Who runs this site

Keyboard Workshop is an independent hobbyist technical-record project.

What is public

The site information pages — this one, About, Editorial Standards, Terms and Contact — are open to anyone. Information pages are public. Published modification guides are public. Unpublished or incomplete drafts are not offered on the public site.

Data used for staff access

Staff sign in to the editorial system with an account that holds their email address, a password (stored hashed by the content-management software) and a role. The preview uses the role only to decide whether the page may be shown. Editorial actions record which account performed them.

Cookies

The public reader pages use no third-party marketing, advertising or analytics tracking, and they set no cookie of their own. Staff sign-in is separate: signing in sets a session cookie named payload-token, which is HttpOnly (not readable by page scripts) and SameSite=Lax, and the sign-in token it carries expires after two hours. Reading the public pages does not sign anyone in and sets no such cookie.

Hosting and access logs

The site uses a hosting provider to serve requests over HTTPS. Access logs can record the connecting network address, time, requested path, response status and size, referring page and browser identification string. These records support operation and security.

Access logs are retained as needed for security and operations; no fixed public retention period is published yet.

Questions and privacy requests

These pages offer no public accounts, registration, newsletters or contact form. Questions about this page, or about information the site holds, can be sent to the address below.
