Privacy

Back Porch Latch Logbook collects no personal information from readers. That is a description of how the site is built rather than a policy commitment, and the sections below explain what it means in practice.

Browser Storage

Browser storage is not used at all, cookies included. There is no state kept between one visit and the next.

Nothing to Submit

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.

Leaving This Site

Outbound links appear throughout the guides. Its own policies govern from the moment the link is followed.

Nothing Is Measured

No tracking script of any kind is loaded. There is no measurement layer, so there is no record of an individual reader to protect in the first place.

How Pages Are Delivered

Pages are served by a commercial hosting provider. Technical details such as the requesting network address are kept for a short period for abuse prevention. This is a function of the hosting layer rather than something the site controls or has access to.

If the Site Changes

This is a description of a build, so it is revised whenever the build is. A privacy page that has drifted from the site it describes is worse than none, so this one is kept in step.
