Information we collect
Our Goal is to Not Know Who You Are
Though, in order to protect ourselves, we must say : We may collect both “Non-Personal Information” and “Personal Information” about you.
“Non-Personal Information” includes information that cannot be directly used to personally identify you, such as basic browser information (e.g. Chrome on Windows) This is standard on most hosting services, and we’ve disabled everything we can to collect as little as possible.
“Personal Information” includes information that can be used to personally identify you, such as your name and email address. This is never collected unless you optionally submit it to us through a contact form or other communication method. We don’t typically verify the information supplied, so you have the full ability to use aliases when contacting us.
We do not utilize cookies, we don’t track you through scripts, and we do not implement trackers on our website to analyze your behavior. We recommend using browser tools to block trackers that may be used by the embedded tool if this concerns you. Or alternatively you may disable JavaScript, though this may break some tools on our site.
