This page explains what this website collects when you visit it. In short: it counts visits anonymously, uses no cookies, and never sees your payment details.
What this site records
To understand which pages and links lead people to the book, the site records simple, anonymous events:
- that a page was viewed, and how far down it was scrolled;
- which “buy” button was clicked;
- whether the “before you go” message was shown;
- the website or campaign tag that sent you here (for example, a YouTube link), your country, and whether you used a phone, tablet or computer.
To count a visitor once per day without identifying them, the site creates a one-way code from a secret value, the date, your connection’s IP address and your browser type. The code changes every day and cannot be turned back into your IP address. Your IP address itself is not stored.
What this site does not do
- It sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device.
- It uses no advertising trackers and no third-party analytics scripts.
- It does not collect your name, email address or payment details.
- It does not sell or share visit data.
Purchases
When you click a buy button you are taken to Gumroad, which handles checkout, payment and delivery. Gumroad collects the details needed for your purchase, such as your email address and payment information, under its own privacy policy. As the seller, Julian the Historian receives your email address and order details from Gumroad to provide the book and support.
Hosting
This website is hosted by Cloudflare, which processes technical request data to deliver and protect the site. The anonymous visit records described above are stored in a Cloudflare database.
