The Fizbal Files Privacy

Privacy Policy

This site is run by Fizbal. This page says what fizbal.com collects when you read it, what it does not, and how to reach us about any of it: hello@fizbal.com.

What this site collects

The server that hosts this site keeps standard server logs, as almost every web server does: the address your request comes from (your IP address), the page you asked for, and the time. Those logs exist to run and secure the site. Nobody here uses them to build a profile of you.

When the site counts its own traffic for itself, it does it on its own server, first party and cookieless: the counting stores nothing on your device, IP addresses are shortened before they are stored, and the counts are not shared with or sold to anyone. The counts show which pages get read so the site can be improved; the visit records behind them are deleted after 25 months, and only the summed reports are kept. The network that delivers the site also measures page views for us; that part is described under Content delivery and security below.

To learn how its pages are read, the site can also record how a small share of visits moves through a page. A recording holds the page’s layout with the visitor’s mouse movement, clicks and scrolling; what you type is not captured. Recordings are made and kept on that same server under the same deletion rule, and they are not made in a browser set to a European time zone.

The switch below turns the site’s own counting, recordings included, off for this browser and back on again. It covers only what the site counts for itself; the network’s measurement sits outside this page’s reach.

Your browser has scripts turned off, so no counting script runs here at all. If you turn scripts on later, the counting also honors your browser's Do Not Track setting.

Counting is allowed in this browser.

The switch keeps your choice as one value in this browser's local storage, nothing else: no cookie is set and no request is sent. Clearing your browser data clears the choice too.

There is no account to create, no form to fill, no comment box, no newsletter, no advertising and no advertising cookies. Beyond what this section describes, the site holds nothing about you unless you choose to email us.

Embedded videos

Films sit behind a still image that is part of this site. Nothing loads from YouTube while that image is showing; we checked. Pressing play loads the platform’s player. From that point it receives your IP address, can set cookies and store data in your browser, and runs under its own rules. Its privacy policy and partner-services page describe that side.

Content delivery and security

The site is served through a content delivery and security network, which answers your request from a server near you and filters abusive traffic. To do that job it processes your IP address, and it may set a small number of strictly necessary cookies for security. The cookies it can set are listed in its cookie documentation. The same network also measures for us how fast pages load and how many page views there are: its measuring script uses no cookie and no browser storage, counts page views rather than people, and leaves visitors in the EU and the UK out of this measurement.

Photos and credits

The photographs on this site come from public archives and free-license sources. Each one carries its credit next to the image, naming the author where one is known and linking the license or public-domain status it is used under. If you hold rights in an image used here and something is wrong with it or its credit, write to us and we will correct or remove it.

Contact and requests

hello@fizbal.com is the one address for everything on this page: a copy of whatever we hold about you (usually nothing beyond an email you sent us), a correction, a deletion request, or a copyright question. Say which page, what the problem is, and what you want done. A person reads every request.

Changes to this page

If what the site collects changes, this page changes with it, and the dated line moves. A material change gets described here in plain words, not buried in a list.

In October 2026 the measurement part of this page was rewritten: the network that delivers the site measures page views for visitors outside the EU and the UK, and the site’s own counting gained a 25-month deletion rule for visit records, a recording clause, and the switch above that turns it off for your browser.
