Privacy
We keep this simple. Traffic analytics is cookieless — we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which stores nothing on your device and builds no profile of you, so it needs no consent. This site currently shows no advertising and sets no advertising cookies. If ads are introduced later, a consent banner will ask before any advertising cookie is set.

How long data is kept
Traffic is measured with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless: it stores nothing on your device, builds no profile of you, and does no cross-site tracking. Only aggregate, page-level metrics are recorded.
