Privacy Policy

Who We Are

This website, pinknoisesleep.com ("Pink Noise Sleep," "we," "us," or "our"), is an independent editorial project focused on the science of colored noise for sleep, focus, and relaxation. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle data when you visit our site.

What Data We Collect

Pink Noise Sleep is a static website. We do not use our own cookies, and we do not store personal data on our servers. However, third-party services integrated into the site may collect certain information as described below.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site — which pages are visited, how long sessions last, and what countries our traffic comes from. GA4 uses cookies set by Google to collect this data. The information is aggregated and anonymized; we do not use it to identify individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Netlify Forms

Our newsletter signup and contact forms are processed by Netlify, our hosting provider. When you submit a form, the data you enter (your email address and any message content) is stored securely by Netlify. We use this information solely to send you the newsletter you subscribed to or to respond to your inquiry. We do not sell, share, or transfer your email address to any third party. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link included in every email. For details on how Netlify handles data, see Netlify's Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Embeds

Some pages on this site include embedded content from third-party platforms. These embeds may set their own cookies and collect data according to their own privacy policies. The third-party services we embed include:

Spotify. We embed Spotify players to let you preview albums and tracks. When a Spotify embed loads, Spotify may collect data about your interaction with the player. See Spotify's Privacy Policy.

YouTube. We embed YouTube videos using the privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), which limits tracking. However, YouTube may still collect some data when the embedded player is loaded. See Google's Privacy Policy.

Google Fonts. We load typefaces from Google Fonts. When the fonts are requested, Google may log your IP address. See Google Fonts Privacy FAQ.

Cookies

Pink Noise Sleep does not set any first-party cookies. The cookies present on this site are set by the third-party services described above (Google Analytics, Spotify, YouTube). You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings at any time.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data we hold about you. You also have the right to restrict or object to certain data processing, and the right to data portability. Since we collect minimal data and do not maintain user accounts, the most relevant right for most visitors is the ability to opt out of Google Analytics tracking and to manage cookies via browser settings.

To exercise any of these rights or to ask a question about your data, please contact us through our contact page.

Children's Privacy

Pink Noise Sleep is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal data through our forms, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle data.
