Privacy

Last updated: November 14, 2026

Embermill is a small software workshop. This page explains, in plain language, what happens to the information you give us on embermill.com. Our apps, such as Fracly, are separate sites with their own practices.

What we collect

This website has one place where you can give us information: the contact form. If you use it, we receive:

• your name, email address and message;
• the topic you picked from the "About" list;
• your IP address, which we use only to limit abuse (see below).

We also use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used (see "Analytics and cookies" below). We don't run advertising on this site.

How we use it

We use your name, email and message to read and reply to you. We don't add you to a mailing list, and we don't sell or share your details for marketing.

Spam and abuse protection

• Cloudflare Turnstile checks that a person, not a bot, is sending the form. Turnstile may process information about your browser and connection. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
• Rate limiting counts recent submissions per IP address so one source can't flood the form. These counters are kept for up to 24 hours and then deleted. They are not linked to your message.

Analytics and cookies

We use Google Analytics (a service of Google) to see, in aggregate, how people find and use this site: which pages are viewed, roughly where visitors come from, and what kind of device and browser they use. This helps us decide what to improve.

• Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser (such as _ga) and receives information about your visit, including your approximate location and device details. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store full IP addresses.
• We use this data in aggregate. We don't use it to identify you, and we don't connect it to messages sent through the contact form.
• Google processes this data under its own privacy policy, and may process it outside your country.
• You can opt out with Google's browser add-on, by blocking or deleting cookies in your browser settings, or by using a browser or extension that blocks analytics. The site works the same either way.

Apart from Google Analytics, we don't set cookies of our own. Cloudflare Turnstile may use limited browser storage to tell people from bots; see Cloudflare's policy linked above.

Who handles your message

• Cloudflare hosts this website and runs the form's server code.
• Brevo delivers the form's email to our inbox. See Brevo's privacy policy.

We don't store form submissions in a database. They exist as an email in our inbox and in the delivery logs of the services above.

How long we keep it

We keep correspondence only as long as it's useful for answering you and keeping a record of the conversation. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Your choices

You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you. Email info@embermill.com and we'll take care of it.

Changes

If this page changes in a meaningful way, we'll update the date at the top.
