Privacy

The short version:We collect as little as possible. We don't know who you are. We never sell data, and every advertising signal is switched off. We use privacy-first analytics to see which pages help. Quick Exit can't wipe your browser history — use private browsing for that.

This policy follows the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). It will be reviewed by a professional before launch.

What we collect

  • No accounts, no names, no emails are required to read this site.
  • Privacy-first analytics: we use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, which pages help people. It runs on every page, but with Google Consent Mode v2 set so that every advertising signal is permanently denied. We never enable ads features, never use Google Signals, anonymise IP addresses, and never send what you type into search to analytics.
  • Your choices stay on your device: your dark-mode preference and content-warning acknowledgements are stored locally and never sent to us.

Analytics & cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 with Google Consent Mode v2. Analytics storage is on so we can see, in aggregate, which pages help — while advertising storage, ad user data and ad personalisation are denied by default and never enabled. There are no ads on this site and never will be. We don't use a third-party consent platform; this is configured directly in our code, and IP addresses are anonymised. The dismissible notice at the bottom of the page simply discloses this — dismissing it doesn't change what we collect.

Sensitive information

We do not ask for or store health information about you. That's exactly why advertising features are switched off and our data collection is kept to a minimum.

Why, and who we use

We collect the little we do only to run the site, keep it secure, and understand in aggregate what helps. Never advertising, never profiling, never sale. Google Analytics (Google LLC) processes anonymised usage data with all advertising signals denied; Cloudflare provides our content delivery and security.

Access, correction & complaints

Because we hold nothing identifiable about you, there is usually nothing to access or correct. If you have a privacy concern, contact us first; you can also raise it with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).
