Who we are

Indoor Food Grower is operated by a private individual based in Cyprus.

Data controller: Stephan Kulik 111 Chlorakas Avenue, Shop 9, Suite 546, 8220 Chloraka, Paphos, Cyprus Email: contact@indoorfoodgrower.com

If you have any questions about how we handle your personal data, you can reach us at contact@indoorfoodgrower.com.


What data we collect and why

1. Analytics data (Google Analytics 4)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use this site — which articles are read, how long readers stay, what devices they use, and how they navigate between pages. GA4 is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

What is collected: Pages visited, time on page, approximate geographic region (country/city level), device type, browser type, referring source, session duration, and similar aggregated usage metrics. GA4 uses a first-party cookie (_ga) and related cookies to distinguish unique visitors across sessions. IP addresses are anonymized before storage.

Legal basis (GDPR): Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). We collect analytics data only after you have accepted cookies via our cookie consent banner. If you decline, no GA4 tracking is activated.

Data processor: Google LLC (a Google Ireland Ltd. subsidiary for EU users). Data may be transferred to the United States under Standard Contractual Clauses. Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Retention: Analytics data is retained in GA4 for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted.

2. Affiliate tracking data

When you click a product link on this site, you are redirected through our affiliate redirect system (/go/{program}/{product}) to the retailer. The retailer’s tracking system then sets its own cookies to attribute your purchase to us if you buy.

Affiliate networks and their processors:

Affiliate networkProcessorCookie duration
Amazon AssociatesAmazon.com, Inc.24 hours
ShareASale (Lettuce Grow)ShareASale.com, Inc.30 days
Impact Radius (Gardyn)Impact Tech, Inc.30 days
Click & Grow (direct)Click & Grow OÜ45 days
AC Infinity (direct)AC Infinity Inc.30 days
Spider Farmer (direct)Shenzhen Budding Commerce Co., Ltd.30 days
Mars Hydro (direct)Shenzhen LG-LED Solutions Limited30 days
LetPot (direct)LetPot Technology Co., Ltd.30 days

Each of these processors operates under their own privacy policy when you visit their website. Clicking an affiliate link means you leave our site and are subject to the retailer’s privacy practices from that point forward. We receive only aggregate commission reports — we do not receive your name, email, address, or payment information from any affiliate network.

Legal basis (GDPR): Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our legitimate interest is receiving attribution for sales we referred. The affiliate redirect itself does not set cookies on our domain; cookies are set only by the destination retailer on their domain.

3. Server logs

Our hosting infrastructure (Cloudflare Workers / Cloudflare Pages) automatically records standard server log data: IP addresses, request timestamps, URLs requested, HTTP status codes, referrer headers, and user-agent strings. These logs are used for security monitoring and diagnosing technical errors.

Legal basis (GDPR): Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our legitimate interest is operating a secure, functioning website.

Retention: Cloudflare retains raw log data for up to 30 days. Cloudflare’s privacy policy: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

4. Data you send us voluntarily

If you contact us by email at contact@indoorfoodgrower.com, we receive your email address and any information you include in your message. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list and we do not share your email with third parties.

Legal basis (GDPR): Contract or pre-contract measures (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) where your inquiry relates to content on our site; or our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in responding to general correspondence.

Retention: Email correspondence is retained for up to 2 years and then deleted.


Cookies

We use cookies for analytics (GA4) and the affiliate networks deposit cookies on their domains when you follow a link. For a full breakdown of cookies used on this site, see our Cookie Policy.

International data transfers

Google Analytics 4 may transfer data to the United States. Google operates under Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission for this purpose. Cloudflare similarly operates under approved transfer mechanisms. We select processors who comply with GDPR transfer requirements.
