CodeSirocco Blog is a static website. There is no account system, no comment form, and no newsletter signup. This page describes what that means for your data.

Last updated: 17 August 2026.

The short version

This site collects nothing from you directly. It runs no analytics of its own and asks for no personal information. Third-party advertising, described below, may set cookies in your browser.

What this site collects

Nothing directly.

Every page is pre-rendered HTML served as a static file. There is no application code running on your visit, no database, and no form that submits anything anywhere.

Specifically, this site does not:

  • Run analytics — no Google Analytics, Plausible, or equivalent
  • Embed social media pixels or fingerprinting scripts
  • Ask for your name, email address, or any other personal information

Your light/dark theme preference is stored in your browser’s own localStorage. It never leaves your device and is not transmitted to me or anyone else.

Advertising and third-party cookies

This site may display advertising served by Google, including through Google AdSense.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You have the following controls over this:

  • You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You may opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
  • Third-party vendors and ad networks other than Google may also serve ads on this site. Where that applies, those vendors’ own privacy policies govern their use of cookies.

For more detail on how Google uses data when you use its partners’ sites, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you will be asked for consent before personalised advertising cookies are set, and you may withdraw that consent at any time.

What the host collects

This site is served by Cloudflare, which acts as both CDN and host. As with any web server, Cloudflare processes standard request data in order to deliver pages and protect against abuse. This typically includes your IP address, user agent, requested URL, and timestamp.

I do not have access to per-visitor logs, and I do not use this data to build any profile of you. Cloudflare’s handling of it is governed by their own Privacy Policy.

Posts here link to external sites — GitHub repositories, documentation, other people’s writing. Once you follow such a link you are on someone else’s site, subject to their privacy practices, not this one. I have no control over what they collect.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies through your browser’s settings, including those set by advertisers. Doing so will not stop you from reading anything here — the site itself does not depend on cookies to function.

Children’s privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. No personal information is knowingly collected from children.

Changes to this policy

If this site adds analytics, comments, or anything else that changes the above, this page will be updated and the date at the top will change with it.
