This page describes how www.somersetwlc.co.uk handles visit data on its own static pages, and how that differs from any site reached by following an outbound link from here.
Covers only search-arrival visits and outbound clicks
The site records a small set of details, but only when a visitor arrives from a search engine. It does not track every visit.
- The page path being viewed
- The type of event (a page view or a click on an outbound button)
- The name of the referring search engine
- The text of a clicked outbound button
- The country reported by the content delivery network for the request, with no more precise location
This information is used only to count page views and clicks on outbound buttons. It is used for the site's own traffic counting and for nothing else.
Uses one short-lived cookie and one session flag
Two small mechanisms support that counting, and both are limited in scope and lifespan.
- A first-party cookie is set only when a visit arrives from a search engine. It holds nothing but the name of that search engine, is kept for up to one hour, and is used only to match a later outbound-link click back to the search engine that brought the visitor here.
- A session view flag is kept in the browser for the current session only, so that a single page view is counted once rather than multiple times.
Neither mechanism sets a persistent identifier, and no other browser storage is used.
Runs as static files with no external subresources
The pages themselves are self-contained. Fonts are embedded locally rather than loaded from an outside source, and no file needed to display a page is fetched from another domain.
- The site is a set of static files served by a content delivery network, which handles the technical delivery of every request as the hosting provider.
- Recorded visit data is stored in the operator's own logs on the same domain, not passed to an outside analytics service.
- No third-party analytics is used, and no third-party or advertising cookies are set.
Sends outbound link clicks through a first-party redirect
Outbound links to third-party sites do not hand visitor data to the partner directly. A click first goes to a path on this domain and is then redirected to the partner site.
- Stored visit data is not shared with the partner as part of that redirect.
- Once the redirect completes, the partner site receives the request directly from the visitor's browser and keeps its own separate record of that visit.
- This site does not control what a partner site does with that request, and this page describes only the behaviour of www.somersetwlc.co.uk itself.
Has no forms, contact channels, or personal-data collection
Several categories of collection and contact are confirmed absent from this build, which is why no consent step, account, or personal detail is ever requested here.
- No forms are present anywhere on the site.
- No third-party analytics services receive visit data.
- No external subresources are loaded from other domains.
- No contact channels exist on the site.
- No names, e-mail addresses, account identifiers, or payment details are collected.
- No login, registration, or user account exists, and no personal data about an individual visitor is retained.
Because none of these channels exist, there is no place on this site to submit personal data, and no such submission should be attempted through it. Any site reached through an outbound link is a separate destination with its own practices, outside the scope of this page.
