Rules & Record

Privacy

This site collects nothing about the people who read it. That is the whole policy. The rest of this page explains what "nothing" covers, names the one company that necessarily sees your request because it serves the page, and shows you how to verify the claim without taking our word for it.

A parent usually finds this site mid-disagreement with a school district, which is a bad moment to wonder who is watching. So the answer is built into the site rather than promised on a page: there is nothing here that could collect anything.

01What we collect

Nothing, and the specifics of nothing

There are no accounts and no way to make one. There are no forms, no search box that sends anything anywhere, no newsletter signup, no comments, no uploads. The state finder on the homepage is a grid of ordinary links; clicking one loads a page, and nothing is recorded about which one you clicked.

The site sets no cookies. It writes nothing to your browser's storage. It runs no analytics of any kind, first-party or third-party. It loads nothing at all from another company: no fonts, no scripts, no embeds, no tag manager, no content delivery network. The only things a page asks for are its own text, its stylesheet, and its logo, every one of them served from this domain. That is why the pages use the typefaces already on your computer rather than prettier ones from a font service — a request to a font service would tell that company you were here, so the site does not make one.

There is no advertising and no tracking pixel, because there is nothing to sell you. We have no data about you to sell, share, or lose, and no plans to acquire any. There is nothing to buy, no account to create, and no part of this site that sits behind a payment; if that ever changes, or if anything here ever begins collecting information about you, it will be described on this page before it launches, not after.

Every page links out to state education agency documents, and the footer links to Field Assembly. Following a link takes you to someone else's site, where their rules apply and not ours. We have no control over what a state agency's website does, and we would encourage the same skepticism there that we are inviting here.

02The host

What Cloudflare necessarily sees

The pages are served by Cloudflare. Delivering a web page requires a server to receive the request, so Cloudflare's network sees the address you asked for, your IP address, and your browser's user agent, in the same way the postal service sees an envelope it carries. This is not a choice the site makes; it is what serving a page is. Cloudflare's handling of that traffic is governed by their privacy policy, not ours.

What we control is what we ask Cloudflare to keep and what we look at. Their Web Analytics product is switched off for this site, and we have set up no export and no live stream of request logs, so no record of an individual request reaches us or leaves Cloudflare. We hold no per-visitor log and have no means of consulting one.

Cloudflare does keep request data of its own, and that is what produces the single figure we can see: a count of how many requests the site served. It names nobody, we do not break it down further, and we could not identify a reader from it if we tried. How long Cloudflare keeps that underlying data, and what they do with it, is governed by their policy rather than ours, which is the honest limit of what this page can promise you.

03Correspondence

If you write to us

The one way this site can learn anything about you is if you choose to tell us, by writing to hello@fieldassembly.net. That is ordinary email: it arrives in a mailbox, it sits there, and it is read by a person.

Please do not send us your child's name, school, diagnosis, or case details. We do not need any of it. A correction can be made from the sentence you are correcting and the state document that contradicts it, and a page can be fixed without knowing anything about the family who found the error. If you send those details anyway we will not repeat them, publish them, or record them in the change log, which names what was corrected and never who reported it.

Correspondence is used to answer you and to fix the page, and for nothing else. It is not added to a mailing list, because there is no mailing list. It is not shared with any state agency, school district, parent center, advocacy group, or law firm. Correction threads are deleted within twelve months of the correction being made; the correction itself stays on the record permanently, in the change log of the page it affected.

04Verification

How to check this yourself

Every page on this site is built on the principle that a reader can consult the source rather than trust the summary, and this page holds to the same standard. The claim above can be audited in about thirty seconds, on this page or any other.

In Chrome, Edge, or Firefox, press F12 and choose the Network tab, then reload the page. In Safari, enable the Develop menu in Settings, then Develop › Show Web Inspector and choose Network. You will see every request the page makes. All of them should point at rulesandrecord.com and nowhere else. Check the Application tab (Storage in Firefox and Safari) for cookies and local storage; both should be empty.

If you ever find a request going somewhere we have not named on this page, that is a defect and we want to hear about it. It will be fixed and recorded like any other correction.

05Changes

If this changes

A privacy policy that gains a tracking section without saying so is worse than no policy at all, so the commitment here is about sequence: this page changes before the site does. If anything on it stops being true, the page will say what changed and on what date, and the old wording stays legible in the change record instead of disappearing.

Questions or corrections: hello@fieldassembly.net.
