Cookies

There is no analytics on this site. There is no advertising. There is nothing here that tracks you, follows you to another site, or builds a picture of what you read. I have no interest in any of it, and the site is not set up to do it.

The site itself sets no cookies at all. No preferences are stored, and there is nothing to sign in to.

The one cookie you may see

The site is served through Cloudflare, which protects it from automated abuse. Cloudflare sets a cookie named __cf_bm for that purpose. It lasts around thirty minutes, it tells apart people from bots, and it is not used for advertising or for any kind of profiling.

That is a strictly necessary cookie, so under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations it does not require your consent. That is also why you will not find a cookie banner here. Asking you to click through a consent box for a security cookie would be theatre.

Requests to other domains

Two typefaces, Fraunces and Karla, are loaded from Google Fonts, so your browser fetches them from Google when a page loads. No cookie is set by that request. The privacy notice explains what Google sees as a result.

Links out to other sites, including the reference guides, are ordinary links. Nothing is loaded from those sites until you choose to go there.

Blocking cookies

Your browser can block or clear cookies for this domain, and the site will work exactly as before. Nothing here depends on one.
