Privacy & measurement

We count aggregate page views and broad referral sources to understand whether people find this directory through search engines and AI services.

What is counted

The measurement code uses no cookies, browser storage, advertising IDs or visitor fingerprints. It sends only a published page path and a source category to this website’s own hosting. It does not send search terms, full referring URLs, URL query strings, names or email addresses.

Storage and retention

The server stores daily counters outside the public website directory. The counters contain no IP addresses or user-agent strings and are retained for up to 13 months. Standard hosting access logs are separate and may contain connection information under the hosting provider’s normal operation.

Your controls and the limits

The measurement code respects Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Browser blocking can prevent counts. Counts represent page views, not unique people. A visit referred by an AI service does not prove that the service cited a particular claim.

External links lead to services with their own privacy policies. This site has no advertising trackers, account creation or payment collection.
