LEGIBILITY LAB — PRIVACY POLICY

1) Purpose of this site

Legibility Lab is a research project.

The site publishes research papers exploring how large language models interpret organisations and public information environments.

The site also provides associated Thinking Spaces which allow readers to explore these ideas in a structured way.

The site does not provide consultancy services, professional advice, or commercial software tools.

This policy explains what information the website collects and how it is handled.

The policy is written in plain language to make the site’s data practices easy to understand.

2) What data this site collects

The site intentionally minimises data collection.

Possible data sources include:

  • standard web hosting logs
  • simple site traffic statistics
  • emails sent directly to the Legibility Lab contact address.

The site does not operate user accounts and does not collect personal profiles.

3) Website analytics

The site may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand overall traffic patterns.

These analytics measure general information such as:

  • how many people visit the site
  • which pages are viewed
  • general geographic regions of visitors.

These statistics help the site owner understand how the research is being read.

They do not track individual users.

These statistics are aggregated and are not used to identify individual visitors.

4) Cookies

The site does not use advertising cookies or behavioural tracking.

If analytics are used, they are designed to operate without storing personally identifiable information.

Cookie usage, if present, is limited to basic website operation and privacy-respecting analytics.

5) Email communication

Readers may contact the project via the Legibility Lab contact email.

Emails sent to this address may include personal information provided by the sender.

This information is used only to respond to the message.

It is not added to marketing lists and is not shared with third parties.

6) Thinking Spaces

Some links on the site may lead to Thinking Spaces.

Thinking Spaces are structured environments designed to explore ideas presented in the research papers.

These spaces may operate on external platforms.

Those platforms may have their own privacy policies and terms.

When users enter a Thinking Space they are interacting with the external platform hosting that environment.

Users should review the policies of those platforms when accessing them.

7) External links

The website may link to external research, publications, or platforms.

Legibility Lab does not control the privacy practices of external sites.

Users should review the policies of those sites separately.
