Privacy when using Local Manual

A practical explanation of data and choices

Local Manual is operated by Dominik Łasiński. This page explains the site’s anonymous self-hosted analytics and logs, browser preferences and third-party advertising technology, as well as the information you share if you email us.

01 / Questions about this site

Who operates Local Manual

Dominik Łasiński operates Local Manual. You can use the Contact page to raise a question about privacy or information you have shared. Please describe the issue without including identity documents, passwords or unnecessary personal details. Official services linked from guides are operated separately from Local Manual.

02 / Self-hosted usage and performance information

Anonymous analytics and logs

Local Manual uses self-hosted analytics and logs configured to be anonymous. These help understand site use and technical performance. This describes the site’s own analytics and logging setup; it does not mean that Google advertising services or external websites process all information anonymously.

03 / Light and dark appearance

Your browser can remember a display preference

If you choose a light or dark theme, the site saves that preference in your browser so it can be used on later visits. You can remove it by clearing the site’s browser storage. Clearing a display preference is separate from changing your advertising consent or privacy choices.

04 / Cookies, identifiers and measurement

Google advertising has separate data practices

Local Manual includes Google advertising technology. Google and advertising partners may use cookies or other identifiers to serve and measure ads, including personalised ads where permitted. Processing depends on the services used, your choices and applicable requirements. Google’s information for partner sites explains how it uses data from websites that use its services.

05 / No newsletter or email-marketing flow

Email is optional and initiated by you

Local Manual does not offer a newsletter or run an email-marketing flow. If you choose to email the contact address, your email provider sends your address, message and any attachments to the recipient’s email provider. Include only what is needed to explain your question or report; avoid sensitive documents and private case details.

06 / Site controls and external websites

Where to review your privacy choices

Use the advertising privacy controls shown on the site to review the choices available to you. Google also explains its advertising controls and data practices in its privacy information. When you follow a link to an official service or another website, that organisation’s own privacy information applies. Direct questions about Local Manual to the Contact page.
