1. Information We Collect

Analytics Data

If you opt in through our analytics banner, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics may collect:

  • Pages visited and time spent on pages
  • General geographic region (country/city level)
  • Browser type and device category
  • Referring website

We enable IP anonymization for Google Analytics and do not intentionally use it to collect personally identifiable information. Your analytics preference is stored locally in your browser so we can remember whether you accepted or declined analytics. For more on how Google uses data, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Workflow Submission Form

If you use the Submit a Workflow form, we collect the information you voluntarily provide, which may include your name, email address, field of study, and a description of your research workflow. This information is collected via a third-party form provider (Formspree) and is used solely to evaluate and potentially publish your workflow on the Site. We ask submitters not to provide confidential, identifying, or otherwise restricted research material. We will contact you only at the email address you provide, and only in relation to your submission.

Cookies and Local Storage

If you accept analytics, Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. These are analytics cookies only. We do not use advertising, tracking, or social cookies beyond what Google Analytics requires. We also store your analytics consent choice in your browser's local storage so we can honor it on future visits. You can disable cookies in your browser settings or opt out of Google Analytics tracking at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
