This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

The ads are on tv for new toys, the grocery store has had the packages of candy canes on the shelves for at least a month, tree decorations have been on display for 2 weeks or better, bags of pine cones are out for sale, & displays of Christmas cards are out. What’s really ironic, outside, beside the bundles of firewood, are 12″ pots of miniature roses that are still blooming.
Bah humbug!

We haven’t had a killing frost yet. My roses are still blooming.
But the leaves are mostly off the trees.
