Site Policies
This Privacy Policy explains how Darktea Zen handles basic information connected with visits to this site. The site is an independent editorial guide to dark tea culture, brewing, tasting, and storage, and its privacy practices are kept as plain and limited as possible.
Darktea Zen may collect information that readers choose to send, such as a name, email address, or message content when using a contact or support form. The site may also receive routine technical information, such as browser type, device type, referring page, approximate region, pages visited, and time of access.
We do not ask readers to provide sensitive personal details in order to read brewing guides, tasting notes, storage explanations, or site policy pages.
We do not sell personal information. Any use of reader information should stay connected to operating and improving this editorial website.
The site may use cookies or similar technologies for ordinary functions such as remembering preferences, measuring traffic, protecting forms, or improving page performance. Readers can usually adjust cookie settings through their browser. Blocking some cookies may affect certain site functions, but it should not prevent normal reading of public guide pages.
Darktea Zen may link to third-party websites, tools, or services when they help readers understand a tea term, compare a product context, or complete a normal site function. Those third parties may handle data under their own privacy practices. We are not responsible for the privacy policies, content, or data handling of external sites.
This Privacy Policy may be revised when site features, forms, analytics, or service providers change. Updated wording will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after a policy change means the revised policy applies to later visits.
If you have a privacy-related question about Darktea Zen, please use the editorial contact page rather than sending sensitive details through public comments or social channels.
