What is recorded when you read Channel & Spec.
Visit counts
We count visits through an analytics service in the EU: the page, the referring site, country, browser, device type and scroll depth. We set no cookies. A random visit number is kept in your browser's session storage and is gone when you close the tab.
Your choice comes first
Readers in Europe are asked before anything is counted, and nothing is sent unless they agree. Use ‘Statistics choice’ at the bottom of any page to change your answer.
Hosting
Our hosting provider keeps ordinary server logs, such as IP addresses and requested pages, for security and maintenance.
