The Observatory
Privacy policy
Last updated July 2026
What we collect
A session identifier, the items you browse and buy, and the address you give us at checkout. That is it. We use this to run the shop and to show you relevant recommendations.
What we observe
This storefront is heavily instrumented with OpenTelemetry, so every page view, click, and API call produces traces, metrics, and logs. That telemetry exists to demonstrate observability, not to profile you.
What we never do
We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or send you email you did not ask for. Newsletter signups only ever receive what they subscribed to.
Your choices
You can empty your cart and abandon your session at any time, and it expires on its own. Nothing here persists beyond the demo environment.
The Observatory is a demonstration storefront. This policy is part of the demo and does not create any real obligations, mostly because nothing here is real, including the telescopes.
