Privacy Policy

This policy explains what AcademyGems collects and why. The short version: this website uses privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics, does not sell your data, and uses affiliate links.

Analytics

AcademyGems uses Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool, to understand which pages are useful. It is cookieless and does not collect personal information or track you across other websites. Only aggregate figures such as page views, referrers, and country are visible, never individuals.

Affiliate links

Some links on AcademyGems are affiliate links. If you click one and buy, the retailer may set its own cookies and may pay AcademyGems a commission at no extra cost to you. Those cookies and the retailer's data handling are governed by that retailer's own privacy policy, not this one. See the affiliate disclosure in the site footer and on every review.

What AcademyGems collects directly

AcademyGems does not run accounts, comments, or newsletters yet, so no names or emails are collected through the site. If you send an email, whatever you choose to include is received so a reply can be sent.

Your choices

Because AcademyGems's analytics are cookieless and anonymous, there is nothing personal to opt out of. You can still block analytics with your browser or an extension. If you are in a region with data rights (such as the EU or California) and believe AcademyGems holds information about you, reach out using the contact below for help.
