Observed sessions. Public policies. Bounded claims.
State of Privacy is designed to show a public, consumer-readable evidence layer. It is not a full forensic audit, legal advice, or government certification.
1. Public web session capture
We open public company pages in controlled browser sessions and record the third-party tracker signals that appear during that session.
2. Tracker classification
Public tracker rows are grouped by product, vendor, category, disclosure gap, request count, and observed behavior such as analytics, adtech, identity, or session replay signals.
3. Privacy policy review
Public policy findings use policy language and reader-friendly summaries. The preferred claim shape is “policy says”, “observed”, “captured”, or “not matched to public policy disclosure”.
4. Evidence proof rows
Public proof rows include capped tracker proof and policy proof snippets. Raw HAR files, internal notes, and proprietary evidence are not exposed in bulk.
5. Claim boundary
Do not infer illegality from this site. A finding means the public evidence layer needs attention, review, or explanation.
