The whole of it

This site does not follow anybody around. It carries a single input, it does a single thing with what goes into it, and that thing is to forward whatever address was typed straight to me. No other detail is kept; nothing here needs an account.

Should any line of this be altered, the revised text goes up on this page and the date beneath the title is moved to the day of the change. That date tells you which version you are reading.

What the page pulls in

There is no measurement script, no cookie, no beacon, no advertising tag, no replay of your session. Typefaces, pictures and stylesheets are all served out of this folder — nothing whatever is fetched from an outside host, so no third party ever learns of the visit.

Request logs are kept by the host, as hosts do. I neither add to those logs nor mine them.

Because nothing here follows a reader from one site to the next, a browser sending a “do not track” request finds nothing to turn off; the page treats the visit the same way with the signal or without it.

The one field on the site

An address typed into that field reaches my inbox as email. Two suppliers handle it on the way and no one beyond them: the host of this site, whose function takes the submission, and the mail service that delivers the message. Neither puts it to any use of its own. Nothing writes it into a store, a distribution list or an ad segment; nothing hands it on and nothing sells it. It exists so I can reply. Say the word and it goes.

Automated traffic is held off by a counter watching how many posts one address on the network has made lately. It lives in memory, evaporates by itself, is never persisted, and pins nothing to a person.

Calls to the line, and shops already running

Ring the line in the header and a machine answers, and you may be recorded on it. Every word of a call comes off it typed out, and a recording comes off it too whenever one is made — the outfits whose gear carries the talking end of the service hold whatever there is, not for long, before destroying it. Until then I have the use of it, which is what keeps the demo working and lets me see for myself how it answered. Those records go on no list, to no buyer and to no partner. Hanging up finishes the call, though not that brief holding period, and there is no call in the other direction.

Should a caller dictate where to email the write-up and agree to have it sent, that email address is put to one purpose: delivering the write-up of that call, through an outside mail service. Nothing else is done with it.

Where an agent is already fitted, everything it hears — highway, exit, rig, fault, the driver’s number — goes straight to that shop. That material is the shop’s, and I hold no claim over it.
