Privacy Policy
This site sets no cookies, runs no analytics and loads nothing from a third party. What little it does process is described below, in full.
1. Who is responsible
The controller responsible for personal data processed through this website is:
- Company

2. What this site does not do
It is easier to start with the absences, because they are the larger part of the picture. As of the effective date above, this website:
- Sets no cookies. Not for analytics, not for advertising or sponsorship, not for functionality, not for preferences. There is nothing to consent to and no banner to dismiss.
- Runs no analytics or measurement of any kind. We do not count visits, build audience profiles or track behaviour across pages.
- Loads nothing from a third party. No external fonts, scripts, stylesheets, images, embeds, maps, videos, content delivery networks, social widgets, comment systems or anti-spam services. Every file the page needs is served from metaload.org, which means no other company learns that you visited.
- Takes part in no advertising network. The site may carry a sponsorship slot, but any advertising here is plain text served from this domain. No ad network, no third-party script, no tracking pixel, no cookie, and no measurement of impressions or clicks — so a sponsor is told nothing about you, including whether you saw it. This holds whether or not a slot is being shown.
- Has no user accounts, no login, no newsletter and no subscription.
- Does not sell, rent or share personal data with anyone for any purpose.
3. What is processed, and why
3.1 Messages you send us
There is no contact form on this site. The only way to reach us is to email one of the addresses on our contact page, which means this website never receives, processes or stores your message at all — it goes straight from your mail provider to ours.
- What we receive: whatever your email contains, which will normally include your address, your name as your mail client presents it, and the message itself.
- Purpose: to read your message and reply to it. Nothing else.
- Where it lives: in our mailbox, like any other email. No copy is written to this web server, to a database or to any log.
- Retention: correspondence is kept for up to 24 months and then deleted, unless a longer period is needed to deal with a legal claim or to comply with a legal obligation.
- Legal basis: our legitimate interest in responding to correspondence people choose to send us.
Please do not send us sensitive information. Never send us passwords, recovery phrases, private keys, seed words, one-time codes, screenshots of wallet or banking screens, or any other secret. We will never ask for them, and we cannot use them. Email is not a secure channel. If you have already sent us something you should not have, tell us and we will delete it.
3.2 Server access logs
Like any web server, the hosting infrastructure that serves this site records a technical log entry for each request. An entry typically contains the IP address making the request, the date and time, the address requested, the HTTP status returned, the referring address if the browser sent one, and the browser's user-agent string.
- Purpose: keeping the site available, diagnosing faults, and detecting abuse such as automated attacks.
- Retention: 30 days, after which entries are rotated out and deleted.
- Legal basis: our legitimate interest in the security and correct operation of the service.
- Use: these logs are not used to build profiles, to measure audiences, or for any commercial purpose, and they are not combined with any other data.
3.3 A preference stored in your own browser
If you use the light/dark theme switch, your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under the key site-theme. This is not a cookie: it is never transmitted to us or to anyone else, and we cannot read it. It stays on your device until you clear your browser's site data. If you never touch the switch, nothing is stored at all.
More detail is in the cookie policy.
4. Who else is involved
We use two categories of service provider, and no others:
- A hosting provider, which operates the servers this site runs on and generates the access logs described above.
- An email provider, which carries and stores the correspondence described above.
These providers process data on our behalf and under contract, for the purposes set out here and for nothing else. Depending on where their infrastructure is located, data may be processed outside your country of residence; where that involves a transfer outside Türkiye or the EEA, it is made subject to appropriate safeguards. If you want the current identity and location of these providers before contacting us, ask at privacy@metaload.org and we will tell you.
We may also disclose information where we are legally obliged to, or where it is necessary to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. Nothing is disclosed for any commercial reason, because nothing here is for sale.
5. Your rights
Because the company is established in Türkiye, processing is governed by the Law on the Protection of Personal Data (Kişisel Verilerin Korunması Kanunu, Law No. 6698). Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies to a visitor in the EEA or the United Kingdom, we honour the equivalent rights under it.
You may ask us to:
- confirm whether we hold personal data about you, and give you a copy;
- correct anything inaccurate or incomplete;
- delete what we hold, where there is no overriding reason to keep it;
- restrict or object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests;
- withdraw a consent you gave, without affecting anything done before you withdrew it;
- receive data you gave us in a portable form, where that right applies.
Write to privacy@metaload.org. We will respond within the period the applicable law allows, and in any event we aim to acknowledge within five business days. There is no charge for a reasonable request.
In practice, the only personal data we are likely to hold about you is correspondence you sent us, which means a deletion request is usually straightforward. We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting, but only to the extent necessary — and we will never ask you for a password, a recovery phrase or a payment in order to process a request.
If you believe we have handled your data improperly, please raise it with us first. You also have the right to complain to a supervisory authority: in Türkiye, the Personal Data Protection Authority (Kişisel Verileri Koruma Kurumu); in the EEA or the United Kingdom, your national data protection authority.
6. Children
This site publishes general technical writing and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly process personal data relating to a child. If you believe a child has sent us personal data, tell us and we will delete it.
7. Security
The site is served only over HTTPS. It accepts no input of any kind: there is no form, no login and no endpoint that takes a submission, so there is no user-supplied data for it to mishandle. Access to the mailbox that receives correspondence is limited to the people who need it.
The most effective privacy measure here is the amount of data that is never collected in the first place. No safeguard can make transmission over the internet perfectly secure, and we do not claim otherwise.
If you find a security problem with this website, please report it to security@metaload.org.
8. Changes to this policy
If what the site does changes, this page changes in the same release — not afterwards. The effective date at the top always reflects the current version. If we ever introduce cookies, analytics or any third-party component, this policy and the cookie policy will be updated first, and any consent required by law will be requested before such a component loads.
