Data we collect
We collect minimal data:
- Analytics (only with your consent): If you accept cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymised usage data — pages visited, time on site, country, device type. This data is aggregated and never used to identify you personally.
- Species suggestions: If you submit a species suggestion via our form, the text you enter is sent to Formspree (formspree.io) and forwarded to our email. We receive only the species name — no personal data unless you voluntarily include it.
- Local storage: We store your cookie preference and suggestion count in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device.
Cookies
We use two types of cookies/storage:
- Essential (no consent required): localStorage keys for cookie preference (
aq_consent) and suggestion count (aqm_suggest_count). These are necessary for the site to work correctly. - Analytics (consent required): Google Analytics 4 cookies (
_ga,_ga_03QX35NF7F). Only set if you click "Accept". If you click "Essential only", GA4 runs in cookieless mode and only receives anonymous, aggregated signals.
You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage for aquapacity.com.
Third-party services

Your rights (GDPR)
If you are based in the EU/EEA, you have the right to access, correct or delete any personal data we hold about you. Since we collect virtually no personal data, this mainly applies to any species suggestion you may have submitted. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
Data retention
Google Analytics data is retained for 14 months (GA4 default). Species suggestions received by email are deleted when no longer needed. Browser localStorage data is stored locally until you clear it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy occasionally. The date at the top of this page reflects the latest revision. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
