Privacy-first technology choices

Be assured, we are promoters, supporters, and advocates of all personal data privacy needs and expectations, respecting all our website and services users, without prejudice.

You may notice in our Privacy Policy, our avoidance of using common big-tech services, tools and hidden functions, that may have complex, convoluted or otherwise questionable data privacy and protection policies across many jurisdictions, and have or be associated with conflicted interests in targetted advertising businesses.

It is beyond our resources to monitor and, by proxy of usage, endorse such far-reaching services, beyond the absolute necessary, and clearly identifiable.

Our default choice in use of any data processing services is always self-hosted and identifiably managed — for security, privacy, and minimal data footprint — therefore minimising risks of unidentifiable loss, breach, or misappropriation.

We've worked extensively to make technical development choices, where possible, that avoid using or needing cookies — and will continue to work towards a cookie-free website as soon as possible and practicable.
