Privacy

Back Porch Plumbing Field Guide collects no personal information from readers. That is a description of how the site is built rather than a policy commitment, and the sections below explain what it means in practice.

Nothing to Submit

The site takes no submissions of any kind. Without a form or an account there is no channel for personal data to arrive through.

Hosting and Server Requests

Delivery is handled by a hosting platform. Technical details such as the requesting network address are kept for a short period for abuse prevention. This is a function of the hosting layer rather than something the site controls or has access to.

Nothing Is Measured

The pages carry no analytics, no tag manager and no advertising pixel. There is no measurement layer, so there is no record of an individual reader to protect in the first place.

If the Site Changes

If the site ever changes in a way that affects this description, the description changes with it. A privacy page that has drifted from the site it describes is worse than none, so this one is kept in step.

Links to Other Sites

Where a page links elsewhere, the destination is beyond this site's control. What happens after that point is between the reader and whoever operates that site.

Nothing Is Stored

Browser storage is not used at all, cookies included. Because nothing is stored in the browser, there is no consent banner, and nothing to accept or decline.
