Last updated: October 23, 2026

Welcome to SpaceInfo (spaceinfo.org). Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using spaceinfo.org, you agree to the practices described below. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the website.

1. Who We Are

SpaceInfo is an educational website that publishes articles about space, astronomy, planets, space missions, and science. In this policy, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to SpaceInfo and its owner. “You” refers to any visitor or user of the website. If you have questions about this policy, you can contact us at ok6549538@gmail.com.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways: information you give us directly, and information collected automatically when you browse the site.

2.1 Information You Provide

  • Contact form and email: When you contact us, we receive your name, email address, and the content of your message.
  • Comments: If you leave a comment on a post, we store the name, email address, website (if provided), and the comment text you submit.
  • Newsletter or subscriptions: If we offer a mailing list and you sign up, we collect your email address so we can send you updates.

We only collect personal information that you choose to share with us. You are never required to provide personal details just to read our content.

When you visit spaceinfo.org, our servers and third-party tools may automatically record:

  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages you visit and the time spent on them
  • The website that referred you to us

This data is generally collected in aggregate and is used to understand how visitors use the site, not to identify you personally.
