Site Information

404onthefloor.com is owned and operated by Taylor Scott from San Jose, California. I am a private citizen and take the protection of your personal data very seriously, which is why I minimize my collection of it.

This policy lays out the way your data is handled, the way it is used and shared, and what is collected about your visits as a data controller.

Data Collection and Usage

By visiting this website, your IP address, time and date of access, and limited information supplied by your browser is available to me progammatically due to the way the Internet works.

In case of abuse (DDOS, automated attacks, etc.), I reserve the right to log abusive traffic for analysis and mitigation purposes only. When I implement this, I will update this page with the length of time I am holding the logs. IP addresses will be anonymized as personally identifiable information (PII).

Email Communication

I consider initiating communication via email as consent for me to reply. If you do not want a reply, please mention this in the email sent. Your data is never sold to others. If you want me to delete our communication, please let me know.

This does not apply to cases where retention of email communication is necessary, e.g. in legal disputes.
