Rehoboth Builds

Privacy — this website

This page is about rehobothbuilds.com itself: the pages you are reading, the forms on them, and the checkout. Each extension ships its own policy, linked at the bottom of this page — those describe the extension, not this site.

The short version

  • No cookies, no analytics script, no advertising or tracking pixels, on any page of this site.
  • We count that a page was requested: the date and the path. Nothing that identifies you.
  • If you give us an email address, we keep it on purpose — it is how we tell you when a thing you asked about ships. Reply stop to any of it and you are off the same day.
  • If you pay, Stripe takes the payment. We never see your card number.
  • We do not sell, rent or share any of it.

What is recorded when you read a page

For some of our pages our own server writes one line: the date, the path, and whether the request looked like a browser, an AI assistant fetching the page for someone, a search-engine or AI crawler, or a script. When an assistant or crawler announces itself by one of a short, fixed list of well-known names, the line carries that name as well. This is the whole list: googlebot, bingbot, applebot, oai-searchbot, gptbot, chatgpt-user, claude-searchbot, claudebot, claude-code, claude-user, perplexitybot, perplexity-user, duckassistbot, meta-externalagent, meta-externalfetcher, ccbot, amazonbot. A browser never gets a name, and nothing else from the request is kept: no cookie, no IP address, no identifier, and not the rest of the user-agent string. The lines cannot be joined to one another, so what we can see is how many times a page was requested on a given day and by which of those kinds of reader, and nothing else about who did it.

A few pages also send us one extra request of their own once the page has loaded, and that request is nothing but a path. On a product page it says which of two words applies to your browser — speech if your browser has a built-in read-aloud engine at all, nospeech if it does not, followed, when you arrived through one of our own links, by the short name of that link (for example speech-from-home), which says which of our pages sent you and nothing about you — on the hreflang tag builder, the Etsy fee calculator and each of the technical write-ups it is the single word js, which says nothing except that a browser ran the page at all; on the website translation page it is that same word, followed by the short name of our own link you followed to get there when you arrived by one (for example js-from-home), which says which of our pages sent you and nothing about you, and on the tools below it says which of a similarly short fixed list applies — on the Etsy listing translator followed, in that same way, by the short name of our own link you followed when you arrived by one (for example available-from-home). That is the whole payload: no content, no answer you produced, no identifier, nothing read out of your browser's storage. We do it because a page request on its own does not tell us whether a real browser opened the page or a script fetched the file, and we would rather count the first honestly than flatter ourselves with the second. You can see the whole of it in your browser's network inspector, and blocking it costs you nothing on the page.

The buttons that take you to checkout do the same thing when you press them: the button sends one request of that kind first, saying only which button was pressed on that page — on the website translation page that is which of the two sizes. The one button on the hreflang tag builder that leads to a price does the same, and the word it sends is bridge. It carries no name, no email address and nothing you typed. We do it because the checkout itself lives on Stripe's site, so from our side a link that a script followed and a person who actually decided to buy look identical, and we would rather not count the first as the second.

The site is served through a CDN. Like every CDN, and as a necessary part of routing your request, it sees the connection itself — including your IP address — and keeps its own short-term traffic statistics. We read only the daily totals from it. We do not store IP addresses and we do not build a profile of a visitor.

The tools you can use here without installing anything

The voice test, the hreflang tag builder and the Etsy listing translator all run entirely in your browser. The text you paste, the voices your computer has, the tags or translations that come out — none of it is sent to us or to anyone else. The page itself is counted as described above, and on the voice page, the hreflang tag builder and the Etsy listing translator the fact that a button was pressed is counted the same way: that it was pressed, never what it produced. On the tag builder the button counted that way is only the one that leads to a price — pressing Generate the tags or Copy sends nothing at all, and neither does the address you typed into the box. On the Etsy listing translator two are counted that way: the button that leads to a price, and translating — and translating sends only which language and the date, never the listing you pasted or anything that came out.

Running in your browser does mean that one of them writes in your browser. The Etsy listing translator keeps a few things in this site's storage, on that browser only, and sends none of them anywhere: whether you have unlocked the paid version, the code you unlocked with, and, while you are on the free try, which language you picked today and a short fingerprint of the listing you translated. The fingerprint is a length and a number worked out from your text, not the text itself; it is there so that one listing a day means one listing. Clearing this site's data in your browser removes all of it, including the unlock — the code puts it back. The other two tools write nothing.

Email addresses

An address reaches us only when you type it into a form on this site — the checklist form, the one under the five shortcuts on the Keyboard Shortcuts page, or a wait-list form on a product page. We keep it on purpose, and here is the purpose: when we ship something you said you were waiting for, we send one short note about it. That is the whole use. There is no schedule, no digest and no drip sequence, and we do not write to you about anything else.

We store the address, the date, which form it came from, and, if that form asked one multiple-choice question and you answered it, the answer you picked. Nothing else — no behaviour, no profile, nothing bought from anyone. It is not shared and not sold, and you are not added to any other list.

Reply with the word stop to anything you receive and the address is gone the same day. You can also write to support@rehobothbuilds.com at any time and ask us to delete it, without giving a reason.

Links that carry a source code

Some links to our own pages carry a short code — /p/tts-reader/from/home, for instance — so that we can tell which page sent you. It is a code for the page, not for you: it travels in the address bar, never in a cookie, and anything that is not on a fixed list we wrote ourselves is discarded. If you go on to pay, that code is attached to the payment, so we know which page the sale came from.

Paying

Payment happens on Stripe's own checkout pages. We never see and never store your card details. From Stripe we see what it shows any seller: the email address you gave it, the amount and currency, the country the payment came from, and the source code above if there was one. Stripe handles that data under its own privacy policy.

If you order the website translation service

That one is work we do for you, so you will send us the address of your site and whatever a translation job needs — pages, copy, and how you want to be reached. We keep what you send for as long as the job runs and for our own records afterwards, we use it for your job and nothing else, and you can ask us to delete it when the job is done.

The extensions

Each extension has its own policy, and each is specific to that extension rather than to this site:
