Scope

This policy explains how SOUUS handles visitor data, contact-form information, cookies, and third-party services on souus.com. External websites have their own privacy policies.

Information You Provide

When you contact us by email or through the contact form, you may provide a name, email address, message, and other information you choose to include. Do not submit passwords, government identification numbers, payment information, medical information, or other sensitive data.

The contact form is processed by Formspree. Form submissions are transmitted and stored under Formspree’s terms and privacy practices.

Technical Information Collected Automatically

The site and its infrastructure may process:

  • IP address, browser, and device type;
  • request time, pages visited, referrer, and approximate region;
  • performance, error, and security events;
  • cookies, advertising identifiers, or information produced by similar technologies.

Hosting, content delivery, security, analytics, and advertising providers may process this information.

Google Analytics and Google AdSense

The site uses Google Analytics to understand traffic and performance and plans to use Google AdSense to display advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies, local storage, IP addresses, device information, and advertising identifiers to deliver, measure, or personalize ads and to prevent invalid traffic and abuse.

See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. You can manage ad personalization through Google Ads Settings.

Where required by law, the site will use a consent-management tool to request the necessary choices. You may change or withdraw consent through the privacy or cookie settings displayed on the site, and you may delete or block cookies through your browser. Blocking some technologies may affect site functionality, measurement, or advertising.

Depending on the circumstances, data may be processed to:

  • respond to a contact request or take an action requested by a user;
  • use analytics, advertising, or non-essential cookies after consent;
  • maintain security, troubleshoot errors, and prevent abuse;
  • comply with applicable law or a valid legal request;
  • improve the site and its content where those interests do not override user rights.

Reading public articles does not require an account. We do not sell personal information submitted through the contact form.

Sharing and International Processing

We disclose information to service providers only as needed to operate the site, process messages, analyze traffic, display advertising, maintain security, or meet legal obligations. Providers may process data outside a user’s country under their applicable terms, contractual safeguards, and legal transfer mechanisms.

We may disclose necessary information when required by law, court order, or a valid government request. If ownership of the site changes, relevant data may transfer with the business and become subject to an updated privacy policy.

Retention and Security

Contact information is retained only as long as needed to handle a request, maintain necessary business records, or comply with law. Retention for analytics, advertising, hosting, and security logs depends on service configuration and provider policies.

We use HTTPS and reasonable administrative and technical safeguards. No Internet transmission or electronic storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on the law where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, a copy of personal data, or withdrawal of consent. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.

Send requests to [email protected] and describe the request. We may need to verify identity to prevent unauthorized access. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.

Children’s Privacy

The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information through the contact form. A parent or guardian who believes a child submitted information may contact us to request deletion.

Updates and Contact

We may update this policy when site features, providers, or legal requirements change. The latest revision date will appear on this page.
