Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what information ComputerBin (“we,” “us”) collects when you visit computerbin.com (the “Site”), and how we use it. We keep data collection to what’s actually needed to run the Site.
Information we collect
Information you provide directly
If you contact us by email or through a form on the Site (for example, to ask a question or subscribe to updates), we collect what you submit — typically your email address and the content of your message.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting and security infrastructure automatically logs standard technical data — such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and timestamps — for security, performance, and troubleshooting purposes. As of this policy’s last update, ComputerBin does not run third-party analytics or advertising trackers on the Site. If that changes in the future, we’ll update this policy to name the specific services used.
Cookies
The Site uses only the minimal cookies necessary for it to function — for example, cookies related to caching and, if you ever log in (such as site administrators), standard WordPress login session cookies. We don’t use cookies for cross-site advertising tracking.
How we use information
- To respond to messages sent through the Contact page or email
- To send updates if you’ve explicitly subscribed to a newsletter or mailing list
- To keep the Site secure, diagnose issues, and prevent abuse
- To understand, in aggregate, how the Site is used, so we can improve it
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Third-party services
The Site is hosted on third-party infrastructure and may use a content delivery network (CDN) and caching service to load pages quickly and securely. These providers may process technical request data (like IP address) as part of delivering the Site to you, under their own privacy and security practices.
Data retention
We keep contact messages and subscriber emails for as long as needed to respond to you or provide the update you signed up for, or until you ask us to delete them.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you, or to opt out of communications at any time (for example, by unsubscribing from any newsletter link). To exercise any of these rights, email hello@computerbin.com.
Children’s privacy
The Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as the Site evolves — for example, if we add analytics, advertising, or paid features in the future. We’ll update the “Last updated” date above when we do, and, for material changes, note them here.
