Privacy
Reading Puls Strom requires no account, and we do not build advertising profiles or track you across other sites.
What we collect
Only the technical data needed for security and spam prevention, and, once comments open, for guest comment controls (editing or deleting your own comment from your browser).
Comments
Comments are not open yet. When they open, you will be able to comment as a guest without an account or email address.
Claim Check requests
If you send us a link to check, giving an email is optional. It is never published, is used only to reply to you, and is deleted after we reply or within 90 days.
Article feedback
Feedback on articles is anonymous. It is stored privately and used to fix articles and improve how our writers write.
Comments: your display name and comment are shown publicly after review. We don’t ask for an email. A scrambled (hashed) version of your connection address is kept only to limit abuse, never in plain text.
How long we keep things
| What | How long |
|---|---|
| Security logs | Deleted automatically after 30 days |
| Submissions blocked as spam | Deleted after 7 days |
| Comments held for a safety review | Kept only until The Architect reviews them, then published or deleted |
| Contact-form messages (error reports, tips) | Kept for 90 days after the issue is resolved |
| An email address you give us for a reply | Deleted once we have replied |
Access to this data is restricted. Edit and delete access to your own comments may not survive clearing your browser data or switching devices.
Who handles this data
Cloudflare hosts the site. Once comments and the contact form are live, Cloudflare will also store them, and Cloudflare Turnstile will provide spam protection without asking for your email.
Privacy in our reporting
Our writers do not seek or repeat private personal data beyond what a story strictly needs, and never publish personal contact or location details.
