Privacy

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

Nothing to Submit

Nothing on the site accepts input. There is no mechanism through which a reader could submit personal information even deliberately.

How Pages Are Delivered

Pages are served by a commercial hosting provider. That request data belongs to the hosting provider, is held briefly for operational reasons, and never reaches the publication itself.

If the Site Changes

If the site ever changes in a way that affects this description, the description changes with it. It is written to reflect the site as it stands, not as an aspiration.

Browser Storage

Nothing is written to the device a reader arrives on. There is no state kept between one visit and the next.

No Analytics

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

Leaving This Site

Where a page links elsewhere, the destination is beyond this site's control. Any site reached that way sets its own terms and handles data on its own account.
