Privacy
BeltPrints is mostly a static website. You can read and copy every blueprint without an account. An account is only needed to upload blueprints or report a problem.
Accounts
You sign in with Google or with an e-mail address and password. With Google we receive your name, e-mail address and profile picture; with e-mail, only the address and the name you choose (passwords are stored hashed by the login service, never readable by us). Your name (or the name you set in your account) and your username are shown on blueprints you upload; your e-mail address is never shown and is only visible to the site's moderators. Account data, your uploads and your reports are stored with Lovable Cloud (run on Supabase) in the EU/US. The login session is kept in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie. You can delete your uploads at any time in your account; to delete the account itself, e-mail us and it is removed with everything you uploaded.
Uploads
When you upload a blueprint, you confirm that you made it or that its creator allows it to be shared here. Uploads are public, appear on their own page and may be shown in search engines. Moderators can hide or remove uploads that break the rules.
Advertising
This site may show ads from Google AdSense. Google and its partners can use cookies to show ads based on your earlier visits to this and other websites. Visitors in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland are asked for consent first, and can change their choice at any time with the Privacy and cookie settings button at the bottom of every page. You can also turn off personalised ads in Google's ad settings. More: how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Visitor statistics
We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which sets no cookies and does not track you across sites. It only tells us which pages are read, roughly from where, and on what kind of device.
The site also keeps its own daily totals: how many times each kind of page and each blueprint was viewed, how often a blueprint string was copied, what was typed into the blueprint search, and which website a visit came from (only the site name). Nothing that identifies you is stored: no cookie, no IP address and no visitor ID, only counts per day. A note in your browser's session storage makes sure a visit is counted once.
Hosting
Pages are served by Cloudflare, which keeps standard request logs (such as IP address and time) for security.
