PRIVACY
IN PLAIN WORDS.
A clear explanation of Store Check answers, optional activity events and contact preferences.
About this site
MACHO operates this independent Shopify development website. If you have privacy questions, contact [email protected].
Your Store Check answers
The Store Check uses the answers you enter in your own browser to generate a preliminary report. We do not automatically transmit your sales estimate, traffic estimate, store URL, or form responses to our activity feed. When you choose to proceed to an enquiry, your report may temporarily be transferred through your browser's session storage to prepare the message. You must explicitly select whether to include it in the enquiry. Session storage is ordinarily cleared when that browser session ends.
Optional activity alerts
We ask permission before enabling our own visitor-activity feature. If you agree, the website sends anonymous event information such as pages viewed, approximate visit length, scroll progress, Store Check steps started/completed and clicks to WhatsApp or email. These events use a randomly generated session identifier, a short visit identifier, device category, an approximate country provided by our hosting platform, the page path without its query string, and the event time. We do not include typed names, email addresses, phone numbers, full referral URLs, or your answers about store revenue.
If you allow activity tracking, we remember your choice and a pseudonymous marker for recognizing repeat visits in your browser. We keep recent event records in a protected Cloudflare KV store, when configured, for up to seven days; alerts may be sent to the site's owner through Telegram, if configured. Activity messages are not proof that someone became a customer. Declining tracking will not prevent you from using the website or Store Check. Select Activity preferences at the page footer to reconsider your choice.
Hosting and third-party services
Cloudflare serves the website and may process standard network and security logs. Some animation assets can be delivered by CDN providers. The optional 3D shopping bag uses Sketchfab, which may receive technical requests when the viewer loads. WhatsApp, email services and Sketchfab apply their own privacy policies. Please avoid sharing financial statements or customer records through public forms or links.
Contact and project enquiries
The contact form currently prepares a message rather than sending it automatically. You choose when to open WhatsApp or your email program. Those services handle any contact details and message content you choose to send. No website visitor-activity record contains the body of that message.
Data questions
You can ask how your information is used by emailing [email protected]. This notice will be updated if a fuller lead database, analytics provider or direct form submission is added.
