Privacy

• –The pages you read, the links and buttons you click, and how far down a page you get.
• –Where you came from, by kind: a search engine, an AI assistant, a social site, a news site, or a link typed in.
• –Your screen’s size band (phone, tablet or desktop), light or dark theme, and your country and city, worked out from your IP address. The IP address itself is dropped and never stored.
• –Errors the site runs into, and how fast pages load.
• –Unless you decline: an anonymous replay of your visit, so we can see where a page is hard to follow. Everything you type is hidden in it, and search is never replayed.

• –What you search for. The search box’s text is never recorded or logged, by the site or in a replay; only how long a query was and how many results it found.
• –Anything about the authors of the posts AIDRAN measures. No author is ever shown on the site, and none is ever tracked.
• –Your name, your email address or anything else that says who you are. There are no accounts, no advertising and no selling of data.

To make releases and readings clearer and faster: to see which pages people read to the end, where they get lost, which conditions and sample posts they open, and which pages are slow or broken.

• –In the European Union, the rest of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland: you’re asked first, and nothing is counted until you choose. If AIDRAN can’t tell where you are, you’re asked first too.
• –Everywhere else: counting with the cookie starts when you arrive, and a notice says so. Decline stops the cookie and the replay, and switches to counting without a cookie.
• –With the cookie (Accept, or not declining where you aren’t asked first): one first-party cookie, set by aidran.ai, lets a return visit count as the same anonymous reader, and visits can be replayed as described above.
• –Decline: nothing is stored on your device. Pages are still counted, without a cookie, using a code PostHog works out on its servers that can’t follow you past a day. Nothing is replayed.
• –Where you read from is worked out on the site’s server from your connection, each time, and never stored or sent on.
• –Your choice is kept in this browser only. Clearing the site’s data clears it, and the question comes back.

The statistics go to PostHog, which stores them in the United States. Your browser sends them to aidran.ai’s own address, which passes them on, so the page talks to no other site. PostHog processes them on AIDRAN’s behalf.

The site’s servers also count, without any cookie, when a PDF, the feed, a sitemap or /llms.txt is fetched, and when a figure embedded on another site is shown, with that site’s address only. Requests are counted by the kind of program that made them (a browser, a search crawler, an AI assistant), never by who made them.

Replays are kept for 30 days and then deleted. The other statistics are kept while AIDRAN uses them to improve the site, and are never joined to anything that could name you.

A figure embedded on another site, and a page printed or saved as a PDF, run no statistics in your browser and set no cookie.

Write to hello@aidran.ai about anything on this page, or to ask what is held about a visit.
