Privacy Considerations
This website does not use analytics, visitor activity is not logged, it is not possible to easily identify a user who visits this website. All access logs are cleared every two weeks.
Cookies
This website uses cookies to store the site preferences if the visitor updates them, this is because the website does not use JavaScript. The HTML specifications do not provide other ways to preserve this information in the browser. No cookies are stored if the user does not change preferences.
No cross-site or tracking cookies are stored by this website.
IP Logging
This website is served via nginx, and the access logging is enabled. The fail2ban
tool uses these logs to block bad request and to do rate limiting for bad bots.
I clear these logs once every two weeks and is not inspected for any other purposes other than to block bad actors.
If the request hits a 404 page (non-existing page), or sends me bad POST requests (this is only done by bots), I log their IP to temporarily block them if uncaught by the fail2ban
. These IPs are cleared once in every two weeks and are not backed up in any way.
I am currently searching for ways to do the blocking without storing the IP in plaintext, the blocking tool I use (fail2ban
) does not allow banning hashed IP addresses.
