Information we collect

Short version

• We use cookies in our login mechanism. You won't be able to login on garage.wiki without cookies, but you can use garage.wiki as a guest without any limitations.
• If you sign up with us we take great care to keep your information safe and we’ll never share it with others without your express permission.
• We never share your data with 3rd parties except to help us deliver our own services.
• We collect anonymous statistics about your visit, like which of our pages you viewed.
• Some 3rd parties like Facebook and Twitter may know you visited this website, if you use their services. We can’t control them but we don’t believe this knowledge poses any threat to you.
• We use Google AdSense to serve ads on garage.wiki. Google uses cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant ads.

Cookies and similar technologies

Garage.wiki uses cookies and similar technologies, such as HTML5 web storage and local shared objects (all referred to as “cookies” below), to record the preferences of users.

By using our website, you consent to the use and storage of cookies on your end device. However, you can also view our website without cookies, but you won't be able to login into your account on garage.wiki in this case.

Most browsers accept cookies automatically. You can prevent cookies from being saved on your end device by setting your browser to not accept cookies. You can delete cookies stored on your end device at any time. The exact instructions for how to do this can be found in the manual for your browser or end device.

Measuring our visitors

We measure visitors to our website using Google Analytics. This records what pages you view within our site, how you arrived at our site and some basic information about your computer. All of that information is anonymous — so we don’t know who you are; just that somebody visited our site.

The information we collect from analytics helps us understand what parts of our sites are doing well, how people arrive at our site and so on. Like most websites, we use this information to make our website better.

You can learn more about Google Analytics or opt out if you wish.

Facebook, Twitter and other social networks

These services provide social buttons and similar features which we use on our website — such as the “Like” and “Tweet” buttons.

To do so we embed code that they provide and we do not control ourselves. To function their buttons generally know if you’re logged in; for example Facebook use this to say “x of your friends like this”. We do not have any access to that information, nor can we control how those networks use it.

Social networks therefore could know that you’re viewing this website, if you use their services (that isn’t to say they do, but their policies may change). As our website is remarkably inoffensive we imagine this is not a concern for most users.

Ads

We use Google AdSense to serve ads on garage.wiki. Google uses cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant ads. Google also shares some of data with other ad technology providers.

To learn more about Google AdSense and opt your data out please visit these pages: Google ad and content network privacy policy and how Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
