Reading this page sets nothing. No cookies, no analytics, no third-party requests — every image, style and script here comes from this server and nothing else is loaded.

If you post on the wall, reply to someone, or like or dislike a post, two small things happen:

• A cookie named visitor_id is stored in your browser. It holds a random string and nothing else — no name, no email, no tracking identifier. It exists so the wall can tell that two posts came from the same person, which is what makes the twenty-second limit and one-vote-per-post work. It lasts a year, and clearing it simply means the site stops recognising you.
• Your IP address is passed through a keyed hash and only the result is stored. The address itself is never written to disk. The hash is used for the same spam limits, and lets the site owner see that a run of junk posts came from one source.

Dismissing the notice bar stores one more cookie, notice_ack, so the bar does not reappear on every visit.

What is kept from a post: the name you typed, the message, the time, the random visitor id and the hashed address. Posts you can see on the wall are public to everyone. The site owner can delete any of them.

Nothing is shared with anyone, sold, or used to build a profile of you.
