Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2012-11-01
This Privacy Policy describes how Taylor Brooks ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit zuosing.com (the "Site"). The Site is a personal professional website operated by Taylor Brooks, a Everyday lifestyle blogger based in Montreal, Canada. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.
Overview
We operate a static informational website. We do not sell products through the Site, and visitors cannot create profiles here. Content is offered for general information about our practice and background in a straightforward format comparable to a personal portfolio page.
Information we collect
Information you provide. If you email Taylor Brooks at taylor@zuosing.com, we receive the contents of your message, your email address, and optional attachments. Messages are used solely to reply to you. We do not require account registration.
Automatic technical data. The hosting stack may record basic connection data such as IP address, browser type, referring URL, and timestamps. Technical logs are retained briefly for operational reasons. Taylor Brooks does not embed Google Analytics or similar trackers unless explicitly noted in a future update to this policy.
Cookies. We do not use cross-site tracking cookies. Essential cookies from the CDN or hosting provider may be used for routing, caching, or security. Browser settings let you block or delete cookies.
How we use information
Email is reviewed by Taylor Brooks directly to answer questions about legal services, speaking, or professional matters. We do not sell personal information. Visitor browsing is not profiled for ads. Messages may be kept for compliance or continuity purposes unless you request deletion where applicable law allows.
Legal bases and compliance
Regional privacy frameworks may apply depending on your location. Because the Site is informational and contact is voluntary, our lawful basis is typically legitimate interest in operating a professional web presence and consent when you email us. Deletion requests will be honored where no conflicting legal obligation exists.
Third-party services
Hosting and DNS may be provided by Cloudflare. Third-party hosts maintain separate privacy terms. If Google Fonts are loaded, Google may receive IP data. We do not embed social media widgets that track you across sites.
Children
The Site is intended for adults seeking professional information. If a child contacted us, we would delete the message.
Security
Industry-standard transport security is applied. No online system is perfectly secure. Sensitive legal documents should be exchanged through agreed secure methods.
Changes
Material changes will be reflected in the date above. Continued use after updates constitutes acceptance.
Data retention
We retain correspondence according to reasonable business practice. Server logs from hosting providers are rotated on their schedule. Contact us to discuss erasure where regulations allow.
International transfers
Your browser connects to servers chosen by DNS and CDN routing. Cross-border transfer safeguards depend on provider terms.
Your choices
Most pages are read-only. To limit cookies, adjust browser settings. Do not email sensitive documents unless we agree on a secure channel.
California and regional notices
We do not sell personal information as defined by California law. Contact us to exercise applicable state privacy rights. We will verify requests using reasonable methods.
Do Not Track
The Site does not respond to Do Not Track browser signals because we do not track users for advertising.
