Analytics

We use server-side analytics via nginx access log processing (Matomo self-hosted). No JavaScript tracker, no cookies, no personal data — only page URLs, anonymised IP addresses, and browser user-agent strings are processed for aggregate visitor statistics. You cannot be tracked across websites, and there are no analytics cookies to consent to or disable.
