Effective Date: 2025-10-20
Little Bonsai respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. This policy describes how we handle the minimal information that is collected when you visit our website.
1. Data We Do Not Collect
Little Bonsai does not collect any personal data from its users.
- We do not use cookies, web beacons, or any other tracking technologies to gather personal information or track your online activity across other websites.
- We do not collect personal identifiers such as names, email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, or payment information.
- We do not use third-party analytics services (like Google Analytics) that track user behavior.
2. Data We Do Collect: Server Logs
Like virtually all websites, Little Bonsai's web server automatically records a basic set of information in its log files to ensure the security and proper function of the site. This minimal data is collectively referred to as server logs.
What the Server Logs Contain:
Server logs typically include the following non-personal information:
- The IP address used to access the site (which may be used to approximate your location).
- The type of browser and operating system you use.
- The date and time of your visit.
- The pages you viewed on the site.
- The referring URL (the address of the site that linked you to Little Bonsai).
How Server Logs Are Used:
We use this logged information exclusively for the following purposes:
- To maintain security and stability: To identify and troubleshoot technical problems and protect the website from malicious attacks.
- To analyze traffic: To understand general, aggregated patterns of website usage, such as which pages are most popular.
- To meet legal obligations: In the rare event of a court order or subpoena.
3. Data Retention and Security
The server logs are stored securely by our hosting provider for a limited period, as determined by our hosting provider, after which they are automatically deleted. We take reasonable measures to protect the integrity and security of the server logs we control.
4. Disclosure of Data
We do not share, sell, or rent any of the information collected in our server logs with third parties for marketing or any other commercial purpose. The only exception would be if we are legally required to disclose the information in response to a valid court order, government request, or other legal process.
5. Children's Privacy
Little Bonsai is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. Given that we do not collect personal information from any user, this policy further ensures children's privacy.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the Effective Date at the top. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
