Your privacy matters
How MenApplause handles reading preferences, hosting logs and external links.
Read without an account
You do not need to register to read MenApplause. There are no public comments, newsletter forms, advertising pixels or behavioural analytics enabled on this site.
Preferences stay in your browser
Light or dark mode and text-size preferences are stored locally in your browser. Local and staging previews also use a design preference cookie. These settings do not identify you and are not sent to an advertising service.
Search and hosting
Search runs on this site. Your query appears in the page address and may remain in your browser history. This site is hosted by Cloudflare; request logging is configured to omit query strings. Technical access logs may contain IP addresses and browser information. We do not use searches to create health-interest profiles.
External sources
When you choose to read at a publisher, that organisation’s own privacy policy applies. MenApplause sends no referrer information on outbound links. Our pages do not embed publisher tracking counters. Any future licensed republication that requires one must first be assessed and disclosed.
Contact
The project owner is Ross Gerring. Privacy questions can be sent to ross@itomic.com.au. Please do not include private health details. Technical logs support reliability and abuse prevention and are retained for Cloudflare’s configured service retention period. Contact us with questions about their use or retention.
Article summaries and AI
Article checks and summaries use Cloudflare-hosted AI. We send public source text, not reader searches or health answers.
