Visit Counting: search arrivals
When a visitor arrives on this site from a search engine, the pages record a small set of details connected to that single visit: the page path being viewed, the type of event taking place, the name of the referring search engine, and the text of any outbound button that gets clicked. This information is used only to count page views and to count clicks on outbound buttons. Nothing beyond traffic counting is done with it, and the counting only happens for visits that begin at a search engine rather than for every visitor.
Session Flag: single count
To stop a single page view from being counted more than once, the site keeps one flag in the browser for the current session. That flag exists only for as long as the browsing session lasts and serves the sole purpose of preventing duplicate counts for the same view. It does not build a profile of the visitor and does not persist beyond the session in which it is set.
Page Delivery: static files
The pages themselves are self-contained: each one is built with locally embedded fonts and the other files a page needs, rather than pulling resources in from outside domains while it is being displayed. The site is served as a set of static files through a content delivery network, which handles the technical delivery of every request as the hosting arrangement behind the pages. This is a structural fact about how the site is built and hosted, not a description of what happens to any particular visitor's data once a request leaves this domain.
Outbound Links: partner redirects
Some pages contain outbound links to third-party sites. When one of these links is followed, it first passes through a path on this domain and is then redirected on to the partner destination. This page can state how that redirect step works on this domain, but it cannot state what happens once the visitor's browser reaches the separate partner site, because that destination receives the request directly and keeps its own separate record of it. This page does not describe, and has no basis to describe, the practices of that separate destination.
What Is Not Here: forms and tracking
This site has no forms, no third-party analytics, no external subresources loaded from other domains while a page displays, and no contact channels of any kind. There is nothing for a visitor to fill in, no outside analytics service receiving data from these pages, and no e-mail address, postal address, or submission form anywhere on the site. Because there is no form and no contact channel, readers should not attempt to submit names, e-mail addresses, account details, or any other personal information through this site, since no channel exists here to receive it. Any such information should only ever be handled by whichever destination a reader actually chooses to visit and interact with directly, under that destination's own terms.
