The site is run using a local install of WordPress configured to neither send data through third-party servers nor save any cookies on your device. There are two exceptions, however: firstly, if you enter a password to access a page, a cookie is set to show you that page even if you refresh it. And secondly, if you log in to edit content, user account information is saved on your computer in the form of a cookie and log-in data is saved to the database on our server.
