This page explains what happens on justdavebooks.com when a page loads and when a link is followed. It covers only what the site itself does, and it does not describe the practices of any site reached through an outbound link.
Visit Counting
When a visitor arrives from a search engine, the site records a small set of details tied to that visit: the path of the page, the type of event, the name of the referring search engine, and the text of any outbound button that gets clicked. This information is used only to count page views and outbound button clicks — nothing more. It is not used to build a profile, identify an individual, or track behavior across visits.
To make sure a single page view is not counted twice, the site keeps one flag in the browser for the current session. This flag exists only while the browsing session is active and serves no other purpose. The site does not set cookies, does not use any other browser storage, and does not assign a persistent identifier to any visitor. Once the session ends, nothing is left behind that could tie a future visit back to a past one.
Pages and Links
Every page on this site is self-contained: the fonts, styling, and other resources a page needs are all served from this same domain, rather than pulled in from outside services while the page is displayed. The site is hosted as static files distributed through a content delivery network, which handles the technical delivery of each request as its hosting provider. No forms are present anywhere on the site, so there is no channel through which a visitor could submit personal details such as a name, an e-mail address, or payment information, and none of that kind of data is collected, stored, or retained.
Outbound links to third-party sites work through a first-party redirect: following a link first passes through a path on this domain before continuing on to the partner site. This step does not involve sharing any stored visitor data with the partner, because the site does not store visitor data to begin with. Once the redirect completes, the destination site receives the request directly from the visitor's browser and keeps whatever record it keeps on its own terms. This site has no influence over, and no visibility into, what a linked destination does with that request.
Reading This Page Correctly
Because there are no forms, no third-party analytics, no external subresources, and no contact channels on this site, there is nothing here that asks a visitor to hand over personal information, and nothing here that requires a consent decision, an account, or a login. The absence of these features is a description of how the site is built, not a promise about any other website. Visitors should treat every third-party destination reached through an outbound link as a separate site with its own practices, and should be cautious about submitting personal details anywhere other than a channel they trust directly. This page speaks only for the static files that make up justdavebooks.com, and stops the moment a link takes a visitor elsewhere.
