Privacy Policy

About this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you visit or use HomDera, why that information may be needed and which choices may be available through your browser, cookie settings, advertising preferences or third-party services.

HomDera processes only the information needed to operate and protect the website, understand general usage, display advertising and respond to messages sent by visitors.

Who operates HomDera

HomDera is an independent online project operated from Ukraine by the HomDera team. For questions about this Privacy Policy or information submitted directly to HomDera, contact support@homdera.com.

HomDera determines how messages submitted directly through its contact channels are used. Google and other service providers process technical, analytics or advertising data under their own terms and privacy policies.

Information that may be processed

• Technical information, such as an IP address, device type, browser, operating system, language, screen or device settings, approximate location derived from technical data, and the date and time of a visit.
• Website usage information, such as pages viewed, navigation between sections, session duration, referral source and interactions with website elements or calculators.
• Cookies and similar technologies that may support essential website functions, security, analytics, preference storage, advertising and performance measurement.
• Information you provide voluntarily, such as your name, email address and message when contacting HomDera through an available communication channel.
• Information processed by third-party providers, including hosting, content delivery, security, analytics and advertising services, as part of providing their functions.
• Values entered into public calculators are processed in the visitor's browser to produce the requested result and are not intentionally stored by HomDera or sent to Google Analytics. Calculator fields should not be used for names, contact details or other personal information.

How information may be used

• Operate website pages, calculators and essential technical functions.
• Detect errors, spam, automated abuse and security threats.
• Measure general website usage and improve navigation, content and performance.
• Respond to questions, corrections and technical reports submitted by visitors.
• Display and measure advertising and comply with applicable legal obligations.

Legal reasons for processing

Depending on your location and the type of information involved, processing may be based on your consent, the legitimate interest in operating and improving the website, the need to respond to a request you submitted, compliance with a legal obligation or another basis permitted by applicable law.

Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, analytics or personalised advertising, you may be asked to make a choice through a cookie banner or privacy settings tool. Where available, you can later change that choice through the same settings or by adjusting your browser and third-party account preferences.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files or identifiers stored in a browser or device. HomDera and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for consent settings, analytics, advertising, security and basic website operation.

• Essential storage is used to remember cookie and privacy choices and support required website functions.
• Google Analytics may use cookies or similar identifiers to measure visits and website usage when the required permission has been given.
• Google AdSense may use cookies, IP addresses, web beacons or other identifiers to deliver and measure advertising in accordance with the visitor's location and consent choices.
• Non-essential analytics and advertising storage can be accepted or rejected through the HomDera cookie banner.
• Cookie choices can later be reviewed through the Cookie Settings button in the website footer.

Website analytics

HomDera uses Google Analytics 4 to measure general website usage, including page views, session information, device and browser categories, referral sources, interactions and approximate geographic information.

Analytics data is used to identify technical problems and understand which pages and calculators are being used. HomDera does not intentionally send names, email addresses, payment details or calculator field values to Google Analytics.

Google AdSense advertising

HomDera uses Google AdSense to display advertising. Google and its advertising partners may place or read cookies, use IP addresses, web beacons, device identifiers and similar technologies to deliver advertisements, limit repeated ads, detect invalid activity and measure advertising performance.

Depending on the visitor's location, consent choice and Google settings, advertisements may be personalised or may be selected using contextual information such as the page content, general location, language or device type.

Visitors can manage HomDera cookie choices through Cookie Settings in the footer and manage Google advertising personalisation through Google My Ad Center or their Google Account.

HomDera does not sell names, email addresses or message content submitted through its contact channels. Advertising identifiers may nevertheless be treated as sharing or targeted advertising under some privacy laws, and visitors can use the available consent and advertising controls where those rights apply.

Third-party services

HomDera uses third-party providers for hosting, website security, analytics and advertising. The services specifically described in this Policy include Google Analytics and Google AdSense.

These providers may receive technical information such as an IP address, browser and device details, page address, timestamps, cookie identifiers and security signals. Their own privacy policies govern how they process that information.

International data processing

Some hosting, analytics, advertising, security or infrastructure providers operate internationally. As a result, technical or contact information may be processed in a country other than the country where you live.

Where required, service providers may use contractual, organisational or legal safeguards for international data transfers. The level of legal protection may differ between countries, and additional information may be available in the relevant provider's privacy documentation.

Messages and enquiries

When you contact HomDera using the methods listed on the Contact page, we may receive your name, email address, message and any other information you choose to include.

This information may be used to answer your enquiry, investigate a reported error, review a correction or suggestion, prevent misuse and maintain an appropriate record of the communication. Please limit your message to information that is genuinely needed for the request.

How long information may be retained

Messages sent directly to HomDera are normally retained for [ACTUAL NUMBER] months after the enquiry is resolved, unless they are needed longer for security, legal compliance or an ongoing dispute.

Analytics, advertising, hosting and security providers apply their own retention settings and policies. Aggregated statistics that no longer identify an individual may be retained for longer.

Information security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect the website, administrative access and information processed through HomDera. Measures may include secure hosting features, encrypted connections, access restrictions, software updates, monitoring and safeguards against common forms of abuse.

Your privacy choices and rights

Privacy rights differ by country, state or region. Depending on the law that applies to you and the nature of the processing, you may have rights relating to access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, withdrawal of consent or receipt of information about how your personal data is used.

• Manage optional cookies through Cookie Settings in the website footer.
• Restrict or delete cookies through browser settings.
• Manage Google advertising personalisation through Google My Ad Center.
• Request access to, correction of or deletion of information submitted directly to HomDera, where the request can be verified and applicable law provides that right.
• Withdraw consent or object to certain processing where such rights apply in your jurisdiction.

A request may require enough information to confirm that it relates to the correct communication or record. We may decline or limit a request where permitted by law, including when information must be retained for security, legal compliance, dispute resolution or the protection of other people.

Children's privacy

HomDera is not directed specifically at children and does not require an account or personal details to use its public articles and calculators.

If we learn that a child submitted unnecessary personal information through a contact channel, we will take reasonable steps to remove it. A parent or guardian may contact us about such information.

Links to other websites

HomDera may link to external websites, services, references, retailers, manufacturers or tools. A link does not mean that HomDera controls the external website or its data practices.

Before submitting information to an external website or using an external service, review its own privacy policy, cookie information and terms of use.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when website functionality, contact methods, third-party providers, analytics tools, advertising settings, legal requirements or data practices change. The current version will remain available on this page.

Last updated: June 23, 2026. The date will be revised when material changes are made to this Policy.
