Privacy Policy
Last updated October 20, 2026
Overview
This website, baeronline.com, is a personal site operated by Christopher Baer. This policy describes what information is collected when you visit and how it is used.
Information Collected
If you allow analytics, this site uses Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager) to collect usage data such as pages visited, approximate geographic location, device type, and referral source. This data helps understand how the site is used and improve it over time. Analytics is off unless you choose to allow it.
No personally identifiable information is intentionally collected. No account creation, forms, or user input is required to use this site.
Cookies
After you allow analytics, Google Analytics may set cookies on your device to distinguish unique visitors and track sessions. These are third-party analytics cookies. No first-party cookies are set beyond your privacy consent preference, which is stored in your browser's local storage (not as a cookie).
Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- Know what personal information is collected about you
- Request deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information
- Not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights
This site does not sell your personal information. Analytics data collected through Google Analytics may constitute "sharing" under the CPRA. Analytics remains off until you allow it, and you may change your choice at any time using the privacy controls on this site.
Your Analytics Choice
Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are not loaded, and no cookieless analytics requests are sent, until you select "Allow Analytics." You can manage analytics in the following ways:
- Click "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" in the footer of any page to open the privacy choices and select "Keep Analytics Off" or "Allow Analytics"
- Enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) in your browser — this site automatically honors GPC signals and will disable tracking when detected
- Contact me directly at the address below to request data deletion or opt out
Global Privacy Control
This site respects the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC signal, analytics remains off without any further action needed from you. GPC overrides an earlier saved choice to allow analytics.
Data Retention
If you allow analytics, Google Analytics data is retained according to Google's default retention settings. No personal data is stored on this site's servers.
Third-Party Services
- Google Tag Manager / Google Analytics — loaded only after you allow site usage analytics. SeeGoogle's Privacy Policy.
- Cloudflare — for hosting and content delivery. SeeCloudflare's Privacy Policy.
Changes to This Policy
This privacy policy may be updated from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
