What we keep
We keep the note only: the words you write, the colour you choose, whether it has been checked, and the day and minute it was added and checked. We don’t ask for your name or email. We keep no device details, cookie or anything else that could say who wrote a note, and the page sets no cookie.
We never store anything that identifies you. To stop floods, we count the notes from each connection with a scrambled code that can’t be turned back into an address, changes every day and is deleted within 24 hours. It is never kept with a note and says nothing about who you are.
Before a note is sent, your device does a quick check that it is a person, not a program. The check runs on your device and on this site only: nothing is sent to anyone else, and nothing about you is kept.
For how long
- A note waiting to be checked is kept until a moderator decides.
- A note that goes on the board stays on it while the board runs.
- A note that isn’t put on the board is deleted 30 days after the decision.
Who reads it
The moderators at Empowered Insights read every note before it can appear, and only they can see notes that are waiting or were not put on the board. Once a note is on the board, anyone visiting this page can read it, so please leave out names of people and details of your case.
