What stays in your browser
Your boards, the references you add, your settings, your practice log and your curriculum progress are saved in your browser’s storage on your device. They aren’t sent anywhere, and we can’t see them. Clearing your browser’s site data for Sketch Hour deletes them.
Images from Pinterest
The pins on Sketch Hour’s Pinterest boards load straight from Pinterest’s image servers, so Pinterest receives your IP address and browser details, as it does when you visit Pinterest. Sketch Hour doesn’t send Pinterest anything about you.
Images from the Art Institute of Chicago
The museum references in the curriculum load from the Art Institute of Chicago’s image server, so the museum receives your IP address, your browser details and the address of the Sketch Hour site (not the page you’re on) when they load. The museum’s server needs that address to send the images. Sketch Hour doesn’t send the museum anything else about you.
Hosting
Sketch Hour is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub logs visitors’ IP addresses for security purposes, as described in GitHub’s privacy statement.
