- Improvement: Debug, tweak, and keep our site running like a beast.
Legal Basis (GDPR):

- Legal Crew: If the law knocks, we comply.
CCPA Disclosure: In the last 12 months, we’ve shared identifiers and internet activity with ad and analytics partners for business purposes. We don’t “sell” under CCPA unless you count targeted ads—then you can opt out.
