Privacy

Last updated: July 2026.

The short version

Breachfolio does not require an account. We do not run user tracking pixels. We do not sell or share data. The only data we collect is what is technically necessary to serve the site and, where applicable, what third-party services we use collect on our behalf.

Data we collect directly

  • Server access logs. When you load a page, our hosting provider logs the request (IP address, timestamp, URL, user agent). These logs are kept for up to 30 days and used only to diagnose problems and detect abuse.
  • Newsletter subscription, if you opt in. If a newsletter form is available and you submit your email, we store your email address with our email provider for the sole purpose of sending the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time with the link in every email.

Data third-parties collect on our behalf

  • Fonts. We load fonts from Google Fonts. Google may receive your IP address and user agent as part of that request.
  • Advertising. Breachfolio serves display ads through Google AdSense. AdSense may set cookies and collect interaction data to select and measure ads. Ad-related cookies are only set if you accept them in the cookie banner shown on your first visit; choosing "Necessary only" limits ad personalization in line with Google's consent settings.
  • Analytics. We use Google Analytics to see how many people visit and which pages are useful, so we know what to write more of. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept them in the cookie banner ("Accept all"); choosing "Necessary only" keeps analytics disabled for that visit. You can change your choice at any time – see the Cookies page.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell or rent your data.
  • We do not run tracking pixels in emails.
  • We do not require account creation to read any article.

Your rights

Under GDPR, UK GDPR, and similar laws, you have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, and to object to processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us via the Contact page.

Children

Breachfolio is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
