Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Short version

Code Safari stores your reading preferences and saved articles in your browser's localStorage — none of that leaves your device. We use privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics to count page views; there are no advertising networks and no cross-site tracking.

What we collect

Code Safari does not collect personal information. We do not ask for your name, email address, or any identifying details to use the site.

The following data is stored locally in your browser and never transmitted to us:

  • Reading theme preference (dark / light / night)
  • Scroll position per article (for "Continue reading")
  • Read Later saved articles

You can clear all of this at any time by clearing your browser's site data for www.codesafari.blog.

Cookies

We do not use cookies. Theme and reading preferences are stored in localStorage, which is not transmitted with HTTP requests and is scoped entirely to your browser.

Imagery

Guide covers are generated in-house as vector graphics, rendered by your browser from the guide's name. They are not photographs and involve no external image requests.

Articles use a plain CSS gradient rather than photography, so no external image services are contacted while you read.

Analytics

We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand which pages are read and roughly where visitors come from. It is cookieless, collects no personal information, and does not track you across other sites. We never see who you are — only aggregate counts.

Third-party services

The site is hosted on Vercel, which also provides the analytics described above. The ambient player uses an audio file bundled with the site, so playing it makes no external request. Beyond Vercel, no other third-party services are used — no ad networks, no social trackers.

Service worker and offline cache

Code Safari uses a service worker to cache article pages for offline reading. Cached content is stored in your browser and is not shared with us or any third party. You can clear the service worker cache through your browser's developer tools.

Children

Code Safari is a technical learning resource for developers. It is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect any information from them.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes materially, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect that. We won't bury changes.
