Stormfish Scientific Corporation Privacy Policy (Feb 2026)
Our Philosophy
Stormfish Scientific Corporation supports your right to safe and anonymous Internet browsing. To that end, we make no efforts to collect or store any information about our website visitors beyond the data required to provide a modern, reliable web experience and to prevent malicious activity. We aren’t in the business of selling your data; we’re in the business of science and engineering.
What information do we collect?
There are a few basic items we may collect and store when you visit our site:
- Web Traffic Data: Your IP address, access date and time, referring site, and standard browser-shared data (user agent, language, etc.).
- Analytics: We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how our site is used. This uses cookies to collect de-identified data. You can learn how Google handles this here.
- Communications: If you contact us by email, phone call, fax, carrier pigeon, or other preferred means, we collect what you give us. This includes:
- Your name, email, and phone number.
- The body of your correspondence.
- Pigeon Metadata: The color of the pigeon’s eyes, how soft its feathers feel when we pet it gently, and the bird’s favorite snacks and bevys.
- Technical metadata (headers, timestamps, etc.).
Why do we need this?
There are many entities with nefarious objectives. We prefer our website not be compromised or used to harm you, us, or any carrier pigeons. We use collected data to monitor and manage site activity to protect against exploitation.
Additionally, we use this info to provide our products and services. If you call us, you likely want us to use your preferred name and title rather than “fellow human” or the gauche option, “hey you.”
How is your information shared?
- No Sales: We do not sell your information to third parties, nor do we provide it to AI-training “data lakes.”
- Limited Access: Only our employees and subcontractors who have signed non-disclosure agreements and have a legitimate “need to know” have access to your data.
- Legal Necessity: We will only share data with law enforcement if required by a valid subpoena or court order.
How is your information protected?
We utilize various information assurance technologies to protect our systems. These include data-at-rest encryption, data-in-transit encryption (TLS), system isolation, and specialized machine learning tools to detect and block malicious patterns. Your data stays on secure servers, often right here in our own infrastructure.
Your Rights & Data Sovereignty
Regardless of where you live, we respect your right to control your data. You may contact us at any time to:
- Request a copy of the information we have about you.
- Request the deletion of your data (the “Right to be Forgotten”).
- Correct any inaccurate information.
Changes to this Policy
If we change our privacy practices, we will post a notice here. If we ever decide to change the brand of snacks we provide the pigeons, we will likely keep that internal.
