Privacy Policy
Updated
Zemivora is a static informational website about Smart TV and streaming troubleshooting. It has no user accounts, no logins, and no database of visitor profiles. This policy explains the small amount of data that is processed when you visit, how advertising works on the site, and the rights you have over your data.
Who is responsible for this site
Zemivora (zemivora.com) is operated by Zemivora. For anything related to privacy, write to contact@zemivora.com. Postal address: available on request via the contact email above.
Zemivora is an independent publication. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any TV manufacturer or streaming service mentioned in its guides.
What data we collect, and what we don't
Zemivora does not require an account and has no login. The pages you read are static files; reading them does not create a profile of you on our side.
There are no forms that store your data on our servers. If you contact us by email, we receive only what you choose to send, and we use it solely to answer you.
Your language preference and your answer to the cookie banner are saved in your own browser and never leave your device. See the Cookie Policy for details.
Hosting and server logs
Like virtually every website, the server that delivers Zemivora keeps standard access logs. These typically include your IP address, the date and time of the request, the page requested, your browser's user-agent string, and the referring page.
These logs exist for security, abuse prevention, and technical troubleshooting. They are retained by our hosting provider for a limited period and are not used to identify or profile individual readers.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
Zemivora shows ads served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
We set no advertising cookies without your consent. Until you allow Advertising in the cookie banner, our pages request no ads from Google, and if you refuse they keep it that way. The AdSense script is still downloaded from Google's servers on the pages that carry it (not on this policy or the Cookie Policy), so Google receives your IP address as with any file loaded from a third party, but while ad requests are paused it sets no new cookies. For visitors in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, Google requires consent through a Google-certified consent platform; when that message is active on this site it will replace our own banner.
You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time in Google's Ads Settings (https://adssettings.google.com), and opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at https://www.aboutads.info. Google explains how it uses data from sites that show its ads at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Analytics
Zemivora uses Google Tag Manager (a container that loads our measurement tools) together with Google Analytics 4, but only if you allow analytics in the cookie banner. We use Google Consent Mode v2, which starts with every consent signal denied before anything loads, so no analytics cookies are written and your visits are not linked together unless you say yes.
If you do allow it, we use Analytics for one purpose: to see which guides get used and which fall short, so we can improve them. We do not sell this data, we do not build advertising profiles from it, and we do not try to identify you. Google processes it as our provider; Google describes its own handling at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Being straight with you: even when you refuse, your browser still downloads the Tag Manager script from Google's servers, so Google receives your IP address as part of that request, the same as with any file loaded from a third party. What does not happen is cookies being written or your browsing being tracked across visits.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time from the Cookie settings link in the footer of any page. See the Cookie Policy for the exact cookies involved.
Your rights (GDPR, CCPA, and similar laws)
If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, the GDPR gives you the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data, plus the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.
If you are a California resident, the CCPA/CPRA gives you the right to know what personal information is collected about you, to request its deletion, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. Zemivora does not sell personal information.
Because this site keeps almost no personal data, most requests will only confirm that we hold nothing about you beyond, at most, an email you sent us. To exercise any right, write to contact@zemivora.com.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the site changes, for example when an analytics or advertising tool is added or changed. The date at the top reflects the latest revision, and significant changes will be published here before they take effect.
