Ki-Ki Websites and web tools

Cookies and analytics

This site doesn't use analytics or advertising. It uses Cloudflare's security cookies and a security check that records some technical details about each visiting device, to spot automated and abusive traffic.

Cookies

Ki-Ki doesn't set any cookies of its own.

Cloudflare sits in front of the site and may set a small number of security cookies, for example to recognise a browser that has already passed a security check or to tell people apart from automated traffic. These cookies don't identify you, aren't used for advertising, and expire quickly.

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), cookies that are strictly necessary to keep a website secure don't need consent.

Security check on each visit

A small script on this site reads some technical details from your browser and sends them, with the page you visited, to a Cloudflare Worker. This is a form of device fingerprinting. The details are:

  • screen size, platform, number of processor cores and device memory
  • timezone and the graphics hardware your browser reports
  • the page you visited and the page you came from

The Worker combines these with the request details Cloudflare already has, such as IP address and network, and assigns visitor and session IDs so related requests can be grouped. I use this only to detect and deal with automated, abusive or repeated probing of the site. It isn't used for advertising or to personalise content, and a fingerprint alone doesn't identify you by name.

I rely on the PECR exception for storage and access that is strictly necessary for the security of the site, which is why there is no consent banner.

Request logs

Like any website, every request to this site is handled by a server. Cloudflare keeps standard records of those requests, which can include:

  • your IP address and the country it's registered to
  • the page requested and the time of the request
  • your browser's user agent, which describes the browser and operating system
  • whether a security rule allowed, challenged or blocked the request

I use these records to keep the site online and to investigate attacks or abuse. Cloudflare keeps them for a limited period under its own retention rules. When a security rule is triggered, a summary of the request (IP address, country, network, page and browser) is sent to a private Discord channel so I can review it. If particular records are needed to deal with an incident, I keep a copy for as long as that incident needs and then delete it.

What this site doesn't use

No Google Analytics, advertising pixels, social media tracking tags or session recording. Nothing on this site follows you to other websites.
