Privacy

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

Browser Storage

No cookie is set by this site. A reader arrives, reads a document, and leaves nothing behind.

Links to Other Sites

Where a page links elsewhere, the destination is beyond this site's control. Its own policies govern from the moment the link is followed.

Keeping This Accurate

The account given here tracks the actual construction of the site. Should a feature ever be added that handles data differently, this text is revised at the same time.

Nothing to Submit

There is no way to send anything to this site. Without a form or an account there is no channel for personal data to arrive through.

No Tracking

No tracking script of any kind is loaded. There is no measurement layer, so there is no record of an individual reader to protect in the first place.

Hosting and Server Requests

Serving a page necessarily involves a server receiving a request. That request data belongs to the hosting provider, is held briefly for operational reasons, and never reaches the publication itself.
