Analytics

Anonymous visit counts measured with Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool we host ourselves — it sets no cookies, stores no personal information, and shares nothing with third parties. These numbers directly support our grant funding and guide site improvements, so analytics is on by default; turn it off here and we record nothing about your visits.
