Privacy

Effective November 7, 2026.

This page explains what personal data FlexPlat handles and why. "We" means Bin Gu (known as Rickey Gu), operating as FlexPlat, Merced #838-A, Oficina 117, Santiago Centro, Santiago, Chile. Questions or requests: [email protected].

1. Our website

modernize.flexplat.com and flexplat.com:

  • use no advertising and no login;
  • use Vercel Web Analytics to count visits. Vercel says it uses no cookies, and that its visitor identifier is a hash that resets daily and isn't kept beyond 24 hours;
  • run on Vercel and Cloudflare, which process technical data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the site.

The video links go to YouTube. Google's privacy policy applies once you're there.

2. Our demo sites

twenty-twenty-five.flexplat.com and storefront.flexplat.com are WordPress sites we run to show Flx at work.

  • Comments and product reviews: if you post one, WordPress stores your name, email address, website if given, your comment, and your IP address and browser, as it does on any WordPress site. Your name and comment are published once approved. Your profile picture may come from Gravatar, an Automattic service.
  • The plugin demo page's contact form is in demo mode: it checks what you type but doesn't send or store it.
  • The store takes no real orders: no payment method is enabled. If you add something to the cart, WooCommerce sets cookies to remember it.

3. When you email us

If you email us, or ask us to convert your site, we keep what you send: your name, address, site details and our conversation. We use it to reply, to assess and build your site, and to keep a simple record of who we've talked to. Mail is handled by Google (Gmail) and Zoho.

4. When we contact you

We sometimes write to developers and agencies about their public work, such as a GitHub issue or an article. We use contact details they've published, and we keep a short record of the name, the channel, what we sent and any reply. Tell us if you don't want to hear from us again, and we'll stop and keep only what we need to remember that.

5. Sites that use a renderer we host

For these sites, the site owner decides what the site does with its visitors' data. We act on the owner's behalf.

What the plugin sends to the renderer, when an anonymous visitor requests a page:

  • the page's public content, including author display names and approved comments with their authors' names;
  • the site's menus and settings needed to draw the page;
  • the visitor's search words, on search pages only;
  • for a WooCommerce store that opts in, its catalogue pages as WooCommerce prints them: product details, prices, stock, and reviews with their authors' names.

What the plugin doesn't send: visitor cookies, IP addresses, user accounts, email addresses, passwords or other query-string values. For a store, nor is the visitor's cart or customer data. A plugin can still print something on a catalogue page that depends on the visitor, such as a currency chosen from their location; that output is part of the page. Logged-in visitors always get normal WordPress.

What visitors' browsers do: a Flx page loads files such as its stylesheet directly from the renderer's address. So our hosting provider, Vercel, can see the visitor's IP address and browser details in ordinary request logs, as with any website file.

Site owners: please mention this in your own privacy policy where your law requires it.

6. Staging copies

To build your renderer, you give us a staging copy of your site. Please remove customer data and other personal data first. We use it only to build, test and support your renderer. To do that:

  • we may run automated tests on GitHub Actions;
  • we use AI coding tools (Anthropic's Claude), which can read the site's code and content.

We delete the staging copy within 30 days after your site goes live or our work on it ends. If you find personal data in a copy you've sent, tell us and we'll delete it.

7. Who else handles data

Vercel (hosting, analytics), Cloudflare (network and security), the server provider that hosts our demo sites, Automattic (Gravatar, on the demo sites), GitHub (code and tests), Google (email), Zoho (email), Anthropic (AI coding tools). We don't sell personal data. These providers may process data outside Chile, including in the United States.

We also share data if the law requires it.

8. How long we keep it

  • Emails and records of your site's build: as long as needed for the conversation or the work, and then up to 2 years, unless the law requires longer.
  • Outreach records: up to 2 years after the last contact.
  • Hosting and analytics logs: as each provider's own settings allow.

9. Your rights

You can ask us to show, correct or delete your personal data, or object to how we use it. Email us and we'll reply within 30 days. Depending on where you live, you may also be able to complain to your data protection authority.

10. Changes

We'll change the date above when we update this page, and we'll email the people whose sites we host about important changes.
