Privacy

This site does not use analytics, tracking cookies, or third-party advertising. No personal data is collected for marketing or profiling purposes.

Server logs

Like every web server, Nginx writes access and error logs that include the visitor's IP address, user agent, timestamp, and the URL requested. These logs are used exclusively for security purposes — rate limiting, fail2ban threat detection, and diagnosing technical issues. They are not shared with anyone else and are rotated regularly.

Security and automated banning

Repeated malicious requests (probing for hidden files, brute-forcing logins, or triggering Nginx's forbidden-request rules) result in the originating IP address being temporarily banned at the firewall. The IP and the reason for the ban are reported to AbuseIPDB, a crowd-sourced threat-intelligence database used by system administrators worldwide. No other personal data is transmitted. AbuseIPDB's privacy policy is available at abuseipdb.com/privacy-policy.

Cloudflare

Traffic to this site passes through Cloudflare's network for DDoS protection and performance. Cloudflare sets a single functional cookie (__cf_bm) for bot detection on free plans. This cookie does not track browsing across sites. Cloudflare's privacy policy is available at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

No third-party content

This site loads no external fonts, analytics scripts, social-media embeds, or advertising networks. All assets — CSS, fonts, images — are served directly from this domain.

Your rights

Because no personal data is collected beyond what is necessary for security and server operation, there is no user account to delete and no profile to export. If you believe an IP address you control was incorrectly banned, you can request removal by contacting the address listed in the site's domain WHOIS record. AbuseIPDB reports can be challenged through their contact page.
