Apartment Barista is a simple editorial affiliate site. It does not include user accounts, comments, or checkout in the first public version.

Information this site may process

Our hosting provider may process standard technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, such as an IP address, browser type, requested page, and request time.

Optional Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 only after you choose Allow analytics. Before that choice, this site does not load the Google Analytics tag or send analytics data to Google. Declining analytics does not affect your access to the site.

If allowed, Google may process the pages you view, referring source, session activity, browser and device information, approximate location, and outbound link details such as the destination domain and URL. Google Analytics may set first-party cookies named _ga and_ga_* to distinguish browsers and sessions. Google says it uses an IP address to derive approximate location before discarding the IP address from Analytics logging.

We keep advertising storage, advertising user data, Google Signals, and advertising personalization disabled in our tag configuration. We use the data to understand which guides are useful and whether readers choose to follow relevant outbound links. We do not use GA4 as the source of truth for Amazon orders or commissions.

Learn more about how Google processes data on partner sites in Google's business data responsibility guide and privacy policy.

When you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon may receive information about your visit and may use cookies or similar technologies according to Amazon policies.
