Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 2, 2026
This policy describes the operation of PaperGridly at papergridly.com. It distinguishes website statistics, contact messages and the values entered in our printing tools.
Publisher and privacy contact
Andrew Parkings operates PaperGridly from England, United Kingdom and is responsible for the personal information processed through this website. For privacy enquiries or requests, email papergrids@proton.me or use the contact form.
Contact messages
When you use our form, we process the name, email address, subject, message and any optional details you submit to respond to the enquiry. The form sends messages by email through the website’s mail system. Please do not send passwords, financial details or sensitive personal information. Hosting and email services necessarily handle the communication. We use enquiry information to respond and handle follow-up; contact us to request deletion, subject to any applicable obligation to retain records.
Website operation
Requests to the website expose technical information such as IP addresses and requested URLs to the hosting infrastructure. Security systems may use request data to prevent abuse. PaperGridly uses WordPress and is hosted with Shock Hosting. HTTPS encrypts the connection; it is not a guarantee against every security risk.
Analytics: Koko Analytics
We use the self-hosted Koko Analytics WordPress plugin. On November 2, 2026 we selected its “None” visitor-detection mode: it counts total pageviews without identifying returning visitors or reporting unique visitors. This mode does not set an analytics cookie or create the temporary visitor fingerprint used by its alternative cookieless mode. Earlier visits may have used its cookie-based mode, which uses a cookie lasting up to 24 hours. See the plugin’s description of these modes. Statistics remain in the site’s WordPress installation. This does not remove ordinary hosting and security request handling.
Printing tools and generated files
The paper generator and calculators perform their calculations in your browser. Their input values and generated documents are not uploaded by these tools. Loading a tool page still makes normal requests for the page, scripts and other website resources. General website statistics and any third-party advertising code are separate from the calculator inputs.
Google AdSense
PaperGridly has applied to Google AdSense. Applying, or including an integration script, does not mean Google has approved the site or endorses its content. Google code may make requests to Google when it is loaded. If advertising is enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies and similar identifiers to deliver, measure and protect advertising, and to personalize it where permitted. See how Google uses information from partner sites and Google’s advertising controls. A general site cookie banner should not be taken as proof that a Google-certified advertising consent system is configured.
External services and links
External links, including X and source documentation, take you to services with their own privacy rules. Hosting, email and advertising providers may process information in other countries. Their actual terms and processing arrangements determine how those services handle it; this policy does not promise an unverified transfer safeguard or contract.
Your choices and requests
You can block or delete cookies in your browser and avoid sending optional information. Depending on the law applicable to you, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of personal information, withdraw consent or complain to a data-protection authority. Contact us with enough information to identify your enquiry; do not send identity documents unless a justified verification need has been explained.
Updates
We update this page when the website’s operation changes. Read the Cookie Policy for browser-storage information and the Legal Notice for the site’s publishing status.
