Privacy policy.

## Cookies and analytics

To count visits the site uses Yandex Metrica — only if you press “Accept all” in the cookie notice.

You can change your choice at any time via “Cookie settings” at the bottom of the page.

## Contact form

The About page has a request form. The name, contact, company, topic and message you enter are forwarded to Mikhail on Telegram via a bot. The site does not store requests.

By sending the form you agree to the processing of this data so that Mikhail can reply to your request.

The sender’s IP address is kept briefly in server memory to limit how often the form can be sent and to block spam; it is not written to a database.

Bot protection uses no third-party services or cookies: before sending, your browser solves a small computational puzzle.

## BBNews bot

If you subscribe to the BBNews digest in the Telegram bot @bbox_news_bot, the site’s server stores your chat id with the bot, the chosen language, the subscription date and the date of the last digest sent. Your name, username, phone number and message texts are not stored.

This data is used only for the daily digest and is not shared with anyone. The /stop command or blocking the bot deletes the record completely; it disappears from database backups within 7 days.

## Third-party services

Video covers are loaded from YouTube servers. Links lead to YouTube, Telegram, LinkedIn and Instagram, which have their own data policies.
