In short
Refract is a static blog. There are no accounts, no newsletter, no comments, and no visitor analytics. We set no cookies of our own and run no tracking scripts. The only personal data that reaches us is what you send by email.
What we collect
Email you send us. If you write to breezewing4@gmail.com, we receive your address and whatever you put in the message. We use it only to reply, to act on your suggestion, or to correct a post.
Server access logs. The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which automatically records requests — IP address, browser/user-agent, the URL requested, and the time. This is how the pages are delivered and how abuse is blocked. We do not build visitor profiles from these logs and do not download them.
Cookies · third parties
We set no cookies and use no analytics or advertising scripts today. Two third parties are involved simply because the site runs on them:
- Cloudflare — hosting and CDN (see the access logs above).
- jsDelivr (cdn.jsdelivr.net) — the page loads its webfont (Pretendard) from this CDN, so your IP address and browser information reach jsDelivr when the font is fetched. We receive nothing from it.
Email sent to the address above is handled by Google (Gmail).
If we ever run ads
There are no ads on this site at present. If we later run third-party ads (for example Google AdSense), Google and its partners may use cookies or device identifiers to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. This page is generated from the same switch that turns the ad code on, so it changes in the same release and will describe how to opt out — Google’s ad settings at google.com/settings/ads and the industry opt-out at aboutads.info/choices.
Retention
Email is kept while we are handling your question and any correction that follows, then deleted. Access logs live and expire inside Cloudflare under its own retention policy; we keep no copy.
Your choices
Write to breezewing4@gmail.com to see, correct, or delete anything you have sent us, and we will do it promptly. You can also block the webfont CDN in your browser — the site stays readable with a fallback font.
Where your request is handled
The site is served from Cloudflare’s global network, so a request is answered by the data centre nearest to you — which may sit in a country other than your own. Refract is run by one person, and the address below is the contact point for any question, correction, deletion request or complaint about this policy.
