Privacy

What this site collects, in full: nothing. Here is what that means concretely, and what your browser keeps on its own.

Most privacy pages describe what is collected and why it is fine. This one describes an absence, which is shorter and easier to verify — and verifiable is the point, because a claim nobody can check is worth nothing.

No analytics, no cookies, no third parties

There is no analytics script, no tag manager, no embedded video, no web font from someone else's server, and no social widget. The site sets no cookies of any kind — not for measurement and not for preferences.

That is not a promise on our word. Every address the built site references is checked at build time, and a request to any host other than this one fails the build. You can confirm it yourself: open the developer tools, reload, and look at what was requested.

What your browser stores locally

Two small values, on your device, readable by nobody but you. They are never sent anywhere because there is nowhere to send them.

The language you picked
So that choosing French once does not have to be repeated on every page. Stored under wisq.lang in local storage.
Whether you dismissed the install banner
So that a banner you said no to stops asking. Stored under wisq.install.dismissed.

The service worker also keeps a copy of the pages you have read, so the site works with no network. That cache lives on your device and is cleared with the site's data like anything else.

Clearing site data in your browser removes all of it. Nothing is restored from anywhere, because nothing left.

What the host sees

The site is static files served by GitHub Pages. GitHub receives the requests, and therefore sees what any web server sees: an IP address, a user agent, and which files were asked for. That is theirs, governed by GitHub's privacy statement, and outside what this project controls. It is stated here rather than omitted because omitting it would make the paragraph above misleading.

The app is a separate matter

wisq itself sends nothing to us either — there is no account, no telemetry, and no server of ours anywhere in the path. It talks to machines you already have, on addresses you type in. Passwords live in the iPhone Keychain; the machine list is plain JSON on your device and contains no secret.

Changes, and how to ask

If any of this ever stops being true, it changes here first and in the changelog at the same time. If something on this page is unclear or looks wrong, open an issue — that is a better outcome for everyone than a quiet assumption.
