Privacy
What this site knows about you
Almost nothing. True Inspiring Stories is a collection of static files. There is no account to create, nothing to log in to, and no tracking built into these pages.
What we do not do
- No analytics, no measurement scripts, no tracking pixels.
- No advertising and no advertising networks.
- No cookies set by this site.
- No accounts, comments, newsletter or contact forms.
- Nothing about you is sold, rented or shared, because nothing is collected to begin with.
The only script that runs on a story page is the thin reading-progress bar at the top of the screen. It reads how far down the page you have scrolled, keeps that number in the browser, and sends it nowhere.
What happens anyway
The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes the technical details of a request — IP address, time, which file was asked for, the user agent string — in order to deliver the page and to protect against attacks and abuse. That handling is governed byCloudflare’s privacy policy, not by this one. We do not build profiles from it and do not use it for marketing.
Leaving the site
Some pages link out to YouTube and Pinterest. Once you follow one of those links you are on their property and their rules apply, including whatever they choose to collect. We do not embed their trackers here to follow you around in advance.
Children
This site is written for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. Since nothing is collected from anyone, nothing is collected from children either.
Stories about real people
True Inspiring Stories writes about real people, usually from published accounts, obituaries, local news and public records. If you are — or you are related to — someone described in a story and you want a correction, a detail removed, or the piece taken down, write to us and say so. Corrections are made in public and the change stays visible in thecommit history.
Changes
If this policy changes, the revised version is published here and the date below changes with it. There is no mailing list to notify, by design.
