Effective Date: March 1, 2026
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") governs the collection, use, and disclosure of information by Bitlog Analytics, accessible at bitloganalytics.com (the "Site," "Service," "we," "us," or "our"). Bitlog Analytics is a non-commercial art project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, given the nature of the Service — specifically, that it operates as a web analytics platform — this Policy is provided in good faith to inform users ("you" or "your") of our data practices.
By accessing the Site or transmitting data to the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Policy.
1. Data Controller
Bitlog Analytics is operated by Jacob Voytko, who serves as the sole data controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable data protection laws. Jacob Voytko is also the sole authorized user and customer of the Service. No other individual or entity has access to the collected data except as described in this Policy.
2. Information We Collect
In the course of providing the Service, we collect non-personally-identifiable data available within the context of the originating webpage and the associated HTTP request transmitted to our tracking endpoint. The Service does not store Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or any other personally identifiable information in its application database or analytics pipeline. (Infrastructure-level access logs are described in Section 7.) The data stored by the Service is limited to the following:
- User-Agent string
- HTTP Referer header
- Page URL from which the request originated
- Date and time of the request
3. Legal Basis for Processing
We process data collected through the Service pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation, on the basis of our legitimate interest in understanding traffic patterns and usage of the Tracked Properties. We have assessed that this interest is not overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of data subjects, given that: (a) the data collected is limited to information already transmitted in the ordinary course of HTTP requests; (b) no personally identifying profiles are constructed from the data; and (c) the data is used exclusively for first-party analytics purposes.
4. Use of Cookies
As of the Effective Date, the Site does not deploy cookies or similar tracking technologies. In the event that cookies are implemented in the future, an appropriate opt-out mechanism (such as a cookie consent banner) will be provided, and this Policy will be updated to include a full disclosure of the types, purposes, and duration of such cookies prior to their deployment.
5. Purpose of Data Collection
Data collected through the Service is used solely for the purpose of providing web analytics for bitlog.com and such other domains as are owned or operated by Jacob Voytko (collectively, the "Tracked Properties").
6. Disclosure to Third Parties
We do not sell, rent, license, or otherwise disclose collected data to any third party. The sole exception to the foregoing is that the Service is hosted on infrastructure provided by a third-party hosting provider (currently DigitalOcean, LLC), which, by virtue of providing such infrastructure, necessarily has access to the systems on which data is stored and processed.
7. Data Retention
The Service does not store personally identifiable information at the application level. Non-personally-identifiable analytics data (such as page view counts, referral statistics, and User-Agent strings) may be retained indefinitely.
The Caddy reverse proxy server used to route requests to the Service may generate access logs containing IP addresses, User-Agent strings, and request URLs. These infrastructure-level logs are subject to Caddy's default log retention policy, which retains log files for up to ninety (90) days before automatic deletion.
8. International Data Transfers
All data collected by the Service is stored on servers operated by DigitalOcean, LLC, located in the NYC3 region (New York City, United States). If you are accessing the Service from outside the United States, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your data to the United States for processing and storage.
9. User Rights and Opt-Out
The Service does not provide a self-service mechanism by which users may access, review, correct, or request deletion of data collected hereunder. Users who wish to opt out of data collection may do so by blocking requests to the domain bitloganalytics.com through the use of a browser extension, modification of the system hosts file, or any other technically equivalent means.
10. Modifications to This Policy
We reserve the right to amend, modify, or replace this Policy at any time and in our sole discretion. Any such modifications shall be effective upon publication of the revised Policy at this URL. Your continued use of or interaction with the Service following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
