Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 13, 2026

The Missing Level is a static website. It collects as little about you as a website can, and this page explains exactly what that means.

Who runs this site

The Missing Level is a personal blog operated from Greece, and its author is the data controller for the small amount of data described on this page. For anything related to your data, the quickest route is the contact page.

What is collected

• No accounts. There is nothing to sign up for, so no names, emails, or passwords are stored.
• No cookies without consent. This site sets no cookies unless you agree to analytics through the cookie banner. The full list of what can be set, and when, is in the Cookie Policy.
• Server logs. The hosting provider may keep standard access logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested) for security and operations. These are not used to identify you.

Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics to understand which posts get read and how visitors find them, and it only runs after you accept it in the cookie banner. If you decline, or simply ignore the banner, the Google Analytics code is never loaded and nothing about your visit is sent to Google. What we see is aggregated: page views, countries, referral sources. We never see names, email addresses, or anything that identifies you as a person.

Google processes this data on our behalf and may do so on servers outside the European Economic Area, under the safeguards required by law. You can read how Google handles data in Google's privacy policy.

Third parties

Fonts and other assets are served with the site itself. The only third-party request your browser can make is to Google Analytics, and only after you consent. Links to external sites are subject to those sites' own privacy policies. Some outbound links may be affiliate links, and if you follow one, the destination site may track the visit under its own policy, but nothing extra is collected here.

Your rights

Under data protection laws such as the GDPR, you can access, correct, or delete personal data a site holds about you, object to its processing, and withdraw consent at any time. Here that is simpler than it sounds, because the only personal data in play is what analytics collects with your consent. You can withdraw that consent whenever you like through the "Cookie settings" link in the footer, which also removes the analytics cookies. If you believe this site holds data about you, get in touch and it will be addressed.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. For this site that is the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (dpa.gr), though if you live elsewhere in the EU you can contact the authority in your own country instead.

Changes

Any changes to this policy will appear on this page, with the date at the top updated to match.
