Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 September 2026

KernelNest respects your privacy and aims to collect only the information necessary to operate and protect this website.

Who operates this website

KernelNest is an independent website based in the European Union.

Information collected automatically

When you visit KernelNest, the server may temporarily process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, requested pages, date and time of access, and diagnostic or security information.

This information is used to deliver the website, maintain its security, detect abuse and troubleshoot technical problems. The legal basis is the legitimate interest in operating and protecting the website.

Comments

If comments are enabled and you submit one, KernelNest may collect the information entered in the comment form, your IP address and browser user-agent string to assist with spam detection and moderation.

An anonymised string created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Published comments and their associated metadata may remain visible until they are removed.

Cookies

KernelNest uses cookies that are technically necessary for WordPress features such as authentication, administration and comment preferences.

No advertising or non-essential analytics cookies are intentionally used at this time. This policy will be updated before introducing analytics, advertising, newsletter or profiling technologies.

Embedded content

Articles may include embedded content from other websites, such as videos, images or source-code repositories. Embedded content behaves as if you had visited the external website directly.

Those websites may collect information, use cookies or monitor your interaction according to their own privacy policies.

Service providers

The website is hosted on OVHcloud infrastructure located in the European Union. Technical information may be processed by the hosting provider where necessary to provide infrastructure, security and backup services.

Personal information is not sold.

Data retention

Technical data is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for operation, security and troubleshooting. Comment information is retained while the comment remains published or as required to handle moderation and abuse.

Backup copies may temporarily contain information that has since been removed from the live website and are deleted according to the applicable backup cycle.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may request access to, correction of, deletion of or restriction of processing concerning your personal information. You may also object to certain processing and request data portability where applicable.

You may lodge a complaint with the data-protection authority responsible for your place of residence.
