Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 17, 2026

At Global Metro Status (accessible from global.metro-status.com), one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document describes how we collect, store, and process information, and confirms our commitment to keeping your experience tracking-free, ad-free, and analytics-free.

If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected].

1. No Ads and No Google Analytics

We believe in a clean, private web experience. Global Metro Status does not run any advertisements, use Google AdSense or any other advertising network, and does not use Google Analytics or other third-party tracking scripts. Your browsing history on our site is entirely private and is never sold, shared, or analyzed for advertising or behavioral tracking.

2. Server and CDN Logs

Like most websites, Global Metro Status utilizes standard hosting and CDN (Content Delivery Network) infrastructure (such as Cloudflare or our hosting provider) which automatically generates access logs. The information collected in these logs includes:

These logs are collected solely for security, DDoS protection, traffic management, and system administration. They are not linked to any personally identifiable information.

3. Cookie Disclosure

We do not use any marketing, advertising, or tracking cookies. The only cookies set by this site are essential, functional session cookies required for the basic operation of the web application (such as storing your language preferences or maintaining secure sessions). Since no tracking cookies are used, no cookie consent banner is legally required under the GDPR or ePrivacy Directive.

4. Data Retention Period

We retain server and CDN access logs only for as long as is necessary to ensure the security and stability of our website. These logs are automatically rotated and permanently deleted within 30 days. We do not store any database records of personal user data, as no registration or user profiling is supported on our platform.

5. GDPR Data Subject Rights & Data Requests

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have rights regarding your personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Specifically, you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data we hold about you.

Note on deletion requests: Because Global Metro Status does not collect, store, or process personal user accounts, names, emails (unless you contact us directly), or behavioral profiles, the only personal data associated with your visits is transiently stored in server logs. These logs automatically expire and are permanently deleted within 30 days. To exercise any data rights or ask questions, you may contact us at [email protected].

6. Children's Information

Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.

Global Metro Status does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.

7. Consent

By using our website, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.
