Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 04, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how techwire.dev (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website.

We are committed to minimizing data collection and respecting your privacy.

2. Information We Collect

Information Stored in Your Browser

To improve your experience, we may store preferences directly in your browser using local storage. Depending on the features available, this may include:

  • Theme preference (such as light or dark mode)
  • Content topic preferences
  • Visited posts
  • Last visit information
  • Other user interface preferences

This information remains on your device and is not transmitted to us unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Technical Information

When you access the website, our hosting provider and infrastructure may process technical information including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device information
  • Requested pages
  • Date and time of requests

This information may be processed for security, reliability, troubleshooting, and operation of the website.

Newsletter Signup

If you sign up for the Techwire newsletter or monthly digest, we collect the email address you provide.

We use this email address to maintain the newsletter list, manage your subscription preferences, and send the newsletter if and when the digest becomes active.

3. Analytics

We use Umami Analytics (self-hosted) to understand aggregated usage of the website and improve its performance and content.

Umami operates without cookies and is designed to minimise data collection.

Analytics data may include:

  • Pages viewed
  • Referring pages
  • General usage statistics
  • Interaction with content

Umami may process pseudonymised technical information (such as a hashed identifier derived from request metadata like IP address and user agent) solely for generating aggregate statistics. IP addresses are not stored in full.

We process analytics data based on legitimate interests to operate and improve the website.

4. How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • Operate and maintain the website
  • Remember your preferences
  • Manage newsletter subscriptions and email preferences
  • Send newsletter emails you have signed up to receive
  • Improve content and user experience
  • Monitor performance and reliability
  • Protect against abuse and malicious activity

Where applicable under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process information based on:

  • Legitimate interests for operating, securing, and maintaining the website
  • Legitimate interests for aggregated, privacy-preserving analytics
  • Consent for newsletter subscriptions and related email communications

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information.

Information may be processed by service providers that assist in operating the website, including hosting and infrastructure providers.

Newsletter email addresses may be processed by Resend, our email service provider, for the purpose of managing the newsletter list, subscription preferences, and email delivery.

7. International Transfers

The website is hosted using Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure located in the United States. Newsletter email processing may also involve Resend infrastructure and subprocessors outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

As a result, technical information may be processed outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Appropriate safeguards are relied upon where required by applicable law.

8. Data Retention

Information is retained only for as long as necessary to operate the website, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect the security of the service.

Browser-stored preferences remain under your control and can be removed through your browser settings.

Newsletter email addresses are retained while the subscription remains active, unless you unsubscribe or request deletion earlier.

If GDPR applies to you, you may have rights including:

  • Access to your personal data
  • Correction of inaccurate data
  • Erasure of data
  • Restriction of processing
  • Objection to processing
