Privacy Policy for Break LibreOffice Guides

This Privacy Policy describes how Break LibreOffice Guides handles personal data when you use this website. It covers data collected through the contact form, server logs, and any cookies or similar technologies described in the cookie policy. Questions about this policy can be sent through the contact page.

Last updated: 12 November 2026. This page should be read together with the Cookie Policy, which explains the types of cookies used and how to manage them in your browser.

What we collect, and why

Handled plainly, in the order it happens

Responsibility

Who is responsible for this Policy

Break LibreOffice Guides operates this website and is responsible for the personal data processing described here. The site is a guide publisher based in Dublin, Ireland, at 42 Grafton Street, Dublin 2.

This policy applies to visitors who browse the site and to people who send a contact message. It does not cover LibreOffice itself or third-party websites linked from guides, including official LibreOffice resources, which have their own privacy policies.

Contact form

Data collected through the contact form

When you send a contact message, the site collects the information you provide in the form, such as your name or email address if those fields are present, and the message content. That data is used to read, check, and reply to your correction, question, or guide request.

It is not used for unrelated marketing. Providing that information is voluntary, but a reply requires contact details. Please limit messages to the guide topic and the detail needed for a reply, and do not send sensitive personal, financial, or authentication data through the form.

Technical data

Server log data

The website server may record technical data such as IP address, browser type, date and time of access, and the pages visited. That data is used to operate and secure the site, diagnose errors, and understand aggregate usage.

Log data is not used to build a profile of you across other websites. Retention is limited to the period needed for those purposes, after which data is deleted or anonymised where possible.

Use and basis

What the data is used for

Contact data handles your message. Log data keeps the site available. Neither is sold, and neither is used to build advertising profiles on other sites.

Read the Cookie Policy

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies and similar technologies are explained in the cookie policy for this site. Some cookies are needed for the site to function, while others may support measurement or preferences where used. The cookie policy states the types used and how to manage them in your browser. This privacy policy should be read together with that page.

How data is used

Personal data from the contact form is used to handle your message and to update guides where a correction is confirmed. Server log data is used to keep the site available and secure. No personal data from this site is sold. No data is used for advertising profiles on other sites by this site.

Sharing and retention

Who sees it, how long it stays

Sharing with third parties

Contact messages and technical data may be processed by service providers that host the website or deliver the contact form, such as a hosting or email provider. Those providers process data only on instructions needed to provide their service.

This site does not sell personal data. Links to official LibreOffice resources take you to third-party sites with their own privacy policies.

Retention periods

Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to handle the message and to maintain a record of guide corrections. Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and diagnostics.

After those periods, data is deleted or anonymised where possible. If a longer retention is required by law, that requirement will be reflected in an update to this policy.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You may also have the right to data portability where applicable.

To exercise a right, contact us through the contact page with a clear description of your request. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

Security measures

The site uses reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including access controls for hosting and message handling. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be promised.

Please do not send sensitive personal, financial, or authentication data through the contact form. Limit messages to the guide topic and the detail needed for a reply.

Changes to this Policy

This policy may be updated when the site's data practices change. The updated version will be published on this page with the change taking effect from publication unless a different date is stated. Material changes will be described in plain terms so readers can see what is different. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the updated policy.

Contact for privacy requests

Send a privacy request

Privacy requests can be sent through the contact page, addressed to Break LibreOffice Guides. Please state that your message concerns privacy and describe the request clearly. We may ask for information needed to verify your identity before disclosing personal data. That check protects your data as well as the site.
