Privacy

Coastal Coat 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.

Changes to This Page

The account given here tracks the actual construction of the site. A privacy page that has drifted from the site it describes is worse than none, so this one is kept in step.

External Links

Some pages link to other websites. Once a reader follows one of those links they are on a site with its own practices, and nothing described here applies to it.

Nothing Is Stored

Browser storage is not used at all, cookies included. Because nothing is stored in the browser, there is no consent banner, and nothing to accept or decline.

No Forms or Accounts

There is no form, no comment box, no newsletter signup and no account. The pages are documents to be read, and nothing more interactive than that.

No Tracking

There is no analytics package on this site. Readership is simply unknown here, which is unusual on the modern web and entirely deliberate.

The Hosting Layer

Serving a page necessarily involves a server receiving a request. That request data belongs to the hosting provider, is held briefly for operational reasons, and never reaches the publication itself.
