No Data Sales
We do not sell, license, or trade your personal information. The data you share stays with us and is used only to operate the service you signed up for.
Privacy You Can Read
Soteria operates a portfolio of sites built around one principle: collect only what is needed to function, never sell what is collected, and be honest about both.
What We Stand For
Minimum Collection
We collect the least amount of information needed to run each site. If a piece of data is not operationally necessary, we do not ask for it.
No Third-Party Tracking
No advertising networks, no behavioral analytics, no social media pixels. The only analytics we use is self-hosted and anonymous.
Why Some Features Are Missing
Privacy-conscious sites look different from sites built to maximise engagement. Some things you might expect to see are absent by design, not by oversight.
No “Sign in with Google” or social login
Social login buttons are convenient, but every time you use one the platform behind it receives a signal that you visited and logged in. We cannot control what they do with that. We use standard email and password registration instead.
No share buttons
Social sharing widgets are trackers disguised as features. They report page visits back to their networks whether or not you click them. Copying the URL works just as well and shares nothing.
No behavioural analytics
Tools like Google Analytics build detailed profiles of how individual users navigate a site. We use self-hosted, anonymous, page-level analytics only — we know a page was visited, not who visited it.
No advertising
Advertising networks require embedding third-party code that tracks users across the web. Our sites are funded by the services they provide, not by your attention.
No personalisation engine
Recommendation systems require profiling your behaviour over time. We do not profile users. Features that would require profiling to function are not offered.
Why some countries cannot access our sites
Regulations such as the EU’s GDPR, Brazil’s LGPD, and Canada’s PIPEDA require us to collect, store, and produce personal data on request — then delete it with a full audit trail. Complying means holding more data than our standards allow. Blocking access is the honest alternative to fake compliance.
