Privacy
What this site knows about you.
Short, because there is not much to say.
This site counts visits, in two ways. It uses Umami, which runs in your browser, and it also keeps a plain tally on the server of how many times each page was asked for. Neither sets a cookie or stores anything on your device — which is why there is no banner asking your permission for any of it.
What that records: the page you are on, the site that sent you here, and rough details about your browser, your language and your country. Also a handful of named clicks — following a link to one of my projects, opening a press piece, copying the press bio, subscribing to the newsletter — so I can tell which parts of the site are doing anything.
The server-side tally is narrower still: the date, which page, and which site linked you here. It counts requests, not people — it has no way to tell whether two visits came from one reader or two, because it stores nothing that would let it work that out.
What neither records: your name, your IP address, or anything that identifies you personally. Your address reaches the server, as it has to for anything to load, and is used to work out the country before being discarded. You are not followed onto other websites, because neither of these can do that. Nothing here is sold, shared or used for advertising.
If you would rather not be counted, turn on Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track in your browser and the server-side tally will skip you. An ad blocker stops Umami. The site works exactly the same either way.
Two forms on this site — the newsletter and the bio-use note — collect an email address, and only because you typed one in. Those go to me. Write to hello@tschuebi.com and I will delete anything you have given me, no explanation needed.
