TAMPER SIGNAL

Privacy

Trust receipts, not vibes — and that includes how this site treats you.

Last updated: 2026-06-16

The short version. This site uses privacy-respecting analytics to understand what’s useful. Nothing that identifies you is stored until you click Allow analytics in the consent banner. Decline and we collect nothing. You can change your mind any time via .

Who runs this site

tampersignal.com is the website for Tamper Signal, an open-source project for signed receipts on data pipelines. The site is a set of static pages hosted on GitHub Pages. There are no user accounts, no logins, and no forms that collect personal information.

What we collect

With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to measure aggregate, anonymized usage — which pages are visited, roughly where visitors come from, and what’s popular. We use this only to decide what to improve. We do not sell your data, and we don’t use it to build advertising profiles about you.

Consent comes first

We use Google Consent Mode v2, configured to deny analytics and advertising storage by default. In plain terms: when you arrive, the analytics tag loads but is blocked from storing or reading cookies until you choose. You’ll see a banner with two options:

Cookies and local storage

We store your consent choice in your browser’s localStorage under the key ts_consent (a single value: granted or denied). This is a preference, not a tracker, and it never leaves your browser — it’s what lets us remember not to ask you again.

Only after you click Allow analytics does Google Analytics set its own cookies (for example _ga) to count returning vs. new visits. If you decline, those cookies are never set.

Changing or withdrawing consent

Click here or in the footer of any page to reopen the banner and change your choice. You can also clear site data for tampersignal.com in your browser, or use private/incognito browsing, and you’ll be asked fresh next time.

Third parties

Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are provided by Google. When analytics is enabled, your browser communicates with Google’s servers. Google’s handling of that data is governed by their own privacy policy. The site is served by GitHub Pages, which may process standard request logs as described in GitHub’s privacy statement.

Your rights

Because we don’t collect names, emails, or accounts, we hold no personal profile to look up, export, or delete. The controls above (decline, withdraw consent, clear site data) put you in charge of all analytics data collection on this site.
