What is counted
A random first-party visitor token, the public page path, the calendar day, and an aggregate page-view count.
PRIVACY // PLAIN LANGUAGE
Small signal.
No dossier.
This site collects the minimum needed to understand whether its pages are useful. It does not build advertising profiles or sell visitor data.
What is not stored
No IP address, query string, referrer, full user agent, precise location, advertising identifier, contact information, or GitHub identity is placed in the site analytics table.
How the token works
The browser receives a Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite cookie. Before storage, its random value is converted to a one-way SHA-256 hash. The raw token is not written to the analytics database.
Who can see it
The counter and path totals are available only inside the GitHub-authenticated admin panel. There is no public visitor counter.
How long it remains
Analytics rows older than 90 days are automatically removed. The visitor cookie can remain for up to one year so returning browsers are not repeatedly counted as new.
