  <h1>Privacy</h1>
  <p class="lede">Thermograph is free, has no ads, and needs no account. It is built so that
     there is very little about you to collect in the first place.</p>

  <h2>Your location</h2>
  <p>Thermograph never looks up your location from your IP address. The only way the site
     learns where you are is if you press <b>Use my location</b>, which asks your browser for
     permission. You can decline, and picking a place on the map works just as well.</p>
  <p>Whichever way you choose a place, the coordinates are sent to the server only as part of
     the ordinary request for that grid square's climate data, and are not logged beyond the
     normal web-server request handling every site does. The place you picked is remembered in
     your own browser's local storage, not on the server, so clearing your browser data
     forgets it.</p>

  <h2>Analytics</h2>
  <p>There is no analytics library, no cookies for tracking, and no per-visitor identifier.
     The server keeps simple aggregate counts (how many people opened a page or tapped a
     button, and which site referred them) with nothing tying any of it to an individual.</p>

  <h2>Email</h2>
  <p>If you sign up for the monthly digest, your address is used for that digest and nothing
     else. It is never sold or shared, and every message can unsubscribe you.</p>

  <h2>Accounts</h2>
  <p>An account is optional and only exists to hold weather alerts you have asked for. It
     stores your email address and the places you are watching.</p>
