Effective date: 2 November 2026. This policy covers the independent archive at sonoelements.com. It does not describe how the original Sono Elements site handled data in 2018–2020. That site had its own policy (effective 24 May 2018, captured by Common Crawl in May 2020), written for a shop with customer accounts and a newsletter. It no longer applies to anything on this domain.
What this site does not do
- It sets no cookies and uses no local storage.
- It runs no analytics, advertising or tracking scripts.
- It has no accounts, comment forms, newsletters or shop.
- Fonts and images are served from this site, not from third-party networks.
- The site search runs entirely in your browser. Your search terms are not sent anywhere.
Server logs
Like any website, the server that delivers these pages may record standard request details: IP address, date and time, the page requested, the referring page and your browser’s user-agent string. These logs are used only to keep the site working and secure, are not combined with other data and are not used to profile visitors. They are kept no longer than needed for those purposes.
Audio players from other services
Product pages offer audio demos hosted by SoundCloud or the Internet Archive. Nothing is loaded from those services until you click the play button. Once you do, your browser connects to that service, which may set its own cookies and collect data under its own policy:
Links to other sites
Pages link to press articles, the Wayback Machine, the Internet Archive and other sites. Their privacy practices are their own.
Sharing buttons
The share links under each article are plain links. They send nothing to social networks unless you click one, and then only the page address and title, to the service you chose.
If you write to this archive, your message and address are used only to reply and to make any correction you report. They are not shared or added to any mailing list.
The developer’s old support address printed in the product manuals is on this domain, but the developer no longer controls it. Please do not send licence keys, order numbers or payment details to it. See the contact page.
Your rights
Because this site does not collect personal data beyond standard server logs and any email you choose to send, there is little to access or delete. If you want an email you sent to be deleted, ask through the contact page.
Changes
If this policy changes, the effective date at the top will be updated.
