This document exists to be abundantly, exhaustively, and emphatically explicit about one simple and freeing truth: this website does not collect your personal data. We will say that again, in many ways, and at length, because clarity sometimes requires repetition and because, in the world of internet privacy, people have learned to expect the unexpected. Expect nothing here—about data collection. Seriously.
We operate on a single guiding principle: no personal data is requested, solicited, harvested, ingested, processed, stored, or otherwise retained by this site. No forms. No sign-ups. No hidden telemetry. No analytics. No trackers. No devilish little scripts whispering your browsing habits to distant servers. We do not collect your data. We do not process your personal information. We do not retain usage logs for the purpose of profiling, advertising, research, or any other business objective. We literally do not have such data.
To remove all doubt, here is an explicit, somewhat emphatic list of the sorts of information we do not collect:
Cookies—small pieces of data written to your device by some websites—are not used by this site. We also do not use any of the following tracking mechanisms:
In short: nothing is planted in your browser, nothing secretively reports on your browsing, and nothing behind the scenes is counting you, categorising you, or selling you. There is no session storage holding your history. There is no local storage with your preferences. If you clear your browser, nothing of value to you vanishes—because nothing of yours was saved here in the first place.
There are practical, ethical, and user-experience reasons for this choice. Practically, avoiding data collection simplifies operations and reduces security risk: there are no databases filled with user profiles to secure, no data to meaningfully breach. Ethically, we believe users have a right to browse without being logged, measured, or monetized. From a user-experience perspective, we prefer to build a service that respects your attention rather than commodify it.
Typical privacy policies have sections titled "Security" outlining encryption standards, access controls, and retention rules. We will still be explicit here: because we do not hold personal data, there is nothing here to encrypt, nothing to segment, and nothing to restrict access to. We do, of course, keep our underlying server software reasonably patched and maintained—because reasonable care matters even when there's nothing personal to protect.
This site may contain links to other websites or embed content (for example, videos, maps, or social feeds) which are not operated by us. When you follow a link to another site, their privacy practices are theirs. We do not control third parties, and their use of data is not governed by this policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site you visit from here. The only data that might leave your machine as a result of following a link is the basic network traffic required by your browser to load that other site—traffic that is initiated by you and not captured or logged by us for profiling purposes.
If a governmental or legal authority requests information about an individual or an IP address from us, the answer will be factual, short, and unsatisfying to the requester: we do not have any personal data to provide. If you contact us asking for a copy of your personal data, we will respond with the same efficient truth: we have nothing to share because we have collected nothing.
Privacy regulations often create a menu of rights: access, rectification, deletion, portability, objection, and so on. We are happy to report that the exercise of these rights is trivial here because there is nothing to fix, nothing to erase, nothing to port. If you ask us to delete your data, our reply will be: "Done—nothing to delete." If you ask to export your data, our reply will be: "Here is an empty archive."
We do not knowingly collect data from children under the age of 13 (or other applicable minor ages in your jurisdiction) because we do not collect any data period. Child visitors are subject to the same non-collection as adults. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe we somehow have your child's personal information, please contact us; we will investigate, but the most likely finding is that we have no such information.
We retain nothing. There are no retention schedules to list, no archaic backups holding soul-crushingly sensitive personally identifiable information. Logs are not kept for the purpose of tracking humans. Note: like most web servers, ephemeral system logs may be produced at an infrastructure level for short periods for operational troubleshooting (for example, error traces or temporary access logs produced by hosting providers). We take steps to ensure any such ephemeral logs are not used to build profiles and are purged according to our hosting provider's operational policies. But as a practical matter as it pertains to you, the visitor, there is no retained profile or stored personal dataset.
If you are visiting from outside the country in which this site is hosted, welcome. The same rule applies irrespective of borders: we do not collect your data, and therefore protections under any particular law such as GDPR, CCPA, or others are relevant primarily as confirmation that there is no processing to regulate in the first place.
We may update this policy from time to time. If we ever make a material change to how we handle information (for example, by starting to collect certain categories of personal data), we will revise this document and clearly disclose the nature of the change and the date it takes effect. If someday we decide to start collecting data, we will be upfront about what is collected, why it is collected, how it is used, how long it is retained, and how you can exercise control over it. Until that improbable day arrives, this document's core statement stands: we do not collect your data.
We understand skepticism. You have read thousand-word privacy policies that quietly sell you out. So, for the record:
If you have questions about this policy, you may contact the site operator at the address provided on the site. Please note: we will not ask you for identifying information as part of that contact unless you voluntarily provide it in your message content. If you send us an email with personal data in it, we will treat that message as user-supplied content and not as data collected through site operation. If you prefer not to send personal data, do not include it; we will proceed based on what you choose to provide.
One sentence, distilled: This website does not collect, process, store, or share your personal data in any intentional way.
Because repetition can be clarifying, and because trust sometimes needs to be reinforced with patient redundancy: this site chooses not to collect. It chooses not to track. It chooses not to profile. It chooses not to monetize you. If you skimmed, if you scrolled, if you skipped to the bottom because the world moves fast—know that the bottom line is the same as the top line. Nothing is being taken from you here. In matters of data, we opt for absence rather than accumulation.
