Privacy Policy

Effective date:

SCSRelicRepo curates maritime heritage intelligence and respects the privacy of all visitors. This policy explains how we handle information when researchers, educators, or explorers interact with our platform.

Information We Collect

We do not require account creation. Standard analytics logs may capture anonymized usage metrics such as browser type, device sizing, and interaction heatmaps. No personal identifiers are stored.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use minimal session cookies to ensure consistent presentation of modules and prevent repeated API throttling. Users can disable cookies through browser settings; the site remains partially accessible.

Third-Party Data Sources

Module content is fetched live from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Library of Congress, and Open-Meteo APIs. We do not transmit visitor identifiers to these services; requests are made client-side.

Data Security

Transport encryption (HTTPS) protects data exchanges. We periodically review dependencies to uphold security best practices and remove deprecated libraries.

Children’s Privacy

Our content targets academic and cultural audiences. If we discover unintended retention of information concerning minors, we purge it immediately.

Policy Updates

We periodically update this policy to reflect new stewardship practices or regulatory requirements. Continued use of SCSRelicRepo indicates acceptance of revisions.
