Draft for the editor’s wording. This page describes what the site’s code does today.

Privacy

Buchanan Bedrock is a small, static news site. We collect as little as we can, and we never sell or share what we do collect.

Reading the site

• No accounts, no ads, no tracking cookies, and no third-party ad trackers.
• Our host keeps standard short-lived server logs to keep the site running.
• Visit counts: when it is switched on, we use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It is cookieless, does not follow you from site to site, and does not collect personal data. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
• Our own page counts: when switched on, each page view sends our server only the page’s address (like /weekly) and, on the search page, the words you searched for. We store those with the time. We do not store your IP address, browser or device details, where you came from, cookies, or any ID, so we cannot tell visits or visitors apart.
• Maps: the map and directory pages load map images from OpenStreetMap’s tile servers, so your browser asks OpenStreetMap for those images. See the OpenStreetMap Foundation privacy policy.

The “Tell us” form

• We keep your answer, the page you sent it from, and the time. We don’t ask for your name or email.
• We never store your IP address. We keep only a salted, one-way code made from it (a hash), so we can stop someone flooding the form. The code can’t be turned back into your address.
• Spam check: the form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to tell people from bots. It runs only on pages with the form. See Cloudflare’s Turnstile privacy notice.
• How long we keep it: Feedback data is kept for 90 days.

The weekly email

Coming soon. When it opens, we’ll keep only your email address, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Getting something deleted

Want something you sent us removed? Tell us or email contact@buchananbedrock.com with the page and roughly when you sent it, and we’ll delete it.
