Bench Gate Notes

Privacy

This site gathers nothing about the people who read it. What follows describes the technology in use, not a promise about how data will be handled.

Hosting and Server Requests

Delivery is handled by a hosting platform. Like any web host it processes the technical request data needed to deliver a page, including the requesting address, and retains it briefly for security and operational purposes. That processing sits with the host and is common to essentially all web hosting.

No Sign-In

There is no form, no comment box, no newsletter signup and no account. Without a form or an account there is no channel for personal data to arrive through.

No Analytics

There is no analytics package on this site. Readership is simply unknown here, which is unusual on the modern web and entirely deliberate.

Nothing Is Stored

Browser storage is not used at all, cookies included. There is no state kept between one visit and the next.

Keeping This Accurate

This is a description of a build, so it is revised whenever the build is. A privacy page that has drifted from the site it describes is worse than none, so this one is kept in step.

External Links

Following a link takes a reader somewhere this site does not run. Its own policies govern from the moment the link is followed.
