Privacy policy
Effective December 1, 2026
stanfixes.com is run by me, Stanley Goldman, a sole proprietor. This page says what I collect, why, who else handles it, and how long I keep it. Questions go to hello@stanfixes.com.
The short version
- The site has no accounts, no cookies, no ad trackers and no Google tags.
- The only personal details I collect are the ones you type into the request form, or send me by email.
- Your request arrives as an email to me. It isn’t stored in a database.
- I never sell or share your details for advertising.
What I collect
When you send a request. The form asks for your name, your email, and details about your app: what it does, what you built it with, where you’re stuck, what you’ve tried, its address, its stage, whether you can give read-only access, and any deadline. The form says not to send passwords, keys or your users’ data. If you send them anyway, I delete them.
When you email me. Whatever you put in the email, plus your address.
When you visit. I count visits with Umami, an analytics tool that I run on my own server. It records the page, the referring site, campaign tags in the link (such as utm_source), clicks on the request buttons, and your browser, device type and country. It sets no cookies and stores no IP address or anything else that identifies you.
Server logs. The servers that deliver the site keep standard logs, including your IP address, for security and to fix faults.
Spam protection. The request form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks your browser for signs of a bot. Cloudflare handles that data under its own privacy policy.
Why I use it
- To reply to your request, decide whether a first-look fits, and do the work if you go ahead.
- To keep the site running, secure and free of spam.
- To see which pages and links bring people to the site, in totals only.
If you become a Client
Once I accept your request, it becomes the record of our work together. Read-only access to your code is arranged separately. During a first-look I read your code and settings, never your users’ data. When the work ends, I remove my access, delete any copy of your code I made, and tell you I’ve done both. I keep the report and our emails.
I keep anonymised notes of the kinds of problems I find (for example, “sign-in settings pointing at the preview address”), with no names, code or details that could identify you or your app. I use them to improve the service and may publish totals from them. Nothing else from your app appears anywhere without your written permission.
Who else handles it
- Cloudflare delivers the site, runs the request form’s handler and Turnstile, and forwards email sent to stanfixes.com addresses to me.
- Mailfence hosts my inbox, where requests and emails arrive.
- Akamai (Linode) hosts the server the site and its analytics run on.
None of them may use your details for their own purposes beyond running their service. Some of them process data outside your country, including in the United States.
How long I keep it
- Requests I decline, and requests that go nowhere: deleted 90 days after my reply.
- Requests I accept, and our emails: kept with the record of our work for as long as I need it for tax and business records, at most 7 years.
- Analytics: totals, with nothing that identifies you, kept as long as they’re useful.
- Server logs: kept for a short period, then deleted.
Your choices
You can ask me to show you, correct or delete what I hold about you, or to stop using it, by emailing hello@stanfixes.com. I’ll reply within 30 days. The only thing I may keep after a deletion request is what the law requires me to keep, such as records of payments. If you’re in the EU or UK, you can also complain to your data protection authority.
I don’t sell your details or share them for advertising, as California law defines those terms.
Children
The site and the service are for adults. I don’t knowingly collect details from anyone under 18.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version goes here with a new effective date. If the change affects details I already hold, I’ll email the people it affects.
