Information Collection

Virtual Lab Rack collects standard web analytics data when you visit our site. This includes IP addresses, browser type and version, device information, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referral sources. We collect this data through server logs and analytics services.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies to improve site functionality and analyse traffic patterns. Google Analytics cookies help us understand which IT topics generate the most interest, how readers find our content, and which guides are most useful. These cookies collect aggregated, anonymised data. You can block cookies via your browser settings without affecting your ability to read our articles.

Personal Data

We do not require accounts or registration. If you contact us by email, we retain your message and email address only for the purpose of responding. We do not add contacts to marketing lists without explicit consent.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, lease, or share personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics data may be reviewed internally to guide our editorial direction.

Security

As an IT-focused publication, we take data security seriously. Our site is served over HTTPS with modern TLS configuration. Server access is restricted and monitored. We follow the same security practices we recommend in our articles.

Third-Party Links

Our articles frequently reference and link to software vendors, cloud providers, and IT tool websites. These sites operate under their own privacy policies.

Your Rights

Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to access and correct any personal information we hold. Contact hello@virtuallabrack.com for privacy-related requests.
