Privacy

This blog is run by Pasi Huuhka. Comments are optional and load only when requested.

Appearance preference

The theme follows your device by default. If you choose Light or Dark, this site saves that preference in your browser's local storage. Choosing System removes it. This preference is not sent to analytics.

Analytics

This site uses Umami Cloud to measure visits, popular pages, and traffic sources. Umami does not use analytics cookies. It receives page views and referrers along with information such as browser, device, language, and approximate location.

Analytics loads automatically on the public site. This site removes query strings and URL fragments from the page addresses and referrers it reports, and honors your browser's Do Not Track setting. Local and preview sites do not load analytics. Google Analytics is no longer loaded.

Umami Cloud Hobby currently retains analytics data for six months. See Umami's privacy policy and data collection documentation for details about processing and visitor statistics.

Comments

Comments use giscus and public GitHub Discussions. The comment service loads automatically as the comments section approaches the viewport. Loading it connects your browser to giscus and GitHub. Commenting requires GitHub sign-in, and comments are public. Loading comments does not change how analytics works.

See the giscus privacy policy and GitHub's privacy statement.

Hosting and embedded content

Azure hosts the site and its images. Hosting providers receive network information needed to serve requests. Some older articles include external media, such as videos. Those services have their own privacy practices and are separate from Umami analytics.
