Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2025 | Last Updated: June 15, 2025
1. Who We Are and Data Controller
This Privacy Policy applies to 111111 (operating the digital publication and itinerary advisory portal at stevess.fun). For the purposes of applicable data protection regulations including the United States federal and state frameworks (e.g., California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for international visitors, 111111 is the primary Data Controller.
Official Contact for all privacy, compliance, and data subject requests: [email protected].
2. Scope of this Policy
This policy governs personal data collected when you navigate stevess.fun, subscribe to our monthly journal newsletter, submit an inquiry through our digital communication forms, or request custom route planning dossiers.
3. Categories of Data We Collect
(a) Information You Directly Provide: Name, email address, optional contact telephone number, and the specific narrative or itinerary details you provide via our contact forms.
(b) Automatically Collected Information: IP address, device type, browser user-agent, operating system, approximate geographic locale (country/state level), time spent per article, and referring URL.
(c) Consent & Cookie Identifiers: Anonymous identifiers recorded via your Google Consent Mode v2 choices.
4. Purposes of Processing & Legal Bases
| Purpose | Data Involved | Legal Basis (GDPR / US Law) |
|---|---|---|
| Responding to reader inquiries and custom dossiers | Name, email, phone, message | Contractual necessity & legitimate interest |
| Delivering editorial newsletters | Email address | Explicit Consent (opt-in) |
| Website security and threat mitigation | IP address, HTTP request headers | Legitimate interest & legal obligation |

5. Cookie Governance and Google Consent Mode v2
111111 has deployed advanced Google Consent Mode v2. By default, before user interaction with our banner, all non-essential analytics and advertising storages (such as analytics_storage, ad_storage, and ad_user_data) are locked in a denied state. Strictly essential functional storage remains active solely to preserve the integrity of your session.
You may update, revoke, or customize these preferences at any time by clicking the link present in the site footer.
6. Data Sharing and Non-Sale of Personal Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. Under the CCPA/CPRA, we confirm that 111111 has not sold or shared any consumer personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising in the preceding 12 months. We only share information with vetted infrastructure vendors (e.g., secure web hosts and email deliverability services) bound by confidentiality obligations.
7. International Transfers & Retention Periods
Data submitted through stevess.fun may be hosted on secured cloud infrastructure in the United States and Europe governed by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs). Form inquiries are retained for up to 24 months to support reader correspondence, after which they are purged or irreversibly anonymized.
