# Privacy

> Data collected when you use Registry Docs and how Registry Stack uses it.

Registry Docs uses self-hosted, cookie-free analytics to understand which documentation pages
help readers and where the documentation needs attention.
This page describes that processing and the choices available to you.

{/* Evidence: `docs/site/src/lib/analytics.mjs`, `DOCS_UMAMI_SCRIPT_SRC`, fixes the self-hosted
    tracker endpoint; `docs/site/src/components/RegistryHead.astro`, `docsAnalyticsConfig()`,
    includes that tracker in the canonical released tree; `docs/site/scripts/build-archives.mjs`,
    `verifyAnalytics`, enforces the disabled versioned tree. Umami's official FAQ documents
    cookie-free collection in the [Umami FAQ](https://docs.umami.is/docs/faq). */}

## Who operates Registry Docs

Aubex Consulting LLC, 28 Geary St, Ste 650 #189, San Francisco, CA 94108,
United States, publishes Registry Stack and operates Registry Docs.
Aubex is the controller responsible for this site.
You can contact Aubex at [contact@registrystack.org](mailto:contact@registrystack.org).

## Analytics data

Registry Docs loads self-hosted Umami analytics from `stats.registrystack.org` only on the
canonical documentation at `docs.registrystack.org/`.
The `/dev/` tree and versioned `/v/<version>/` archives do not load analytics.
Umami records page views, including URL query parameters, referral sources, general browser and
device information, approximate location, and selected outbound-link clicks.
The tracker does not set cookies or use a persistent visitor identifier.
Umami uses the request IP address to estimate location but does not store the address.

{/* Evidence: `docs/site/src/components/RegistryHead.astro`, `docsJourneyTargets`, implements the
    selected outbound-link events; `docs/site/src/components/RegistryFooter.astro`, `showFeedback`,
    contains the only other Umami call; neither component assigns a custom visitor identity.
    Umami's official metric definitions document its page, query, referrer, browser, device,
    location, IP-address, and rotating-session behavior in the
    [Umami metric definitions](https://docs.umami.is/docs/metric-definitions). */}

Registry Stack uses these records to understand page use, improve navigation, and prioritize
documentation work.
The analytics records are not sold, used for advertising, or shared with advertising networks.

## Hosting data

Registry Docs is hosted on GitHub Pages.
GitHub processes request and server-log data to deliver and protect the site under the
[GitHub Privacy Statement](https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/privacy-policies/github-general-privacy-statement).

{/* Evidence: `.github/workflows/docs-pages.yml` uploads and deploys the static site through the
    Pages deployment. */}

## Legal basis and retention

Where the General Data Protection Regulation or UK General Data Protection Regulation applies,
Aubex relies on legitimate interests to operate aggregate documentation analytics.
Analytics records remain in the self-hosted Umami database while they are useful for improving
Registry Docs and are removed when they are no longer needed for that purpose.

## Your choices and rights

You can block the analytics script with browser controls or a content blocker without losing access
to the documentation.
Email [contact@registrystack.org](mailto:contact@registrystack.org) to request access to,
correction of, deletion of, or restriction of personal data, or to object to its processing.
Umami analytics are not connected to a name or email address, so Aubex may not be able to identify
records associated with a particular visitor.
You can also complain to the data protection supervisory authority in your country.
