Privacy

Surface Prep Journal 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.

No Sign-In

The site takes no submissions of any kind. There is no mechanism through which a reader could submit personal information even deliberately.

Keeping This Accurate

This is a description of a build, so it is revised whenever the build is. It is written to reflect the site as it stands, not as an aspiration.

Nothing Is Stored

No cookie is set by this site. There is no state kept between one visit and the next.

External Links

Some pages link to other websites. Any site reached that way sets its own terms and handles data on its own account.

No Tracking

There is no analytics package on this site. No page view is recorded against a reader, no identifier is assigned, and no behavioral profile exists to be sold, shared or lost.

Hosting and Server Requests

Pages are served by a commercial hosting provider. 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.
