Privacy

GalleryKit is a self-hosted photo gallery. This site publishes processed photo derivatives and the public metadata needed to browse them.

Analytics

This site loads Google Analytics to measure visits and interactions; Google may receive request and device information under its own policies. GalleryKit also stores first-party photo, topic, and shared-gallery view events for local analytics — timestamps, bot classification, and country/referrer summaries when available. Full IP addresses and client fingerprints are not stored in these analytics tables. Separate short-lived abuse-prevention buckets may store full IP addresses for rate limiting. View events are retained for VIEW_RETENTION_DAYS (default 395 days).

Photo Metadata

Standard gallery and photo pages exclude GPS coordinates. The public map can show coordinates only for topics an admin explicitly marks as public-GPS visible. Upload settings can strip location data from original files before storage when that privacy option is enabled.

Map Tiles

The public map loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap tile servers. Those providers may receive request details such as your IP address, device/browser information, referrer, and the approximate map area being viewed.
