Data We Collect

OnStreamGuide operates on a data-minimization principle. As an informational resource, we do not require user account registration, financial transactions, or credit card submissions. We collect information only in the following scenarios:

Voluntary Correspondence

When you send a message through our contact form, we collect your submitted name, email address, inquiry topic, and message content to respond to your request. Inquiries are stored in a private administrative post repository and are retained only for the duration necessary to resolve the communication.

Server Log Information

Like standard web servers, our host automatically logs basic technical request data, including your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, requested page URL, and timestamp. These logs are used solely for server maintenance, diagnostics, and preventing DDoS attacks.

Analytics & Cookies

A cookie is a small data file stored on your computer or mobile device:

Essential Cookies

We utilize local storage and functional cookies strictly necessary to maintain user preferences, such as preserving your Dark Mode or Light Mode theme selection across visits.

Analytics Cookies

We may utilize privacy-conscious, anonymized traffic analytics to measure aggregate page visits, referral sources, and mobile vs. desktop readership. These metrics do not profile individual users.

Managing Cookies

You have the right to disable or delete cookies at any time via your browser settings. The core educational content on this website remains fully accessible with cookies disabled.

Third-Party Services & External Outbound Links

Our website may contain links to external third-party resources, such as official developer portals, emulation software websites, or open-source repositories. Please note that we do not own or control third-party websites. When you click an external link, you leave OnStreamGuide and are subject to the privacy terms and data practices of that external host.

Depending on your geographical jurisdiction (such as the General Data Protection Regulation in the European Union or the California Consumer Privacy Act), you possess specific statutory rights regarding personal data:

  • ✓

    Right to Access & Disclosure: You have the right to request disclosure of any correspondence records associated with your email address.
