Privacy

Perimeter Notes has no way to identify a reader, and the sections below explain why that is a matter of construction rather than of policy.

Browser Storage

Browser storage is not used at all, cookies included. A second visit is indistinguishable from a first, because nothing from the first was retained.

No Analytics

Nothing on these pages reports a visit to anybody. There is no measurement layer, so there is no record of an individual reader to protect in the first place.

Links to Other Sites

Some pages link to other websites. What happens after that point is between the reader and whoever operates that site.

No Forms or Accounts

There is no form, no comment box, no newsletter signup and no account. Without a form or an account there is no channel for personal data to arrive through.

If the Site Changes

The account given here tracks the actual construction of the site. It is updated whenever that construction changes, rather than on a review calendar.

The Hosting Layer

The site is delivered through a hosting provider whose infrastructure sees each request. That request data belongs to the hosting provider, is held briefly for operational reasons, and never reaches the publication itself.
