Privacy policy
DeskGearScout is intended to launch as a lightweight content site with minimal direct data collection.
At launch, the site is expected to operate with minimal direct user-data capture. The goal is a straightforward content experience rather than a heavy form, account, or email-collection flow.

What may still be collected
Basic technical logs can still exist even on a simple site
DeskGearScout does not offer reader accounts or checkout. Cloudflare provides hosting analytics and loads Google Analytics through Cloudflare Zaraz, so these services may process technical data such as IP address, device or browser category, referring page, and visited pages.
Hosting logsInfrastructure providers may record request and access information for delivery, uptime, and abuse prevention.
Basic analyticsCloudflare and Google Analytics may capture page-level usage, referral context, coarse geography, and technical device or browser details.
Affiliate click measurementClicks into a DeskGearScout product handoff may record the source-page path and handoff-route path. Clicks from a handoff page to Amazon may record the handoff-page path and Amazon destination domain. These events do not include a product price, order value, name, email address, or account information.
How to read this policy right now
Launch scope is intentionally narrow
The current policy reflects a simple content site rather than a product with accounts, checkout, or direct reader submissions.
Future features change the privacy picture
If contact forms, newsletters, or other direct data-capture tools are added later, this page should be expanded before those features go live.
Readers should expect revision
This policy is meant to be clear about the current lightweight setup, not pretend the final long-term privacy posture is already locked.

Use the supporting pages for the rest of the picture
Privacy is only one part of launch readiness. Use the About page for site scope, the Contact page for corrections or questions, and the Disclosure page for affiliate-link transparency.
This privacy policy should be reviewed again before adding contact forms, email capture, advertising, or any feature that increases direct user-data collection.
