How MateRico handles site data, contact submissions, newsletter signups, and operational records.
Last updated: May 1, 2026
What this notice covers
This notice explains how MateRico handles personal data when you browse the site, change language or cookie settings, send feedback, upload supporting files, or join the newsletter.
It is written for the public website and product/catalog experience. If a future feature has a separate flow with additional terms, we will link to it directly there.
What we may collect
We keep the data needed to run the site and answer you. Depending on what you do, this can include cookie choices, language preference, contact details you submit, uploaded images or notes, and basic technical records tied to security and troubleshooting.
- Cookie consent state and language preference when you allow preference storage
- Email address, message text, and optional attachments in contact or feedback flows
- Newsletter signup details if you subscribe, including consent evidence needed for MailerLite sending
- Operational logs such as IP address, browser, timestamps, and request metadata
- Minimal technical error telemetry, such as page path without query or hash, request id, browser, timestamp, error type, and hashed IP; we do not collect cookies, request bodies, form fields, or URL query values for this telemetry
Why we use the data
We use data to operate the site, respond to submissions, protect the service, and improve catalog quality. When enabled for the site, Google Analytics starts with analytics and advertising storage denied; full Google Analytics measurement is enabled only after analytics consent. Marketing cookies are not active by default.
- Deliver the pages you request and remember allowed preferences
- Review data corrections, feedback, and moderation-related submissions
- Send newsletter emails only when you requested them
- Detect abuse, investigate errors, and keep the service secure
Sharing, storage, and retention
Data may be processed by infrastructure, Google Analytics, or email providers such as MailerLite acting on our behalf. We do not sell personal data or open community submissions to public indexing by default.
We keep records for only as long as they are useful for the original purpose, legal obligations, or abuse prevention. Uploaded files and feedback material may be retained while the underlying issue is reviewed.
Your choices
You can reopen cookie preferences from the footer at any time. Newsletter emails should always include an unsubscribe path. If you want access, correction, or deletion for information you submitted through MateRico, use the active contact channel shown in the site.
If we materially change this notice, we will update the date on this page and publish the revised version here.
