Cookie Privacy Policy

This page describes cookies and similar browser storage that may be used on lexyness.com.

In short

Reading the guides does not set advertising cookies or social-media tracking cookies.

What may be used

• Security and delivery. The network that delivers our pages may set a short-lived cookie or use similar signals to tell real visitors from automated traffic and keep the site available.
• Visit totals. Our hosting and delivery services may count visits in aggregate so we know which pages are useful, without building advertising profiles.
• Site editors. WordPress sets sign-in cookies only for the people who manage the site.

The word cards and the question boxes

The flip cards, the question boxes on the homepage and the mobile index menu work inside your browser only. Nothing you open is saved or sent anywhere, and no cookie is set.

The contact form

Sending a note does not set a cookie. Spam protection uses hidden fields and short-lived records on our server.

Cached pages

Public pages may be kept in a server cache so they load faster. The cache stores copies of pages, not information about you. The contact page is never cached.

Your controls

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The guides and the Marginalia archive work without them.

For personal information more generally, see the Privacy Policy.
