# Privacy

What this site collects, which is close to nothing.

## What is collected

There are no accounts, no forms and no comments on this site, so there is nothing for you to submit and nothing of yours to store. It sets no cookies of its own, and it writes nothing to local storage, session storage or IndexedDB. Nothing you do here is tied to an identifier that follows you.

Page views are counted by [OneDollarStats](https://onedollarstats.com/privacy), a cookieless analytics service. It records the page, the referrer and coarse aggregates. It does not set a cookie, does not build a cross-site profile and does not receive anything I could use to identify you. It is the only script on the site that is not mine.

## What a page load touches

Fonts are self-hosted, so no request goes to Google. The small site marks beside links are local copies rather than hotlinked favicons, so no request goes to the sites they stand for. The one third-party request every page makes is the analytics script.

The home page shows what I am listening to. My Spotify credentials stay on the server and your browser only ever talks to this site’s own endpoint, so nothing about you is sent to Spotify. The exception is the album art itself: while something is playing, your browser loads that one image from Spotify’s CDN.

The site is hosted on [Vercel](https://vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy), which keeps the usual server request logs, including IP addresses, for operations and abuse handling. That is the host’s log rather than something this site reads or acts on.

## Content, agents and reuse

Crawlers and agents are welcome. Every page is served as markdown at its own path plus [.md](https://sanyam.sh/index.md), and [llms.txt](https://sanyam.sh/llms.txt) indexes the lot. The write-ups and lab experiments may be used for training and summarisation, and attribution is appreciated when they are quoted. The endpoints under `/api/` are for this site’s own use and are disallowed in [robots.txt](https://sanyam.sh/robots.txt).

## Questions

Write to [lewarends@gmail.com](https://sanyam.shmailto:lewarends@gmail.com) with anything about this page, about content usage, or to ask that something be taken down. This page describes the site as it is deployed right now. If any of it changes, this page changes with it.
