Introduction
Crossbow Authority (“we,” “us” or “our”) operates crossbowauthority.com. This policy explains what information is collected when you visit, how it is used, and the choices you have about it. If anything here doesn't sit right with you, the simplest option is to stop using the site.
Information We Collect
Information you provide
If you email the site, that message and your email address are kept as part of the correspondence. No account system or comment section collects anything beyond that.
Information collected automatically
Visiting the site automatically generates some information, including:
- General geographic location (country)
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited
- Referring website or search query that brought you here
- Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
This is collected through Vercel Web Analytics, a privacy-focused service that does not set cookies and reports traffic in aggregate rather than identifying individual visitors.
How We Use Your Information
- To operate and improve the site and its content
- To understand how readers use the site and which content is most useful
- To respond to emails and enquiries
- To comply with legal obligations
Third-Party Services
The site links to Amazon and other retailers. Clicking through to them puts you under their privacy policies, not this one — this site has no control over, and no responsibility for, how third-party sites handle your data.
Site traffic is measured with Vercel Web Analytics, described in Vercel's own Privacy Policy.
Data Retention
Personal data is kept only as long as needed for the purposes described here, or as required by law. Aggregated analytics data is held by Vercel under its own retention terms. Email correspondence is kept for up to 2 years.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data held about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your personal data
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, email hello@crossbowauthority.com.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and personal information is not knowingly collected from them. If you believe a child has provided personal information here, please get in touch right away so it can be removed.
Changes to This Policy
This policy is revisited periodically, and any change updates the “Last updated” date at the top of the page. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
Contact
For privacy-related questions, email hello@crossbowauthority.com, the same address used for general enquiries. See the contact page for every other address.
