Privacy

Quartz and Quarry has no way to identify a reader, and the sections below explain why that is a matter of construction rather than of policy.

The Hosting Layer

The site is delivered through a hosting provider whose infrastructure sees each request. Like any web host it processes the technical request data needed to deliver a page, including the requesting address, and retains it briefly for security and operational purposes. That processing sits with the host and is common to essentially all web hosting.

Changes to This Page

The account given here tracks the actual construction of the site. Should a feature ever be added that handles data differently, this text is revised at the same time.

Browser Storage

Nothing is written to the device a reader arrives on. A reader arrives, reads a document, and leaves nothing behind.

No Tracking

Nothing on these pages reports a visit to anybody. Readership is simply unknown here, which is unusual on the modern web and entirely deliberate.

No Sign-In

There is no form, no comment box, no newsletter signup and no account. There is no mechanism through which a reader could submit personal information even deliberately.

Links to Other Sites

Where a page links elsewhere, the destination is beyond this site's control. Once a reader follows one of those links they are on a site with its own practices, and nothing described here applies to it.
