Privacy

Privacy Policy

Exorbit Space is a static, ad-free educational site. This page describes the little data handling that exists.

Summary

The short version

No advertising, no third-party analytics, no tracking pixels, and no sale of data. Pages are static files; there are no accounts on exorbit.space.

Details

What is processed and why

Server logs

Like almost every website, the web server records standard access logs (IP address, user agent, requested URL, timestamp). They are used for security, debugging, and the aggregate visitor counter shown in the footer. The published counter contains only aggregate totals - never IPs or identifiers.

Local storage

Your theme preference (light/dark/auto) is stored in your browser's localStorage under the key 'exorbit-theme'. It never leaves your device. A service worker caches static assets for speed and offline reading.

Self-hosted assets

Fonts, math rendering (MathJax), icons, and 3D libraries are served from exorbit.space itself, so page views do not trigger requests to third-party CDNs.

Live data snapshots

News headlines, satellite summaries, and ephemeris data shown on pages are fetched server-side and republished as static JSON. Your browser only talks to exorbit.space.

Live chat

If you use the live-chat widget where available, the messages you type are transmitted to the site's own chat backend so the team can respond. Do not share sensitive personal data in chat.

Subdomains

Apps hosted on subdomains (for example the Grade 4 space course at g4.exorbit.space, which offers optional accounts) publish their own notices in-app.

Your choices

Control and contact

You can clear localStorage and the service-worker cache at any time from your browser settings. The site remains fully usable with JavaScript disabled, minus the interactive 3D scenes.
