This website is onet.com.au, the personal and consulting site of Steve Waddington, hosted on a private server in Australia.
This is a static website. It has no user accounts, no comments, and it does not set cookies or run analytics or advertising trackers.
Like almost every website, the web server keeps standard access logs, which record the IP address of visitors, the pages requested, and the browser type. These logs are used only for security and troubleshooting, stay on the server, and are deleted automatically on rotation after about two weeks.
If you use the contact form, the name, email address, and message you enter are sent to me as an email (delivered via SMTP2GO, a transactional email service). Your message is not stored on the website or in any database, and your details are used only to reply to you — they are never shared or added to any mailing list.
Pages load the IBM Plex typefaces from Google Fonts. Your browser requests those font files directly from Google's servers, which means Google receives your IP address as part of serving the files, as described in Google's own privacy policy.
Blog posts may include embedded content (for example videos or images hosted elsewhere). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you had visited the other website: those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
Beyond the short-lived server logs described above and any email you choose to send, this site does not retain visitor data.
If you have any questions about this policy, email stevew@onet.com.au.
