Privacy

This is a small archive site. It sets no cookies of its own, stores nothing in your browser, and runs no analytics and no advertising. What follows is what it actually loads, taken from the site's own source.

What this site does not do

Fonts, loaded from Google

Typefaces are loaded from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. Google receives your IP address and browser details in order to serve them. This happens on every page, and it is the only third-party request the site makes before you click anything.

Video, loaded from YouTube when you ask for it

Seven videos are embedded from www.youtube-nocookie.com. They are not loaded when the page opens. Each one shows a still image until you click it, and only then is the player fetched from YouTube.

The "nocookie" domain does not mean no data. It defers cookies and similar storage until playback starts, so once you play a video, YouTube and Google can set storage on your device and receive information about what you watched.

Music, loaded from Spotify when you ask for it

A Spotify player is embedded from open.spotify.com. It is not loaded when the page opens. Nothing is requested from Spotify until you press the button to load it, and from that point the player is Spotify's and is governed by Spotify's own privacy terms.

Hosting

The site is served as static files from GitHub Pages.

Unverified: what GitHub logs when it serves a page, and for how long. That is GitHub's to describe, not this site's, and it has not been confirmed here. Also unverified: the specific cookies and identifiers YouTube and Spotify set once you load their players, which are set by those companies and can change without notice.
