This site collects nothing: no cookies, no analytics, no third-party requests and no tracking parameters on outbound links.

Privacy: what this site collects, which is nothing

checked 2026-09-16kept by The Nosing Line (a named line, not a person)

A table of what the site collects and the consequence of each absence — The absence of analytics is a real cost and is stated as one.

A four-step flow listing every request a page makes — Nothing leaves the host. Not to scale.

A checklist showing that the site sets no cookies, analytics or tracking — A privacy page that needs scrolling is usually hiding something.

What this site collects

Nothing. There is no analytics script, no cookie, no font loaded from a third party, no embedded video and no advertising. The sheets are static HTML with one local stylesheet, one optional local script and locally drawn figures. If the script fails to load, the sheets still read and the links still work.

What that means in practice

Item	Present	Consequence
Cookies	None	no consent banner is needed, because there is nothing to consent to
Analytics	None	the line cannot see which sheets are read or where readers stop
Third-party requests	None	no visitor address is shared with anyone
Server logs	Depends on the host	the host records requests; that is the host's policy, not this line's

The absence of analytics is a real cost. The line cannot know which sheets are read, so sheets are improved from corrections and from the documents rather than from behaviour. That trade is made deliberately: a line about measurable things that tracked its readers would have to explain why.

Outbound links

Every outbound link points at a specific document and opens in the same tab. No link carries a tracking parameter, because the line does not generate any. Where a destination site sets its own cookies, that is between the reader and that site.

This page is deliberately one screen. A privacy page that needs scrolling is usually describing something it would rather not summarise.

Each line points at one specific document, with its own title as the link text. No line is a home page and no line is a search result.
