This website received a Privacy Impact Score of ‘A’ using the privacy scanner that was formerly found at webcookies.org.

E-mail addresses

Contact forms

This website does not gather visitor information on contact forms.

Cookies

This website does not send any cookies to visitors, even when they elect to submit flag ratings within the popup applets that appear on the website’s ‘Grid’ page.

Analytics

This website does not collect any analytics data.

HTML5 canvas image data

This website does not track visitors through canvas fingerprinting, a claim that can be verified by visiting the site using Tor Browser, which displays the warning shown below when a website attempts to extract any HTML5 canvas image data, even for legitimate uses of the canvas element such as verifying the emoji rendering capabilities of the browser.

IP addresses

When visitors elect to submit flag ratings within the popup applets that appear on the website’s ‘Grid’ page, their IP addresses are not logged. The integral security features of this website monitor all connections and log associated IP addresses for the purpose of limiting or blocking access from addresses for which malevolent or potentially harmful activity has been detected. General geolocation data is gleaned in the course of this security monitoring of IP addresses, but not the precise locations of individual visitors nor their actual identities. Security logs are retained for fourteen days. This use of IP addresses is innocuous, and it cannot be legitimately regarded as a violation of visitor privacy, even under the somewhat controversial guidelines of the EU GDPR.

Media uploads

Although the embedded fillable PDF form on the ‘Your Designs’ web page can receive text and image uploads if it is displayed in a web browser that is compatible with fillable forms, this website does not collect the text or images thus uploaded, nor does this website collect any location data (Exif GPS) that may be embedded in uploaded images.

Embedded content from other websites

The pages and the PDFs on this website include several links to external websites and to external PDFs, but this website cannot exert any privacy control over external content. Should you as a visitor to this website follow links to external websites or to PDFs that are hosted on such external websites, those external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their embedded content, including tracing your interaction with embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
