The Kingdom’s Forge operates thekingdomsforge.com from Modesto, California. This page explains what we collect, why, and what you can do about it.

The short version

We do not sell your personal information. We collect very little — mostly anonymous statistics about how people use the site, plus anything you choose to send us directly.

Information you give us

If you contact us through the site or sign up for updates, we collect the name and email address you provide along with your message. We use it to reply to you and, if you asked for them, to send updates. Nothing else.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, ours records basic technical data when you visit: IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, and the site you arrived from. We use this to understand traffic and to keep the site secure.

Cookies

Cookies are small files your browser stores. We use them for analytics (counting visits and which pages get read), for security (detecting abusive login attempts), and for WordPress itself if you log in or leave a comment. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings and the site will still work.

Embedded content from other sites

Some pages include embedded video from YouTube. Those services can set their own cookies and collect data about you exactly as if you had visited them directly. Their privacy policies govern that data, not ours.

Who we share information with

Information passes through the services we use to run the site: Google Analytics for usage statistics, Brevo for sending email from the site, and Fastmail for our email hosting. We do not sell or rent your information, and we do not share it for advertising.

How long we keep it

Messages you send us are kept as long as we need them to respond and for our records. Analytics data is retained on Google’s standard schedule. You can ask us to delete anything we hold about you at any time.

Your rights in California

Under California law you may ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to delete it, or ask us to correct it. You have the right not to be treated differently for asking. We do not sell or share personal information as the CCPA defines those terms. To make a request, email the address below.

Security

The site uses encrypted connections (HTTPS) and login protection. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect what we hold.

Children

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
