Privacy

What this site collects

No accounts or advertising. Aggregate analytics tell us how the site is used; hosting providers also process connection data to deliver and protect it.

The short version

Analytics

The site uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to count page views. It is cookieless: it sets no cookie, uses no local storage, and does not build a fingerprint or a cross-site identifier. It cannot follow you from here to anywhere else, and it cannot recognise you if you come back.

What it records, in aggregate:

RecordedNot recorded
Which page was loaded Your IP address in Web Analytics reports
Referrer, if your browser sent one Any identifier that persists between visits
Country, browser and device type, coarsely Anything you typed, clicked or scrolled past
Rough page performance timings Anything linking this visit to another site

If you block the analytics script, the site works exactly the same. It is one file, it runs after the page, and nothing on the page depends on it.

Hosting

The site is static files hosted by Vercel, with DNS and a proxy provided by Cloudflare. Requests pass through these providers, which process connection data such as IP addresses and may retain operational logs to deliver the site and prevent abuse. This is separate from the aggregate Web Analytics described above.

Provider handling and retention are described in the Vercel privacy policy and Cloudflare privacy policy.

Links out

This site links to YouTube, GitHub, the App Store and the projects themselves. Those places have their own privacy practices and most of them do set cookies. Following a link means their rules apply, not these. Nothing is embedded here — there is no YouTube player, no tracking pixel, and no third-party iframe on any page, so simply reading this site does not contact any of them.

Children

Pipedia is a channel for children, and this site links to it. This site itself is written for adults who build things. It has no registration or submission forms for children. The analytics and hosting processes described above apply when anyone visits.

Changes

If what this site collects ever changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Given the whole point of the project is publishing what happened, a quiet change would be off-brand as well as wrong.
