Privacy & Cookies

Last updated: October 28, 2026

This notice describes the privacy controls and services used on Alisa Sadikova’s website, alisasadikova.com. For privacy questions or requests, email contact@alisasadikova.com.

Your choice comes first

Optional Google Analytics is off until you allow it. Accepting analytics is not required to read the website, view the concert calendar or follow video links. You do not have to “accept” this notice to use the website.

You can also reopen Privacy choices in the footer. Rejecting analytics or turning it off stops future collection by this website’s analytics tag and removes accessible first-party Google Analytics cookies. Withdrawing consent does not automatically delete information already sent to Google.

Storage and analytics

• Privacy preference: the first-party local storage entry alisa-privacy-v1 records your analytics choice, notice version and expiry time in your browser for 180 days. It is not an advertising identifier. If storage is blocked or cleared, you may be asked again.
• Google Analytics 4 (Google): only after permission, the Google tag can collect visited pages, interactions and technical information such as browser, device, referral information and approximate location. Connecting to Google also exposes network information, including your IP address, to Google. This helps us understand website use.
• Analytics cookies: _ga and _ga_* distinguish browsers and visits. This site configures an expiry of up to 180 days without renewal on every visit. Your browser may impose a shorter lifetime. The privacy preference is stored separately from these cookies.

Google Signals and advertising personalization are disabled in this website’s tag configuration. Advertising storage, ad user data and ad personalization consent remain denied. The initial page URL sent by the tag excludes query strings and fragments. Do not send sensitive personal information through URLs.

Google’s processing and retention also depend on the Analytics account settings and Google’s terms. The browser cookie lifetime is separate from retention of information already collected. Learn more in Google’s Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Global Privacy Control and U.S. privacy choices

This website respects a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal by keeping optional analytics off, even when this browser previously allowed it. If GPC is enabled, analytics cannot be enabled through this site’s privacy settings. This setting is applied to visitors from all locations without looking up their location.

This website’s code does not include advertising pixels, targeted advertising integrations or embedded social-media players. Links to other services are described below. If you wish to opt out of optional analytics or any potential sale or sharing associated with that analytics, choose Reject analytics or enable GPC.

Depending on your state of residence, applicable law and whether its requirements apply to the website operator, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information, obtain a copy, opt out of sale, sharing or targeted advertising, or appeal a denied request. Send requests and appeals to contact@alisasadikova.com. We may need information to verify your request; please do not email sensitive identification documents unless specifically requested through an appropriate process. You will not be denied access to the website for declining analytics.

Contact messages and personal information

What we collect and why: when you submit the contact form, this website receives the name, email address and message you provide. We use this information to receive, assess and respond to your enquiry and maintain related correspondence. These fields are required to send the form; if you prefer, you can email contact@alisasadikova.com directly. Please do not submit passwords, payment details, government identification numbers, medical information or other sensitive personal information.

How the message is sent: your browser sends the form to this website’s server. The server sends an email to contact@alisasadikova.com through its PHP mail service. Your email address is included as the reply-to address. The website’s hosting provider, mail delivery infrastructure and the recipient’s email provider process the submission as needed to deliver, secure and store the email. No third-party form platform or CAPTCHA service is used. A successful form response means the server accepted the message for sending; it does not guarantee delivery.

Use and disclosure: submitting the form does not subscribe you to a newsletter or authorize marketing emails. The form does not sell your message or send its contents to advertising services. We may disclose information when required by law or as reasonably necessary to address fraud, security incidents or legal claims. Analytics remains optional and is not required to send an enquiry.

Retention: this form does not create a website database of messages or intentionally write message contents to application logs. Submitted information is processed to compose the email; mail queues, hosting logs and the recipient’s mailbox may retain information under their respective settings. Correspondence is retained for as long as reasonably necessary to handle the enquiry and related communications, or meet applicable legal obligations. Contact us to request deletion or ask about the retention of a particular message; legally required records and copies controlled by service providers may be subject to separate requirements.

Abuse prevention: the server processes your connection IP address to limit repeated submissions. A private temporary record contains a keyed hash of the IP address and attempt timestamps, not your name, email or message. Attempts count toward a one-hour limit; expired records are removed during later submissions and may remain on disk until that cleanup occurs. Hosting and mail providers may keep separate operational or security logs. No additional tracking cookie is set by the form.

Your privacy rights: to ask about, access, correct or request deletion of information sent through the form, email contact@alisasadikova.com. State-law rights depend on your residence and the law’s applicability to the operator. Where applicable, you may use an authorized agent subject to appropriate verification and appeal a denied request using the same contact address. We use information supplied for verification only as needed to handle the request. Declining optional analytics or exercising applicable privacy rights does not prevent you from using the contact form.

External links and service providers

Videos open on YouTube rather than loading a YouTube player here. Facebook and Instagram links open their respective websites. Concert links open the organizer’s website or another linked service. These services receive information when you visit them and apply their own privacy policies; your choices on this website do not control those sites.

Fonts, photos, styles and website scripts are served from this website. No external font service or third-party consent platform is loaded. Hosting and network providers may process routine connection or security logs needed to deliver and protect the website, such as IP addresses, requested URLs and timestamps. Their log settings and retention are managed at the hosting level; contact us for details.

Security, retention and updates

Information is kept for the purposes described here and subject to the relevant provider’s settings and applicable requirements. No internet transmission or storage method is completely secure. You can delete cookies and local storage in your browser and use its tracking protections. Clearing stored preferences causes the privacy choice to appear again.

This notice may be updated when the website or its services change. Material changes to the optional analytics choices will require a new choice through an updated version of the privacy controls.
