Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Sweat Explained handles information when you visit this website. Sweat Explained is an educational website about sweating, and it is built to work without collecting personal information from the people who read it.

We do not ask you to create an account, and the site has no contact forms, sign-ups, comment sections, or newsletter. Because of that, we do not collect names, email addresses, or other personal details from visitors through the site itself.

This website uses first-party analytics cookies from Google Analytics to understand how the site is used, as described below. It does not use advertising networks or cross-site tracking, and nothing here is designed to build an advertising profile of you or to follow you across other websites.

Analytics are provided by Google Analytics (GA4), which uses first-party analytics cookies to measure how pages are used. Through Google Analytics, Google may process information such as your browser and device type, approximate (city-level) location, and how you use the site, in order to produce aggregate usage statistics. Advertising personalization and Google Signals are not enabled, so this information is not used to build advertising profiles about you.

The site is hosted on Vercel. Like most web hosts, Vercel may automatically process standard technical information needed to deliver and secure the site, such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you request, in its server logs. That processing is handled by Vercel under its own terms.

If you choose to buy the book, the purchase is completed on Gumroad, a third-party platform. Any details you enter to complete a purchase, such as payment information and a delivery email address, are collected and processed by Gumroad under Gumroad's own privacy policy. Gumroad may in turn provide Sweat Explained, as the seller, with limited buyer and order information, such as your name, email address, the product purchased, and transaction details. Full payment-card information is not received or stored by Sweat Explained.

If you email us at support@sweatexplained.com, we receive your message and your email address so that we can reply, and we use that information only to respond to you.

Some pages link to outside resources, such as health organizations, and to Gumroad. Those websites have their own privacy practices, which this policy does not cover.

This site publishes general educational information for a broad audience. It is not directed at children, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.

We do not sell, rent, or trade visitor data. Where third parties such as our analytics provider, our host, or the checkout provider process information, they do so only to provide their service.

We may update this policy as the site changes. If you have any questions about privacy, you can contact us at support@sweatexplained.com.
