Nerdicate – Transparency & Data Respect
This Privacy Policy explains how Nerdicate („we”, „our”, „us”) handles data when you visit our website. We operate as a non-commercial, community-driven project and do not sell services or collect personal data directly.
1. 🧾 Who We Are
Nerdicate is a passion project run by individuals, not a company. We do not sell services or collect payment data. Merch links direct you to external platforms like Spreadshirt or TeePublic, who handle orders and transactions independently.

We do not use Google Ads or any marketing trackers.
3. 🎥 Embedded Content
Our website may include embedded content (e.g. videos from YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram). These platforms may collect data through cookies as if you were visiting them directly. This includes:
- IP address
- Device info

We recommend reviewing their privacy policies for details.
4. 🍪 Cookies
We use only essential cookies and cookies related to Google Analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings. No marketing or profiling cookies are used.
5. 👤 Personal Data
