1A collects very little. The site has no user accounts, no forms, no comments, no analytics scripts and no advertising. What is collected is limited to standard server logs, one entry in your browser's local storage for the age check, and the request your browser makes to load fonts.
Server logs
Like almost every website, the server records basic request data: IP address, date and time, the page requested, the referring page, and your browser's user agent string. These logs are used only for security, to diagnose errors and to block abusive traffic. They are not used to build profiles, are not combined with other data and are not sold or shared, except where the law requires it. Logs are kept only as long as they are needed for those purposes.
Age check storage
When you confirm you are 18 or over, the site stores a single value, 1a_age_ok, in your browser's local storage so the age check does not appear on every page. It contains no personal information and is never sent to our server. You can remove it by clearing site data in your browser, and the age check will appear again on your next visit.
Cookies
The site itself sets no cookies.
Third-party requests
Pages load the Poppins typeface from Google Fonts. To deliver the font, your browser connects to Google's servers, which receive your IP address and user agent as part of that request. Google's handling of that data is covered by Google's own privacy policy. No other third-party scripts run on the site.
Links to outside sites, such as retailers, brands, health organizations or LinkedIn, take you to services with their own privacy policies. We do not control what they collect.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, laws such as the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and the EU General Data Protection Regulation give you the right to ask what personal information is held about you, to request a correction, and to request deletion. Since the only personal data we hold is in short-lived server logs, requests are usually simple. You can send one through the contact route on the Melissa Blake page.
Children
The site is for adults only. We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone under 18.
Changes
If what the site collects changes, for example if analytics are added, this page will be updated before that change goes live.
