Privacy & Cookie Policy

HAI Method Desk requests consent before loading non-essential analytics and advertising technologies.

1) What we process

• Essential website operation: hosting, delivery, and security logs needed to run the site.
• Feedback loop: feedback is sanitized before triage. The site redacts common emails, phone-like strings, long IDs, and links. Do not include private data.
• Optional analytics (consent-based): Google Analytics (GA4) for aggregate usage patterns.
• Optional advertising (consent-based): Google AdSense banner delivery and measurement.

2) Cookies / local storage

We store consent preference in browser local storage. Analytics and ads are not loaded before consent.

3) Legal basis (GDPR / Swiss FADP)

Non-essential analytics and ads are processed only on consent. Essential processing relies on legitimate interest for secure website operation.

4) Data recipients

If you consent, data may be processed by Google services under their own terms/privacy policies.

5) Retention and minimization

We keep only operationally necessary data and avoid unnecessary personal data collection. Feedback is intended for issue prioritization and content maintenance, not identity tracking.

6) Monetization status

Affiliate/sponsored tool links are currently disabled. If enabled later, we will add explicit disclosure in-page.

7) Your rights

You may request access, correction, deletion, or restriction where legally applicable, and may withdraw consent at any time from the homepage.

8) Contact

Use the anonymous feedback button on the homepage. It prepares a sanitized packet for manual review and endpoint testing without asking for your name or email.
