Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 3, 2026

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how HomesteadLine (homesteadline.org) handles information when you visit this website. This site does not collect personal data in the course of normal browsing. No accounts, no registration, no login.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

HomesteadLine does not:

  • Require user accounts or registration.
  • Store personal data from visitors in any database.
  • Use advertising tracking pixels or advertising networks.
  • Sell or share visitor data with third parties.

3. Contact Form

The contact form on the About page collects a name, email address, optional phone number, and message text when you choose to submit it. This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry. Form submissions are not stored on a server — the form operates as a client-side simulation for demonstration purposes on this static site.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

This site uses browser localStorage — not a cookie in the traditional sense — to remember whether you have responded to the cookie consent banner. No tracking identifiers, session tokens, or analytics data are stored. The stored value is a simple acknowledgement of your Accept or Reject choice. It can be cleared at any time through your browser's site data settings.

5. Third-Party Fonts

This site loads the Inter and JetBrains Mono typefaces from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com). When your browser requests these font files, Google's servers may log your IP address and browser user agent as part of their standard server logging. This is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

6. External Images

Photographs used on this site are hosted on Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org). When your browser loads these images, Wikimedia's servers may log standard request data including your IP address. This is governed by the Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy.

7. Server Logs

The server hosting this site may maintain standard web server access logs that include IP addresses, browser user agents, and pages accessed. These logs are used for server maintenance and security purposes and are not processed for profiling or advertising.

8. Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect information from minors.

9. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site following a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
