Privacy

Deep Field is a folder of static files. It has no accounts, no login, no comment system, no newsletter and no database. Nothing you do here is written down by this site.

What the site itself stores

One thing, in your browser, and only if you use it: your choice of the night or day theme, kept in localStorage under the key df-theme. It never leaves your device and is not readable by anyone else. Clearing your browser data removes it.

Server logs

Whoever hosts these files will keep standard web-server logs — IP address, timestamp, requested path, user agent — because that is how web servers work. Deep Field does not read them for anything other than diagnosing a broken page, and does not connect them to anything.

Images and links

Photographs are served from the publishers' own CDNs — NASA, ESA/Hubble, ESA/Webb, ESO, NOIRLab and others — so loading a page means your browser contacts those hosts. They can see your IP address and user agent, as they would if you visited them directly. Every headline links out to the publisher, and once you follow a link you are on their site under their policies.

Advertising

This site carries banner advertising through Google AdSense. Ad networks set their own cookies and identifiers to measure and target advertising, and that data is governed by the network's policy rather than this one. Where the law requires a consent prompt before those cookies are set, the network's own consent tooling handles it.

If you would rather not see personalised advertising, Google's controls are at myadcenter.google.com, and industry-wide opt-outs are at optout.aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.eu.

Analytics

None. There is no analytics script on this site.

Children

Deep Field is not directed at children under 13 and collects nothing from anyone, including them.
