Privacy Policy
What The Zioneer measures, what stays in your browser, which service providers are involved, and how to control first-party analytics.
Effective date and scope
Effective 24 July 2026. This policy covers the public The Zioneer website, including MAGEN. The protected operator dashboard is an internal service and uses a separate essential authentication session.
We describe the system that is actually deployed. If the data we collect, the providers we use, or the retention rules materially change, we will update this page and its effective date.
Browser storage and consent
The site stores a theme preference in a first-party cookie and may store open-or-closed side-rail preferences in local storage. These settings provide the interface you requested and are not used to build an advertising profile. Your analytics choice is also stored locally so the site can respect it.
The Zioneer's owned analytics are off until you choose “Allow analytics.” If you decline, or if your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, the owned analytics remain off and existing analytics identifiers are cleared. You can change the choice using the controls on this page. Clearing site data in your browser also removes these preferences.
First-party analytics we own
After consent, the site creates random device and tab-session identifiers and records page paths, a referring host when present, campaign parameters in the URL, locale, coarse device class, selected interactions, reading-depth and engagement events, browser performance measurements, and sampled client errors. We do not ask for or place names, email addresses, full user-agent strings, or payment details in this analytics dataset.
These records are used to understand readership, diagnose failures, and improve performance and navigation. Raw first-party analytics and performance records are limited to a 90-day operational window; aggregated daily measurements may be kept longer because they do not contain the device or session identifiers. Automated rollups exclude traffic tagged as bots.
Service providers and external media
Vercel hosts the website and provides cookie-free, anonymous Web Analytics and Speed Insights. Its measurement can include the requested path, referrer, approximate geography, device, operating system, browser, and performance metrics. Vercel and other infrastructure providers may process network information such as an IP address in ordinary request and security logs.
Supabase hosts publication and analytics data in its Frankfurt region. MAGEN loads mapping resources from Mapbox when you open the live map. YouTube content is privacy-enhanced and click-to-load: no player iframe is created until you choose to load the video. Once loaded, Mapbox or YouTube receives the network information necessary to serve its content and its own terms and privacy practices apply.
We do not sell the owned analytics dataset and do not use it for targeted advertising.
Your choices and contact
Use the controls below to allow or decline The Zioneer's owned analytics. Browser controls can clear stored preferences and identifiers, block storage, or send a privacy signal. Because our identifiers are random and we do not maintain an account that links them to your name, we may be unable to identify a particular anonymous analytics record as yours.
For a privacy question, write to corrections@thezioneer.com with “Privacy” in the subject. This is the only public contact address currently published; we do not invent a separate address or response-time promise.
First-party analytics are off.
