Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 12, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and process your information when you use our website.

1. Information We Collect

We use Google Analytics to help us understand how users interact with our site. When you visit our website and provide consent, we may collect information including:

• Your IP address (anonymized)
• Browser type and version
• Pages you visit and the time spent on those pages
• General location data (such as country or city)
• Device information

2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our website and hold certain information.

• Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics to analyze traffic. By default, these cookies are disabled. They will only be placed on your device if you explicitly click “Accept” on our consent banner.
• Cookieless Pings: If you decline cookies or have not yet made a choice, Google Analytics operates in Consent Mode. It may send basic, anonymous “cookieless pings” to model traffic patterns without storing any personal data or identifying you across sessions.

3. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect through analytics is used solely to:

• Understand how visitors use the website.
• Improve the design, content, and functionality of our simulations and pages.
• Ensure the site is working correctly across different devices and browsers.

We do not sell, rent, or share this data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

4. Your Choices

You have the right to accept or decline the use of analytics cookies.

• Accepting: Grants permission to use cookies for detailed, anonymized tracking.
• Declining: Blocks cookies. We will only receive basic, unidentifiable traffic data.

You can change your preferences at any time by clearing this site’s entry in your browser’s local storage (not cookies), which will prompt the consent banner to appear again. In most browsers you can do this via Developer Tools → Application → Local Storage.

5. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Last updated” date at the top.
