This privacy policy outlines how we collect and process your data on this website.

What data do we collect?

General browsing

While browsing the site, no personal information is collected.

Comments

We do not collect any data when you send a comment or reaction, but GitHub does in order to provide the service.

Analytics

For website improvement, the following non-personal data is collected:

  • Referrer: the source that led you to this site.
  • Requested URL: the specific page you visited.
  • User-Agent: identifies the browser and operating system you use (e.g. “Safari 17.0, Mac OS X”).
  • Country name: the country you are visiting from, determined by your IP address.
  • Language: the language your browser is set to.
  • Screen size: the dimensions of your device’s screen.
  • Time: when you accessed the site.
  • Browsing session: a temporary identification code generated from your IP address, browser information, and a random number. This is used to recognize a browsing session for 8 hours. After that time, the code is deleted from memory and is not stored anywhere.

We do not track unique visitors across sessions, and we do not track how long you stay on the site or where you go after you leave.

How do we collect this data?

Comments

The data associated with comments is collected using giscus, a platform that enables GitHub-based comments.

Analytics

The non-personal data is collected using a self-hosted instance of GoatCounter, an open-source privacy-friendly web analytics platform.

How will we use the data?

The data sent to GitHub is used to display your comment on the site.

The non personal data is used to generate statistics about the site, such as the number of visitors per day, or the most popular pages and referrers. This data is used to improve this demo site and the tabi theme. You can see the statistics generated from this data on the public stats page.

All data collected is publicly available, either in the form of comments or statistics.

We do not use the data for any other purpose.

How do we store the data?

The comments data is not stored by Giscus, as specified in their privacy policy. The data is stored on GitHub servers. See the GitHub’s privacy policy.

The analytics data is stored on a server hosted by Vultr. The server is located in Paris, France.

The server follows industry best practices for security, including automatic security updates, a strict Content Security Policy, a firewall, key-based SSH access, etc.

How long will we store the data?

The comments are stored indefinitely, or until you request their deletion.

The rest of the data is stored indefinitely.
