Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how wandt.us collects, uses, and protects your data when you visit this website. The site is designed with privacy-first principles while maintaining necessary security and analytics logging.

Data Collection & First-Party Analytics

This website utilizes a privacy-centric, first-party analytics system hosted entirely on Cloudflare edge infrastructure. We do not use third-party analytics trackers (such as Google Analytics) and we do not sell or share your data with advertisers.

When you visit wandt.us, our servers automatically capture routine network and connection metadata. This includes:

  • Your IP address and the associated Internet Service Provider (ASN)
  • General geo-location data (city, region, country) derived from your IP address
  • Browser user-agent string and referrer URLs
  • Pages visited and timestamps

Cookies & Session Tracking

To differentiate unique visits and understand site navigation paths, this website sets a strictly necessary, first-party cookie (__cf_vid) containing a randomly generated identifier. This cookie is secure, HttpOnly, and serves solely for internal analytics and security auditing.

Use of Information

The metadata collected is used exclusively for:

  • Internal site analytics and performance monitoring
  • Identifying and mitigating malicious automated traffic (bot detection)
  • Real-time security alerting for site administration

Data Retention

Analytics logs are securely stored in a first-party database and are routinely rotated or purged when no longer needed for security or statistical purposes.
