Settled in SG ("we", "the site") is a personal publishing project. This page explains what information is collected when you visit, and why.
The site is a set of static pages. We do not have user accounts and we do not ask you to log in. Our hosting provider (GitLab Pages) may keep standard server logs, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, for security and operational purposes.
We do not run a newsletter and we do not collect email addresses. You can follow new guides through the RSS feed, which requires nothing from you.
We may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings. See also how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
We use Google Analytics to understand which guides people read and roughly where readers come from. It is off until you choose Accept on the banner. If you decline, or ignore the banner, the Google Analytics script is never loaded, no analytics cookies are set and nothing is sent to Google.
If you accept, Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser and collects a cookie identifier, the pages you view, how you arrived, your approximate location (country and city level, not your address) and basic device and browser information. We see this only as reports. We never receive your name or email address through it, and we do not combine it with anything else we hold. Google processes this data on our behalf and may do so on servers outside Singapore; see Google's privacy policy.
You can change your mind at any time with the Privacy choices link in the footer. Choosing Decline afterwards stops further measurement and clears the analytics cookies this site can see. We do not sell personal data.
If you are in Singapore, the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) applies. If you are in the EU or UK, the GDPR applies. In either case you can ask what data we hold about you — in practice, nothing beyond what you have sent us by email — and ask us to delete it by emailing hello@settledinsg.com.
We will update this page when our practices change and revise the date at the top.
