Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-04-23
This website (gdg-pgh.com) is operated by MediaWow Partners on behalf of the Google Developer Group Pittsburgh chapter. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site, how that information is used, and the choices you have.
Information we collect automatically
When you visit this site, our hosting provider and content delivery network automatically logs basic information about the request, including:
- Your IP address (used to route the response and to identify abusive traffic)
- Browser user agent string (for compatibility diagnostics)
- The page you requested and the time of the request
- Referrer URL, if any
These logs are retained for a short period for operational security purposes and are not used for advertising or sold to third parties.
Cookies
This site does not set first-party cookies for tracking, analytics, or advertising purposes. Our content delivery network may set transient cookies that are strictly necessary for security (for example, to mitigate bot traffic). You can disable cookies in your browser without losing access to any public content on this site.
Third-party links
This site links to external services operated by third parties, including the official GDG Community page, GitHub, LinkedIn, YouTube, and others. When you click a link to a third-party service, that service has its own privacy policy that governs what it collects and how it uses that information. We encourage you to review the privacy practices of any third-party service you visit.
Email contact
If you email us at gdg.pittsburgh@gmail.com, we will use your email address and the contents of your message only to respond to your inquiry. We do not add email contacts to marketing lists without explicit consent.
Your choices and rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding personal data we hold about you, including the right to access, correct, or delete that data. Since this site does not maintain accounts or persistent identifiers, the only personal data we typically hold is the content of an email you send us. To request deletion of an email you have sent us, contact gdg.pittsburgh@gmail.com.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to this policy
As this site evolves, we may update this Privacy Policy. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be noted on the home page.
