Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 28, 2026

Hookaria ("we", "us", "our") runs the website at hookaria.com (the "Site"). This policy explains what information we collect when you use the Site, why we collect it, and the choices you have. We keep things simple: we collect as little as possible and never sell your data.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us

• Newsletter: if you subscribe, we store your email address so we can send you new patterns and occasional updates.
• Contact form: if you message us, we store the name, email address and message you submit so we can read and reply to it.

You can browse and use every pattern on the Site without giving us any personal information.

Information collected automatically

The Site is hosted on Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical request data — such as your IP address, browser type, device information and the pages you request — to deliver the Site, keep it fast and protect it from abuse and attacks. We do not use this data to identify or profile you.

2. Cookies and tracking

The Site does not use advertising cookies, analytics trackers or social-media tracking pixels. Cloudflare may set strictly necessary security cookies to protect the Site from bots and malicious traffic. These don't track you across other websites.

3. Third-party services

• Cloudflare — hosting, database and security. Cloudflare's privacy policy.
• Google Fonts — the Site loads its typefaces from Google, which receives your IP address when the fonts are downloaded. Google's privacy policy.

If we add other services in the future (for example, analytics or ads), we'll update this page first.

4. How we use your information

• To send the newsletter you signed up for.
• To read and respond to your messages.
• To keep the Site running, secure and free of spam.

We never sell, rent or trade your personal information.

5. How long we keep it

• Newsletter emails: until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove you.
• Contact messages: only as long as needed to answer you and handle any follow-up.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR in the EU/UK or privacy laws in other countries), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal information, to object to its use, or to withdraw your consent at any time. To do any of this — including unsubscribing from the newsletter — just send us a request through the contact page. We'll respond within 30 days.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical measures to protect your information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections and restricted access to our database. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to keep your data safe.

8. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us their information, please contact us and we'll delete it.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be highlighted on the Site.
