Subprocessors
Every outside service that touches data from this site, what it receives, and when it was added
Last updated August 24, 2026
How to Read This
A subprocessor is any vendor that processes data on my behalf. Some are unavoidable and run the site itself. Some only run after you allow the matching cookie category. Some never see a visitor at all and only read published pages.
Infrastructure and hosting
These providers run the site itself. Every visit touches them, which is why they sit in the strictly necessary category.

Analytics and advertising pixels
None of these load until you allow the matching cookie category. Reject them and no request is made to these vendors at all.

Content, indexing, and crawling tools
These process published pages, not visitor identity. They are listed because they read this site on a schedule and because published content can end up inside their systems.
| Vendor | Purpose | Data received | Region | Listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Google Search and Search Console | Search indexing and search performance reporting | Published page content and aggregate, anonymized search query reports | Global | August 24, 2026 |
| Bing Webmaster Tools and IndexNow | Search indexing and index submission | Published page content and URL submissions | Global | August 24, 2026 |
| Firecrawl | Crawling and structured extraction of published pages for content workflows | Published page content only | United States | August 24, 2026 |
| Raek | Content pipeline and distribution tooling for published writing | Published page content and article metadata | United States | August 24, 2026 |
Content Crawling and AI Training
Crawling and content tools process what I published, not who you are. Published writing can be indexed by search engines and read by language models. If you submitted a review, only the parts I publish are exposed that way. Nothing from a private form, an email list, or a contact message is fed into a content pipeline.
Adding a Vendor
New vendors are appended to this page with the date they were listed, and the change log below records the addition. When a new vendor falls into the analytics or marketing category, the consent version is bumped, which means the banner asks you again instead of assuming your old answer still applies.
