Privacy Policy

How Gourlax collects, uses, and protects your information — explained in plain language.

Last updated: January 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Gourlax ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit gourlax.com (the "Site"). We are committed to handling your data responsibly and transparently. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Who is responsible for your data. Gourlax is published and operated by MOODLR DESENVOLVIMENTO DIGITAL LTDA (trading as Moodlr Dev Hub), CNPJ 22.136.919/0001-40, located at Rua Calixto Machado, 21 — Pires Façanha, Eusébio, CE, Brazil — CEP 61775-060. This company is the controller responsible for personal information processed through the Site. You can reach us at hello@gourlax.com.

1. Information we collect

We collect two broad categories of information:

  • Information you give us. When you contact us or subscribe to our newsletter, you may provide your name and email address. We only use this to respond to you or to send the emails you requested.
  • Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and third-party tools automatically receive standard log data such as your browser type, device, approximate location (derived from your IP address), referring pages, and how you interact with the Site. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them to remember your preferences (such as light or dark mode), to understand how the Site is used, and to support advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so may affect some features of the Site.

Your consent choices. When you first visit, a consent banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies, including those used for advertising and measurement. We use Google Consent Mode, which defaults to a non-personalised, no-advertising-cookie state — personalised advertising and ad cookies are only enabled after you accept. You can change your decision at any time by choosing Cookie preferences in the footer. For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, personalised advertising consent is or will be managed through a Google-certified consent management platform (IAB TCF v2.2), and you can withdraw it using the same control.

3. Advertising and third-party vendors

We display advertising to keep Gourlax free to read. To do this we work with third-party advertising partners, which may include Google and its advertising products (such as Google AdSense and Google Ad Manager).

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info or Your Online Choices.

Third-party advertising networks and vendors have their own privacy policies that govern their collection and use of information. We encourage you to review Google's privacy and terms page to understand how data is handled.

U.S. state privacy rights ("Do Not Sell or Share"). If you live in California or another U.S. state with applicable privacy laws, you have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as those terms are defined by law. We do not sell your personal information for money; however, the use of advertising cookies may be treated as "sharing" under some laws. You can exercise this choice using the Cookie preferences control or the opt-out links above.

4. Analytics

We may use privacy-conscious analytics tools to understand which articles are helpful and how to improve the Site. These tools report aggregated trends — such as page views and popular content — and are not used to personally identify you.

5. How we use information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
  • To respond to your messages and deliver newsletters you have requested.
  • To measure the performance of our content and advertising.
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse.

We do not sell your personal information.

6. Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These can include the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@gourlax.com and we will respond as required by law.

You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any email we send.

7. Data retention and security

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes described here, and we use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect it. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us and we will delete it.

9. International visitors

Gourlax is operated for a global audience. If you access the Site from outside the country where our service providers are located, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in another country.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Significant changes will be highlighted on this page. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
