Privacy Policy for Tick & Rise
This Privacy Policy explains how Tick & Rise (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles information when you visit our website about wall clocks and alarm clocks. The site is designed for browsing and reading; it does not require you to create an account.
1. Information we may collect
We aim to keep the amount of personal data we collect as small as possible. Depending on how you use the site, we may process the following types of information:
- Technical and usage data: basic information that most websites receive, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, approximate region, pages you visit, time and date of visits, and referrer URLs.
- Contact data (if you choose to share it): if you write to us by e-mail or another channel, we will receive the contact details and any information you include in your message.
- Preference data: general interest in certain sections of the site, such as whether visitors read mostly the alarm guide or the wall clock collection.
We do not intentionally collect sensitive information such as health data, political opinions or similar categories through this website.
2. How and why we use this information
We use the information described above only for a small number of clear purposes:
- To keep the site running securely: server logs help us detect errors, prevent abuse and keep the pages available.
- To understand which content is useful: aggregated, non-personal insights help us see which sections of the site are most read so we can improve them.
- To respond to messages: if you contact us, we use your details to answer your question or follow up when necessary.
We do not sell your personal data, we do not use it to profile you for advertising, and we do not combine it with data from unrelated third-party databases.
3. Cookies and analytics
The site may use small text files called cookies or similar technologies to remember basic settings and to understand aggregated visitor behaviour.
- Essential cookies: used to deliver pages securely and reliably.
- Analytics tools: if enabled, they help us count visits and see which pages are most helpful, usually in an anonymised or pseudonymised way.
You can typically control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect the way certain elements of the site work, but the core reading experience should remain.
4. Sharing and storing of data
We prefer not to share personal data unless it is clearly necessary. When we do, it is limited to the following situations:
- Service providers: companies that host the website or provide analytics may process data on our behalf under data-protection terms.
- Legal reasons: we may disclose information if required by applicable law or to protect our rights, safety, or the rights and safety of others.
We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purposes above, or as long as local laws require us to keep it. After that, it is deleted or anonymised.
5. Your choices, rights and contact
Depending on where you live, you may have specific rights over your personal data, such as the right to access, correct or delete it, or to object to certain uses.
If you would like to ask a question about this Privacy Policy or exercise a data-related right, you can contact us by e-mail:
