Privacy Policy

CircuitStarter collects the answers you give in the beginner electronics project quiz along with any details you send through the contact form, such as your name, email address and message.

We also collect basic, non-identifying usage data — pages viewed, device type and referring site — to understand which prototyping guides and project pages are most useful.

Quiz answers are used to generate your project recommendation, parts list and match strength. Contact details are used only to reply to your message.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for automated decision-making beyond matching you with a suitable beginner project.

We process data on the basis of your consent and our legitimate interest in operating and improving the site. Contact form messages are retained for as long as needed to resolve your enquiry.

Limited data may be handled by service providers who host this site, deliver email or provide analytics. Each is required to protect your information and use it only on our instructions.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete the personal information we hold about you, and to object to certain processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us through the form on the Contact page.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date at the top of this page.
