Site requests and local preferences

GCPLinux is a static publication. It does not provide visitor accounts, a contact form, or new comment submissions. The site search runs in your browser using files served by this website. Search terms may appear in the page URL when you submit a search. The site stores your selected color theme in your browser's local storage so it can remember that preference on later visits.

Cloudflare provides the site's hosting and network security. As part of delivering and protecting requests, Cloudflare may process technical request information such as IP address, browser details, requested URL, and request time under its privacy policy.

Google AdSense and advertising

GCPLinux displays Google AdSense ads on the homepage and article pages. Google and advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers to deliver, personalize, measure, and protect advertising. The technologies and data used can depend on your location, browser settings, and choices in the consent message.

Google explains how it uses information from sites and apps that use its services. You can review or change Google ad personalization through Google Ads Settings. You can also use the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page for participating providers.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the site's Google-certified European regulations message collects and passes consent choices for advertising as configured in the AdSense account.
