# Privacy & Analytics — Luca Del Puppo

> How https://delpuppo.net handles privacy: cookieless Vercel Web Analytics, strictly necessary local storage, and no third-party tracking pixels.

- **Canonical URL**: https://delpuppo.net/privacy/
- **Contact**: luca@delpuppo.net
- **Root LLMs Index**: https://delpuppo.net/llms.txt

## Web Analytics (Vercel Web Analytics)

- **No cookies** — nothing is written to a cookie jar, cookie absence alone does not establish a consent exemption.
- **Anonymous statistics** — Vercel documents anonymous data points used for aggregated statistics.
- **No cross-site tracking** — Vercel documents request-derived visitor hashes, with visitor sessions discarded after 24 hours.
- **Aggregate only** — top pages, referrers, countries, devices, and browsers; never individual visitors.

## Stored In Your Browser (localStorage)

- `puppo-theme` — light or dark theme choice.
- `puppo-reading-size` — larger reading size preference for long articles.

Both are strictly necessary preferences, never leave the device, and are removed by clearing browser storage.

## Hosting & Third Parties

- Hosted on Vercel, which serves the static build and processes the request data described above.
- Articles are syndicated to Hashnode and Dev.to, which have their own privacy policies.
- Social links (GitHub, LinkedIn, YouTube, X), the RSS feed, and every LLMs.txt endpoint are plain links or static files — no embeds, no pixels, no SDKs.

## Your Choices

- Consent requirements depend on applicable law and the configured processing. See [Vercel’s privacy documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/analytics/privacy-policy).
- Using a content blocker can prevent the analytics script from loading; the site keeps working exactly the same way.
