Plausible.io

Specifically for privacy reasons, we keep reliance on third-party services at a minimum and currently only use Sentry for error monitoring and Plausible Analytics to gather usage data.

It is completely up to you to activate “stealth mode” and add an additional safety layer to your privacy. Here is how it works. Just create a new email address that doesn’t have your name in it and exclusively use it to sign up for Journalistic. You can get free email accounts from Gmail, Yahoo! Mail, etc. In case of a data leak, your journal will be only one among thousands.

Journalistic

As we’ve seen, it is not possible to fulfill all four requirements we set simultaneously, so we have to prioritize and balance the cost versus benefit of each of the privacy strategies and accommodate for their incompatibilities. This is also where we’ll leave the realm of objectivity and enter the world of the opinionated design principles and ideologies behind Journalistic specifically (see About page).

GDPR.EU

We use Digital Ocean as our cloud service provider. DO is a US company, but the servers we rent from them are located in the European Union. European data protection rules (GDPR) therefore apply.
