does not use persistent cross-site identifiers for this site.
The site also uses Microsoft Clarity for behavioral analytics, including heatmaps and session recordings, to understand how visitors interact with pages. Clarity applies content masking to limit the capture of sensitive information. For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Clarity runs in a restricted cookieless mode without analytics cookies until the visitor grants consent through the Google consent message.
The hosting and security provider may process standard request information such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, timing, and security signals to deliver and protect the site. Cloudflare may also provide aggregate, privacy-oriented traffic measurement according to its configuration and policies.
Current cookies and advertising status
The site uses Google AdSense to request and display advertising on eligible content pages. Google and its advertising partners may place or read cookies, use web beacons, receive IP addresses or other identifiers, measure advertising, and personalize ads where legally permitted. The domain also publishes an ads.txt authorization record to identify Google as an authorized seller.
Visitors can learn how Google uses information from partner sites and manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings.
For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the site uses Google's certified consent management platform with IAB TCF support. Advertising storage, ad user data, ad personalization, and analytics storage default to denied until the visitor makes a choice. When consent is denied, personalized advertising remains disabled and Google tags operate in their restricted consent state. Google provides a privacy and cookie settings link that allows eligible visitors to revisit or withdraw their choice.
Embedded media and external links
The site embeds official FLEXUS videos using YouTube's privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com domain. Loading or interacting with an embedded player sends network and device information to YouTube and may allow YouTube to store data according to its policies. Steam, Discord, Instagram, LinkedIn, FLEXUS, and press links open services controlled by those organizations; their privacy practices apply after you follow a link.
