This website uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager to track basic usage, and non-identifying information is collected by Google and stored on their servers. I can see how many times the site is viewed, what portions of the site have the most interaction, and the general region where visitors are located.

In practical terms that means I'm not actively collecting info about you. If you use the contact form I'll have an email address and name, but you could always use a fake name if submitting information online worries you. I can see data pertaining to referrals from other sites, meaning if you shared the link on Facebook and your friend clicked that link to come here, I can see that a new visitor found my site via Facebook. Like a gas station security camera, I can see people are coming and going, but I wouldn't be able to pick you out of a lineup.

Traffic on this site is also encrypted, so even if I could save information about you, I can't really do anything with it. The physical equivalent would be like turning a smoothie back into a banana. Well, maybe not quite like that, but you get the idea. It's prohibitively difficult.

Long story short, Google knows when and where you go to the bathroom, and you are completely anonymous to me.
