The Sandbox Notebook
Open-ended games, written down
This site is a set of static pages. The short version of this policy is that it does not know who you are and has no way of finding out.
Every page on this site is a plain HTML document served with its own stylesheet, script and images. There is no tracking of any kind, no advertising, no accounts and no content loaded from anywhere other than this domain.
There is nothing to register for and no way to create an account. No page on this site contains a form, a comment field, a search box that sends anything anywhere, or an upload of any kind. Because no input is ever collected, none can be stored or shared.
No analytics platform is used. There is no page-view counter, no session recording, no heatmap, no scroll tracking, no event logging and no first-party measurement script. Nobody is counting how many people read any of these entries, including whoever writes them.
These pages carry no advertising, no sponsored placements, no affiliate links and no tracking pixels. No advertising network, social platform or data broker receives anything as a result of your reading this page, because nothing on it contacts any of them.
Every asset on this site is served from this domain: the stylesheet, the single script file, the images, and the icon in the corner of your browser tab. There are no hosted fonts, no content delivery networks, no embedded video players, no social widgets, no comment platforms and no consent-management scripts.
This matters in practice because embedded third-party assets are the usual way a static site leaks information about its readers. Requesting a font or a script from an external host tells that host your address, your browser and the page you were reading. Nothing here makes such a request.
This site sets no cookies. The one script it loads handles the sections button on narrow screens, prints the current year in the footer, and animates a figure when it scrolls into view. It writes nothing to local storage, session storage or IndexedDB, and it reads nothing from them.
If your browser shows any stored data for this domain, it did not come from these pages.
Whoever hosts these files may keep ordinary server logs — a request line, a timestamp, a response code, an address. That is a function of web hosting rather than a choice made by this site, and such records are not consulted here for any purpose, not aggregated, not analysed and not combined with anything else.
The entries occasionally discuss games, studios and tools by name. Where a link leaves this domain, the destination is governed entirely by its own policies and this one stops applying at the moment you follow it. No information about you is passed along with such a link beyond what your browser sends to any site you visit.
This site is written for adults but collects nothing from anybody of any age. There is no mechanism by which a reader of any age could supply personal information, because no such mechanism exists on any page.
If this site ever adds anything that collects or transmits information — which is not planned — this page will describe it before the change goes live rather than afterwards. In the meantime, what is written above is the whole of it: static documents, local assets, and no measurement.
