Your information

Privacy

Last updated

This site is a set of static files. It has no accounts, forms, comments or newsletter. It sets no cookies of its own and loads no third-party trackers or embeds, and its fonts and images come from this domain. This page covers the little personal information it does touch.

When you visit

Cloudflare serves this site. To deliver each page and protect the site from attacks and abuse, Cloudflare processes your IP address, your browser’s user agent, the URL you request and related request details. Cloudflare keeps its own logs of these requests under the Cloudflare privacy policy, which also sets how long it keeps them.

Analytics

I use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. Its script loads only on chadnorman.fyi, and only after the page has finished loading. It sets no cookies, uses no local storage and does not fingerprint you. It reports aggregate counts: page views, referrers, countries, browsers and page-load performance. I see totals, not individual visitors.

If you block the script, nothing on the site stops working.

Cookies and local storage

The site sets no cookies, and Cloudflare’s Bot Fight Mode is off. If Cloudflare ever challenges a request as suspicious, it may set a cf_clearance cookie that records that you passed the challenge, so you are not challenged again. The cookie is strictly necessary to reach the site, so there is no consent banner. Cloudflare’s cookie list describes it.

The theme toggle remembers your light or dark choice in your browser’s local storage. It stays on your device and the site never sends it anywhere.

Stickerbook

Stickerbook, at stickerbook.chadnorman.fyi, is a drawing board that runs in your browser. Your boards, the images you add to them and where you left each one open are stored in your browser’s IndexedDB. Your light or dark choice and the last board you opened are stored in its local storage. None of it is sent to me or to anyone else, and I can’t see it.

Stickerbook runs no analytics. Cloudflare serves its files the same way it serves this site, so the request details under “When you visit” apply.

A share link carries the board encoded inside the part of the address after the #. Your browser never sends that part to a server, but the link itself is the board: anyone who has it can decode and open it, no account needed. Treat it like the content it contains, share it only with people you’d trust with that, and keep anything sensitive out of the board in the first place.

Clearing your browser’s data for stickerbook.chadnorman.fyi deletes your boards. Export anything you want to keep.

When you email me

If you email hello@chadnorman.fyi, I keep your email only as long as I need it to reply.

Your rights

Under POPIA you can ask me whether I hold personal information about you and for a copy of it. You can ask me to correct or delete it, and you can object to my processing it. Email me at hello@chadnorman.fyi and I’ll answer.

If you’re not satisfied with my answer, you can complain to the Information Regulator (South Africa). Its complaints page explains how, and its website is inforegulator.org.za.

Changes

When anything here changes, I’ll update this page and the date at the top.
