Visit counts
The site's pages load Google Analytics to count visits. Your browser fetches it from Google and tells it which pages you open; what Google does with that is set out in Google's own privacy policy.
The text edition (/lite) and the widgets other sites embed load nothing of it.
The banner
The banner at the top and foot of pages comes from the site's own advertising service, Per5ian. To show it, your browser fetches the list of current banners from api.per5ian.com, the banner's animation from lottie.host and the animation player from unpkg.com.
What stays in your browser
A few choices and copies are kept in your own browser, on your device:
- Two cookies, for a year: lang (the language you chose) and theme (light or dark).
- Your watchlist (up to 20 networks and sites you follow), which navigation groups you folded, the list or grid view on /check, and, if you saved it, the offline copy of the blocklist index.
- For the tab you are in only: the pages you opened in the in-country browser, for its Back and Forward, and whether you folded the status banner.
- Copies of pages and readings the site has shown you, so it can still be read when your connection fails; each says how old it is.
Clearing this site's data in your browser removes all of it.
Measuring from inside Iran
When you check a domain live, or open a page in the in-country browser, the site fetches it from a consumer connection inside Iran and from a server abroad. Nothing about you travels with that request: not your address, not your browser, not your cookies.
