Privacy Policy
How this site handles information about visitors.
Last updated: May 2026
Overview
BrickPorch (brickporch.org) is a static informational website. This privacy policy describes what data is collected when you visit the site, how it is used, and what controls you have over it.
Information Collected
Server Logs
Web servers automatically record standard access information including IP addresses, browser type, referring URLs, and pages requested. This information is retained for a limited period for operational purposes and is not used for individual profiling or sold to third parties.
Contact Form
The contact form on this site uses client-side JavaScript simulation only. No form submissions are transmitted to a server or stored anywhere. When you submit the form, the data remains in your browser session and is cleared after a confirmation message is shown.
Cookies and Local Storage
This site uses browser localStorage to record whether you have accepted or rejected the cookie consent notice. This is stored locally in your browser and is not transmitted to any server. It contains a single value ("accepted" or "rejected") and no personal information.
If third-party analytics or advertising scripts are loaded on this domain in the future, this policy will be updated to reflect that and an updated consent mechanism will be implemented.
Third-Party Content
Some images on this site are loaded directly from Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org). When your browser loads these images, your IP address is transmitted to Wikimedia servers. This is governed by the Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy.
Google Fonts are loaded via their CDN. Font requests include your browser and IP address. This is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
Your Rights
Since this site does not collect or store personal data beyond standard server logs, there is generally no personal data to access, correct, or delete. If you have a specific concern, you may submit a request through the contact form on the homepage.
Changes to This Policy
This policy may be updated from time to time. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. Continued use of the site following any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
