Privacy policy

Last updated: October 16, 2026

The Space Wiki (thespacewiki.com) is a reference website. We keep data collection to a minimum.

What we collect

• No accounts. The site has no sign-up, login, or comment features, and we do not collect names or email addresses.
• Local preferences. Your theme choice (dark or light) is stored in your browser's local storage and never leaves your device.
• Server logs. Our hosting provider may record standard technical logs (such as IP address and user agent) to operate and secure the service.
• Visit statistics. Our hosting provider's web analytics count page views without cookies. Separately, we count requests from known AI crawlers and visits that arrive from AI assistants, as daily totals per page. Those counts store only the crawler or assistant name, the page and the day, never an IP address, user agent string or referring URL.

Cookies and advertising

The site does not set tracking cookies or serve advertising. If cookie-based analytics or advertising are added in the future, this policy will be updated first and any required consent mechanisms will be put in place.

External links

Articles link to external sources (for example nasa.gov). Those sites have their own privacy practices, which we do not control.
