In short
In short: there are no accounts, no forms, no advertising and no analytics on this site. Search and filtering happen inside your browser.
Coffee Gear Finds is a static, read-only reference site. We do not sell products, run a checkout or ask you to sign in. Pages are prebuilt as HTML and served through our hosting provider's content delivery network.
What the site does not do
- No account creation, login, profiles or user-submitted content.
- No contact form, newsletter signup, survey or comment field.
- No shopping cart, payment processing or order history.
- No advertising networks, behavioural profiling, retargeting or session replay.
- No first-party analytics, tag managers or tracking pixels.
Hosting and access logs
Like virtually every website, our hosting provider keeps standard access logs when a browser requests a page or a static file. These records are generated by the infrastructure needed to deliver the site and may include the requested URL, IP address, browser user agent, referring page and timestamp. They are used to keep the service available and secure.
We do not operate a dashboard that combines these records with identifiers or profiles, and we do not publish a retention period here because the specific CDN log settings have not been confirmed yet. If you have a question about hosting data, use the Contact Us page.
Third-party files and embedded video
The table below lists every outside service a page can contact. Font files come from Google Fonts, and one guide embeds a video player from YouTube's privacy-enhanced domain. No other outside services are used to display or measure this site.
| Service | Domains | Why it is used | What it receives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts | fonts.googleapis.com, fonts.gstatic.com | Serves the site's web fonts and icon font. Your browser requests these files directly from Google. | Technical connection data such as your IP address and browser user agent, as part of delivering the font files. Google's Privacy Policy |
| YouTube (embedded video) | www.youtube-nocookie.com | Serves the espresso tutorial embedded on the CM5418 video guide. The privacy-enhanced domain is used and the player loads only on that page. | Technical connection data when the player loads. Pressing play may let YouTube set cookies under its own policy; this site does not read or write them. Google's Privacy Policy |
What we do not run
There are no advertising networks, analytics services, tag managers, tracking pixels or social widgets on this site. One guide embeds a YouTube player through the privacy-enhanced www.youtube-nocookie.com domain; it is used only to show that video, and no script measures visits or behaviour.
Cookies and local storage
This site sets no HTTP cookies. It does keep one small, first-party browser storage record named cgf-privacy-choice when you use Cookie settings; that record holds only the choice you made and its timestamp. It never leaves your browser and is not read by our servers.
Read the Cookie Policy for the exact key, expiry and how to change or withdraw your choice. You can also at any time.
Advertising and affiliate links
Coffee Gear Finds does not currently use affiliate links or display ads. If we add affiliate links in future, we will explain any commission before you use them.
The site currently displays no ads and uses no affiliate links. Product pages describe publicly listed items; they do not track purchases or earn a commission.
What will change if we enable Google AdSense
This section describes a possible future, not the site as it works now. If we later add Google AdSense for visits from Europe and the United Kingdom, we will first integrate a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) that supports the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework. That CMP would show a consent banner, explain Google's vendors and purposes, and store a real consent string before any personalised advertising is requested. We would also publish the required ads.txt record with our publisher ID and update this policy and our Cookie settings before ads appear.
Your choices and contact
You can browse without giving us any information. Clear the privacy preference at any time through Cookie settings, or clear site data in your browser. For questions about this policy or your data, use the Contact Us page; we will not ask you to create an account to get an answer.
