Prosocial Apps

Privacy

This website

No analytics. No cookies. No third-party requests of any kind, which includes webfonts: a hosted font is a request to somebody else's server carrying your IP address and the page you were reading, and a site whose apps promise to send nothing cannot open by quietly sending something.

The site is static files. There is no server-side code, no database, and nothing that could hold a record of this visit even in principle.

Access logs are switched off at the CDN. Not minimised, not rotated: off.

The apps

Stronger, because they need no network at all.

There is nothing here to sell, share or broker, because none of it is gathered in the first place.

Why it is written this way

"We take your privacy seriously" is what a policy says when the answer is complicated. The answer here is short, and short answers can be checked.

You can check this one. The apps are single HTML files: open one in a text editor, search it for a URL, and see for yourself. Open your browser's network tab while it runs and watch it stay empty. That is a better guarantee than anything on this page, because it does not require believing us.

The promise is enforced, not just written

Every page here is served with a content security policy that the browser applies whether we like it or not. Part of it reads:

connect-src 'none'

That forbids every kind of outbound request a page can make: fetch, XMLHttpRequest, WebSocket, sendBeacon. It is not a setting we can quietly undo on one page, and it applies to the apps as much as to this text.

So if some future edit here introduced a tracker by accident, it would not leak. It would fail. That is a weaker promise than "we would never" and a much more useful one, because it does not depend on us keeping our word.

The policy also denies geolocation, the camera, the microphone, payment and ad-topic APIs outright, and access logs are switched off at the CDN.
