In one sentence
This blog uses privacy-respecting, cookie-less analytics to see roughly which countries read it and which pages are popular — and it stores no personal data about you.
What we collect
- Country-level location (e.g. "United Kingdom"), derived from your IP address at the network edge.
- Pages visited and general traffic counts (visits, page views, referrers, browser/device type).
What we do NOT collect
- No cookies, no tracking identifiers, and no consent banner is needed.
- No names, email addresses, or other personal information.
- No precise (street-level) location.
- No IP addresses are stored by us. Cloudflare, who provides this analytics, strips and does not store visitor IPs.
Why we do this
We have a legitimate interest in understanding which countries our readers come from and which writing resonates, so we can keep producing it. This is the same approach used by thousands of privacy-conscious sites across Europe.
Third parties
This site is served by and uses analytics from Cloudflare, a EU-US compliant service provider, for web analytics. It also loads fonts and icons from third-party CDNs, which may log standard, short-lived connection data in line with their own privacy policies.
