Privacy

Rixate does not use cookies on its public pages and has no advertising trackers. Your language choice and the dismissal of the language bar are kept only in your own browser (localStorage) and are never sent to us.

Visitor statistics

We count visits with a self-hosted, cookieless statistics tool (Umami). It honours the browser's Do Not Track setting and builds no personal profiles. The data stays on our own server.

Server logs

Our web server keeps technical logs (such as IP address, requested page and time) for a short period for security and to fix errors.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to the weekly newsletter (“The weekly patch list”) we store your email address, the language of the page you subscribed on, the status of your subscription (waiting for confirmation, confirmed or unsubscribed) and the time you subscribed, confirmed and unsubscribed. We use this only to send you that newsletter. We do not track opens or clicks.

We send the emails through Resend, a US-based email provider, which receives your address and the message for delivery. Every email contains an unsubscribe link, and you can unsubscribe at any time. After you unsubscribe your address is deleted within 30 days. Addresses that are never confirmed are deleted after 7 days.

To stop abuse of the subscribe form we keep a keyed hash of your IP address for at most one hour. The IP address itself is not stored with your subscription.

Error reports

If you report an error through the “Report an error” form, we keep your message, the article it is about, the time and, only if you give it, your email address so we can reply. To prevent abuse we keep a keyed hash of your IP address for at most an hour; it is also kept with the report until we have handled it. A correction appears on the Corrections page without your details.
