When you read the website
- No account is needed to read anything on the site, and we do not ask for your name or email to read an article.
- Analytics: we use Google Analytics to count visits and see which articles people read. It sets cookies and receives your approximate location, device and browser details, and the pages you view. We do not use it to identify you. You can block it with your browser settings or the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
- View counter: when you open an article, the page tells our server to add one to that article's public view count. We store only the number of views per article per day, with no cookies, IP addresses or other information about you.
- Hosting and security: the site is served by Cloudflare, which processes your IP address and request details to deliver pages and protect the site from attacks.
