Privacy

What is collected

HoneyHQ has no accounts, no user-submitted content and no advertising. The single third-party service is Google Analytics 4, and it runs only if you accept it. Declining, or not answering, means no analytics script is loaded, no request reaches Google, and no cookie is set.

The same choice also covers HoneyHQ’s own first-party measurement, run by HEKNO Ltd, which operates this site. It receives the same restricted events described below, plus a random session number generated in your browser and held only in memory — it is never stored on your device, is forgotten when you reload or withdraw consent, and cannot identify you. It sets no cookies.

Your choice, and where it is kept

The banner asks once. Your answer is stored in your browser’s local storage under honeyhq:consent, on your device only — it is never sent anywhere. You can change it at any time on the cookies page, which also lists everything stored on your device.

What an event can contain

If you accept, the events HoneyHQ can send are a fixed vocabulary defined in its code: a section name, a catalogue entry’s identifier, a tool name, and a coarse band for how many results a tool returned — including “none”, so empty results can be fixed — and, if you print a page, the fact that a page in that section was printed, once per page. Never the page’s text, and never what you chose. There is no field that can carry free text, and a value outside the vocabulary is discarded before it is sent rather than trusted. This is enforced by automated tests, not by convention.

Two of Google Analytics’ defaults are switched off for the same reason. Automatic page views are disabled, because they report the full address of every page — which on this site would include everything typed into a tool. HoneyHQ sends its own instead, carrying a section name such as honey or plants. The page address reported alongside every event is also stripped of its query string, so filters, amounts and searches never reach an analytics provider. A search on this site is a normal page request to the site’s own host, answered there and not stored by HoneyHQ. Advertising signals and ad personalisation are disabled, and no advertising domain is permitted to load by the site’s content security policy.

Cookies

HoneyHQ sets none of its own. If you accept analytics, Google sets its own — see the cookies page.

What the tools do with your input

Every tool on this site is a plain form that puts its state in the URL and renders the result on the server. Nothing is stored, nothing is logged against you, and nothing about what you entered is sent anywhere else. Closing the page ends it.

External links

Source links point to external sites, which have their own privacy practices. They open in a new tab and carry no referrer beyond the origin.

Changes

If anything here changes — a different provider, storage of any kind, or advertising — this page will say so before the change takes effect, not after. HoneyHQ is operated by HEKNO Ltd.
