Privacy notice

Who is responsible

ImmigrationDB is run by Max Streltcoff, as the About page says. Questions about your data go through the contact form.

What is recorded when you browse

Every request passes through Cloudflare, the network provider in front of this site, before it reaches our server (Cloudflare's privacy policy).

Our server writes an access log: your IP address, the time, the address you asked for, the response status, your browser's user agent and the page that linked here. The log is rotated every day and kept for at most 15 days; older files are deleted.

Cookies and storage in your browser

Our own scripts set no cookies and store nothing in your browser.

Google Analytics, described below, sets two first-party cookies on this domain: _ga, a random identifier that tells one browser's visits apart, and _ga_NEXQ62H2LZ, which keeps the current visit together. Each is kept for up to two years.

Analytics and advertising

To count visits and see which pages are read, the site uses Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC. On each page your browser sends Google the address of the page, the page that linked here, your browser, device, language and screen size, the time, and the random identifier from the cookies above. Google uses your IP address to estimate a city and country; it says Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. The data is pseudonymous: it is not linked to your name or email address.

Google processes it under Google's privacy policy; how Google uses information from sites that use its services. To stop it, block cookies for this site, use a content blocker, or install Google's opt-out browser add-on; the site works the same without it.

There is no advertising on this site, and we do not use the analytics data for advertising.

The contact form

The form sends five things: what your message is about, your name, your email address, the page it concerns and your message. They go through FormSubmit, a form service, to the maintainer's mailbox.

They are used to answer you and to check the record you point at, and they are not added to the published data. A message is kept until your request is closed and for twelve months after.

The MCP endpoint

Requests to the MCP endpoint are written to the same access log as page requests. The MCP server itself records no prompts, no tool arguments and no responses. To limit how many requests one client can make, it keeps a salted hash of the client address in memory; the hash is never written to disk.

Your rights

You can ask to see what is held about you, to correct it, to delete it or to stop its use, and you can complain to a data-protection authority. Send the request through the contact form.
