Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 29, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, stored, and shared when you visit or interact with d1vye (the “Website”).

d1vye is a personal website containing articles, writing, programming-related material, and other content. The Website uses third-party services, including Google Analytics and Google AdSense, which may process information about visitors and their use of the Website.

This Privacy Policy is provided for transparency. Where applicable law requires consent before cookies, local storage, or particular forms of personal-data processing are used, consent will be requested through the relevant consent mechanism rather than being inferred from this Privacy Policy alone.

1. Website Operator

The website is operated under the name d1vye.

2. Information Collected

The Website may receive certain information automatically when you visit it. This can include information such as:

  • IP address and general network information;
  • browser type, operating system, language, and device information;
  • pages or content viewed and interactions with the Website;
  • referring or exit pages and approximate geographic information;
  • information contained in cookies, local storage, or similar technologies; and
  • other technical or usage information made available to the third-party services described below.

The Website does not intentionally request sensitive personal information merely as a condition of browsing the site. Information voluntarily provided through any future feature that requests personal information will be handled according to the notice provided at the time of collection.

3. Google Analytics

The Website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, to understand how visitors use the Website, measure traffic, identify technical or usability issues, and improve its content and functionality.

Google Analytics may collect information such as device and browser details, pages viewed, approximate location, interaction information, and identifiers associated with cookies or similar technologies.

The information generated by Google Analytics is processed by Google in accordance with Google's policies and the settings configured for the Website's analytics implementation.

More information about Google's privacy practices is available in Google's Privacy Policy: Google Privacy Policy .

4. Google AdSense and Advertising

The Website uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and third-party advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device information, and other identifiers or technologies to serve, measure, personalise, and improve advertising, subject to applicable settings, consent requirements, and law.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve advertisements based on a user's prior visits to this Website or other websites. Google's advertising cookies may enable Google and its partners to serve advertisements based on a user's visits to this Website and/or other websites on the Internet.

The specific advertising technology providers that may process information can depend on the AdSense settings and advertising configuration used for the Website. Where a consent-management message is presented, it may identify the relevant advertising technology providers and provide controls for applicable purposes.

You can learn more about how Google uses information when advertising on partner websites here: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services .

You may also manage certain Google advertising preferences through Google's Ads Settings: Google Ads Settings .

Depending on your browser, region, and available advertising controls, you may also be able to manage certain third-party interest-based advertising preferences through industry opt-out tools such as: YourAdChoices / AboutAds .

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your device. The Website and its third-party service providers may use cookies, local storage, web beacons, pixels, or similar technologies for purposes including:

  • website functionality and preferences;
  • analytics and traffic measurement;
  • advertising delivery and measurement;
  • advertising personalisation, where permitted; and
  • security, fraud prevention, and technical reliability.

You can generally control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect the operation of parts of the Website or the advertising experience.

6. Personalised and Non-Personalised Advertising

Depending on your location, consent choices, applicable law, and the advertising settings used by the Website, Google may serve personalised ads, non-personalised ads, or other supported forms of ad serving.

Where consent is legally required for personalised advertising or the use of cookies and similar technologies, advertising preferences will be handled through the applicable consent mechanism.

7. European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland

Visitors in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland may be presented with a consent interface before certain cookies, local storage, or personal-data processing for advertising purposes are used, where required.

Google requires publishers serving personalised ads to users in these regions to use a Google-certified consent management platform (CMP) integrated with the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework. The Website's implementation of this requirement may therefore vary according to the advertising and consent settings enabled for the Website.

8. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Website may contain links to external websites, services, repositories, or other third-party resources. This Privacy Policy applies only to d1vye and does not govern the privacy practices of external websites.

You should review the privacy policies and terms of any third-party service you choose to access.

9. Data Sharing and Disclosure

Information may be processed or shared with third-party service providers where necessary for analytics, advertising, security, website operation, or other purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

In particular, Google may process information in connection with Google Analytics and Google AdSense. Such processing is governed in part by Google's own policies and contractual arrangements with its partners.

Information may also be disclosed where required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or to protect the rights, security, and integrity of the Website and its users.

10. International Processing

Third-party providers used by the Website may process information on servers or in locations outside your country or region. Such processing is subject to the providers' applicable privacy policies, contractual safeguards, and legal requirements.

11. Data Retention

The Website does not maintain a separate general-purpose database of visitor browsing activity. Data handled by third-party services such as Google Analytics and Google AdSense may be retained according to the configuration of those services, their respective policies, and applicable legal requirements.

12. Children's Privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not knowingly directed at children under the age of 13. The Website does not knowingly use information from users known by the Website operator to be under 13 for personalised advertising.

13. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, applicable privacy law may give you rights relating to your personal information. These may include rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction of certain processing, or to object to or withdraw consent for particular processing activities, subject to legal exceptions.

You can also control certain cookies through your browser and manage available Google advertising preferences through the tools linked in this Privacy Policy.

14. Security

Reasonable measures are used to maintain the security and integrity of the Website. However, no website or method of transmitting information over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the Website, the third-party services it uses, applicable privacy requirements, or the way information is processed.

When material changes are made, the updated version will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
