Nothing. No analytics run on this site. No tracking pixels. No cookies that identify you. No third-party scripts watching what you click. When you load a page, the server logs the request because that's how the internet works. Your IP, the file you asked for, the time. Those logs are kept for a few days to catch abuse, then they're deleted. They are not looked at unless something breaks.
When you write to northsline@protonmail.com, what you send is seen and kept for reply purposes. Your email address, your name if you put one, and whatever you wrote. Those emails are kept so a reply is possible. They are not shared with anyone. No mailing list. Your address is not sold. To request deletion of an old email from you, just ask and it will be done.
Heron is a piece of hardware you own. It runs on your network. It talks to your router and nothing else. The DNS queries it watches stay on the device, on your local network. Nothing leaves the network. There is no way to receive your data because no server exists that your device reports to. If you don't believe that, read the firmware - it's open source under the MIT license.
This website makes no third-party requests. Fonts are self-hosted. No external scripts, no analytics, no CDN calls. Your browser talks only to the server.
No visitor profiles are built. No retargeting. No Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, Hotjar, or any other surveillance tool. Your browsing history is not stored. Your device is not fingerprinted. If anything is ever added that changes this, it will be stated here in plain words before it goes live.
Under GDPR (EU) and similar laws, you can ask what data is held about you. The honest answer is almost nothing. If you've sent an email, the address is on file. That's it. You can ask for it to be deleted, corrected, or sent to you as a copy. Email northsline@protonmail.com and it will be done within a reasonable time.
Northsline is based in Italy. If you have a question about privacy, email northsline@protonmail.com. You'll get a real reply.
If data handling changes, this page is updated and the date at the top is bumped. It will not be silently rewritten. The last version is the one you're reading now.
