Privacy Policy
Updated October 2025
Overview
Mihalism.net is a documentation and reference website. This policy describes how we handle visitor information on this site specifically. If you use Multi Host software on another server, that installation's operator sets their own policies.
Information Collection
Server Logs
Our hosting provider maintains standard server logs including:
- IP addresses
- Requested URLs
- Referrer headers
- User agent strings
- Timestamps
These logs support security monitoring and troubleshooting. They are retained according to our hosting provider's practices and not used for tracking or profiling.
Analytics
This site does not use client-side analytics scripts, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting technologies. We do not collect behavioural data about your browsing patterns.
Cookies
This site uses minimal cookies:
- Essential cookies: May be set by our hosting infrastructure for security and performance purposes
- No tracking cookies: We do not set advertising, analytics, or cross-site tracking cookies
Your browser settings control cookie acceptance. Blocking cookies should not affect your ability to use this documentation site.
Form Submissions
If you submit information through contact forms, that information is used only to respond to your enquiry. We do not add contact information to mailing lists or share it with third parties.
Information Sharing
We do not sell visitor information. Limited sharing may occur:
- Hosting providers: Technical infrastructure providers process requests to deliver pages
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law
- Security incidents: Relevant information may be shared when investigating abuse or attacks
Third-Party Content
Documentation pages may embed or link to:
- External documentation sites
- Code repositories
- Standard specification documents
These external resources have their own privacy practices. Links are provided for reference; we do not control third-party data handling.
Data Retention
Server logs are retained according to hosting provider defaults, typically 30-90 days. We do not maintain long-term archives of visitor data.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:
- Access information held about you
- Request deletion of your information
- Object to certain processing
For requests regarding your data, use the contact information on our contact page. Note that we retain minimal visitor information, so there may be limited data to provide or delete.
Children's Privacy
This site provides technical documentation and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Security
We use HTTPS encryption for all connections. Our hosting infrastructure includes standard security measures. However, no internet transmission is completely secure.
Policy Changes
This policy may be updated to reflect changes in practices or legal requirements. Significant changes will be noted with an updated revision date.
Multi Host Software
This policy covers mihalism.net specifically. If you operate Multi Host software, you are responsible for your own privacy practices and policies regarding data collected by your installation.
