Privacy

The Counter Ledger collects no personal information from readers. That is a description of how the site is built rather than a policy commitment, and the sections below explain what it means in practice.

Nothing Is Stored

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

External Links

Outbound links appear throughout the guides. Any site reached that way sets its own terms and handles data on its own account.

No Forms or Accounts

There is no way to send anything to this site. No contact form, no subscription, no login, so no personal detail is ever transmitted.

Nothing Is Measured

No tracking script of any kind is loaded. No page view is recorded against a reader, no identifier is assigned, and no behavioral profile exists to be sold, shared or lost.

Changes to This Page

The account given here tracks the actual construction of the site. It is updated whenever that construction changes, rather than on a review calendar.

How Pages Are Delivered

The site is delivered through a hosting provider whose infrastructure sees each request. 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.
