This Privacy Policy explains what information Aqua Planet (aquaplanet.me) collects, how it’s used, and the choices you have. Aqua Planet is a planted tank and freshwater aquarium blog run by Anum Saeed. If you have any questions, you can reach us through our contact page.
Information we collect
Information you give us. If you send a message through our contact form or leave a comment, we receive the details you enter, such as your name, email address and message. We use this only to reply to you or display your comment.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our server and service providers automatically log basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, the page that referred you, and the date and time of your visit. This is used to keep the site secure, fix problems and understand which content is useful.
Calculators. Our aquarium calculators (volume, stocking, water change, fertilizer and CO2) run entirely in your browser. The numbers you enter are not sent to us or stored.
Cookies

- Remember basic preferences
- Measure traffic and how visitors use the site
- Show advertising, including personalized ads where allowed
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may not work properly without them.
Advertising
Aqua Planet may show ads served by Google AdSense and other advertising partners. These third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.

We may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Google Search Console to understand how visitors find and use the site. These tools collect information such as pages visited, time on site and general location. The data is used in aggregate to improve our content.
Affiliate links
Some pages contain affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, the retailer may use cookies to record the referral, and we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. See our Disclosure page for details.
Embedded content
Posts may include embedded content such as YouTube videos from our AQUA PLANET 128 channel. Embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the other website directly, and those websites may collect data about you, use cookies and track your interaction with the embedded content.
Service providers
We use trusted third-party services to run the site, including web hosting, Cloudflare for security and performance, caching tools, and Google services. These providers may process technical data on our behalf only as needed to provide their services.
How we use information

- To reply to messages and moderate comments
- To understand which content is helpful and improve it
- To show advertising and earn affiliate commissions that keep the site free
We do not sell your personal information.
How long we keep information
We keep contact messages and comments only as long as needed to respond or for as long as a comment stays published. Technical logs and analytics data are kept for limited periods set by our service providers.

Depending on where you live, including the European Union, the United Kingdom and some US states such as California, you may have the right to:
- Ask what personal information we hold about you
