Privacy

Last updated 11 August 2026

This privacy notice explains how I handle information on Voice Bloom, a personal blog run by Nadia at voiceswiftbloom.life. There is no company behind the site — only one author, one address, and no paid accounts to manage.

What this site collects

When you visit, the hosting server may record standard technical logs: IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. I use these logs only to keep the site running and to spot abuse. I do not sell logs or merge them with advertising profiles.

If you email me, I receive your address and whatever you choose to write. That correspondence stays in my personal inbox for as long as the thread remains useful, then I delete or archive it like ordinary mail.

Cookies and similar storage

This site uses a single consent cookie named sg_blog_consent, mirrored in localStorage as cookie_consent_v1, to remember your map preference. Essential storage is required so the banner does not reappear every visit. Functional storage controls whether Google Maps embeds load. Analytics storage exists in the panel for clarity, but no analytics scripts are wired on this site.

Google Maps may set its own cookies when you allow functional content. I do not control those cookies. Read more on the Cookies page, including how to withdraw consent.

Why maps appear on every page

Each page includes a neighbourhood-scale Google Maps frame centred on Bukit Timah / Beauty World, not on my block. Under Reject all, maps are replaced with a placeholder until you press Load map or change preferences. This keeps the layout intact without loading third-party content silently.

Legal basis and PDPA

Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act applies to personal data in my possession. I collect email and log data on the basis of legitimate interest — operating a small personal website and replying to readers. You may ask what I hold about you, request correction, or ask me to delete email threads that are not needed.

Children

This blog is written for general readers and is not directed at children. I do not knowingly collect data from anyone under thirteen.

Links out

If I link to an external site, their privacy rules apply once you leave here. I keep outbound links rare.

Changes

I may update this notice when the site changes. The date at the top will move when I do. Continued reading after an update means you have seen the revised page — though for a personal blog of this size, changes should be infrequent.

The afternoon light on Toh Yi Drive has its own habit of arriving late, slanting across the corridor tiles after the hill has already taken the sun. I notice these small shifts because I live with them — the lift that smells of rain, the tree shade by the car park, the folded receipt I keep inside a notebook on the kitchen table. None of this is news; it is only the texture of an ordinary week above Beauty World, written down before I forget the order of things.
