Summary
HISTORYX does not create reader accounts, runs no advertising, and uses no third-party trackers. What is recorded is limited to what the site needs to work and to detect abuse.
Cookies and sessions
The site uses a technical cookie, HX_SESSID, to keep your visit session together. It is HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite=Lax, so page scripts cannot read it and it is only sent over HTTPS.
If you press Save on an article, the site also sets a hx_visitor cookie holding a random code for one year so your saved list stays recognised. It contains no name, email, or other personal data, and only HISTORYX reads it.
Neither cookie is used for advertising or cross-site tracking. A session ends when you close the browser or after a period of inactivity; deleting the hx_visitor cookie deletes the saved list in that browser.
Reading statistics
Each article's view count is recorded per day as an aggregate number. This stores no name, IP address, or device identity, and is used only to know which articles are read most.
Search logging
The keywords you enter on the search page are recorded together with the number of results. IP addresses are never stored raw; they are kept as a one-way hash used to prevent abuse. Search records are removed gradually after 90 days.
Hosting server logs
The hosting provider keeps standard access logs — IP address, browser type, request time, and response code — for server security and maintenance. Those logs are managed by the provider under their own policy, not by the HISTORYX editors.
Comments and the contact form
The name you enter with a comment is shown alongside it once an editor approves it. The email in the comment form is not shown; only a one-way hash is kept. The sender's IP address is also stored as a hash to deter spam.
The contact form stores your name, email, subject, and message so the editors can reply. This data is not used for marketing and is deleted once the matter is closed.
Email correspondence
If you email the editorial address, the message and sender address are kept for as long as needed to follow up a report or clarification. This data is not used for marketing and is not shared with third parties.
Third parties
HISTORYX runs no advertising, uses no third-party analytics, and embeds no social media tracking code. If such a service is added later, this page will be updated first and its update date will change with it.
Your rights
You may ask what data relates to you, request a correction, or request deletion. Because the site stores no reader profiles, requests usually concern comments, contact messages, email correspondence, or search records.
Send requests to redaksi@historyx.my.id.
Children
This site is aimed at general readers and does not knowingly collect data from children. Some articles carry content warnings for violent events. There is no account registration; forms are only used to send comments or messages and ask only for a name and email.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when something technical changes, such as a new service being added. The version in force is always the one shown on this page, with its update date at the top.
