Thank you for your interest in Polisticka. Our commitment to protecting and respecting your right to privacy is central to our opportunity to address complicated and uncomfortable subjects.

This privacy policy explains Polisticka's online information practices, including how your information is collected and used. It covers information collected on this website only. It does not apply to other sites you reach through the site, including social media channels we use.

Information stored and collected automatically

This website is hosted on Ghost.org. Ghost collects limited information about visits to this site. This information is used to measure the number of visitors to the various sections of the website and identify performance or problem areas.

We do not share or sell visitor data for the purposes of advertising, marketing, or any other commercial purpose.
