Introduction

This privacy notice explains how thrifted-toy-safety-inspector.hub2.day handles information when you visit or use this site. The site is a focused, independent web utility that helps parents, grandparents, and gift shoppers evaluate secondhand toys for safety hazards, recalls, and age-appropriateness. We aim to keep the site lightweight, transparent, and respectful of your privacy.

Identity of the site

The site is operated under the domain thrifted-toy-safety-inspector.hub2.day. For privacy and data-protection purposes, the operator of this domain is the data controller for the limited personal data described in this notice.

Information you provide

The site does not require accounts, sign-ups, or logins.

We use that information only to respond to your message and to operate or improve the site.

Browser-local inputs

Any notes, checklists, or inputs you create while using the site may be stored locally in your browser (for example, via browser-local storage). This information stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.

Server and security logs

Like most websites, the hosting infrastructure may automatically record limited technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and timestamps. These logs are used for security, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, and basic performance monitoring. Log entries are retained only as long as reasonably necessary and are not used to build individual profiles.

This site may use cookies or similar browser storage for basic functionality and for advertising. Functional cookies or local storage may be used to remember your preferences (for example, consent choices). Advertising cookies may be set by third-party partners, including Google AdSense, to deliver and measure ads.

GDPR / EEA / UK consent

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that requires consent, we rely on appropriate legal bases for processing, including consent where required. Where required, we present a consent mechanism so you can choose whether non-essential cookies and similar technologies are used. You can update your choices at any time by using the site’s preference controls, if available, or by adjusting your browser settings.

CCPA / CPRA-style choices

If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information as defined by applicable law.

You may also email hello@thrifted-toy-safety-inspector.hub2.day to request information about our data practices.

We may use third-party service providers for hosting, analytics, security, and advertising. These providers process data only on our behalf and under our instructions, and are expected to maintain appropriate technical and organizational safeguards.

Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this notice, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Server logs are kept only for a limited period. Information you store locally in your browser remains until you delete it.

Children’s privacy

Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect the limited information we handle. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
