Privacy

Last updated 8 November 2026

Nothing you type into Samepath about your health is ever sent anywhere. It stays on your device. The only thing Samepath stores on a server is a record that you accepted the terms of use.

Everything runs in your browser

Samepath is a set of static files. When you open it, your browser downloads the site and the books' data, and from then on all the searching and ranking happens on your own device. No server ever receives your symptoms, your answers, the remedies you own or look at, or your past visits. There are no accounts, no analytics, no tracking cookies and no advertising.

The one thing we keep: your agreement to the terms

Before you use Samepath, you are asked to read and accept the terms of use. When you press "Agree and continue", your browser sends us a record of that agreement, and we keep it on our host, Cloudflare. The record holds:

• a random agreement number made by your browser (the same number is kept on your device)
• the date and time you agreed, by our clock and by your device's clock
• which version of the terms you accepted, and a fingerprint (a SHA-256 hash) of their exact text
• whether you scrolled to the end of the terms
• your IP address, and the approximate location our host works out from it (country, region, city, time zone and network provider)
• your browser's description of itself (its "user agent") and its preferred languages
• the web page that sent you to Samepath, if your browser shares it, and any tracking tags in the link you arrived by (such as utm_source)

It never holds your name, email address, or anything you type, choose or save on Samepath.

Why: it is our evidence that you read and accepted the terms, including that Samepath is not medical advice. We use it only for that and to protect the site from abuse. We don't sell it or share it with anyone, unless the law requires us to.

How long: about seven years, and then it is deleted, unless you ask us to remove it sooner (see below).

If you clear your browser's data, or use another browser or device, you will be asked to accept the terms again, and a new record is made.

Removing your agreement record

You can ask us to delete our record of your agreement with the form below. We don't ask for your name or email address, so we find your record from this device: the agreement number your browser kept, or, if that has been cleared, your IP address and browser together. To be removed accurately, send this from the same device and browser you accepted the terms on (and, if your browser's data has been cleared since, from the same network).

Once the record is deleted, this device's copy of your agreement is cleared too, so you will be asked to accept the terms again before using Samepath, and that would make a new record. We keep a note that a removal was made (when, how many records, and a scrambled form of your IP address to stop abuse), but nothing else.

What is saved on this device

To make the site more useful, your browser keeps a few things in its own local storage, on this device only. Apart from the agreement record above, they are never sent to us or to anyone else, and they are not shared with your other devices.

• Your past visits, if "Save my visits on this device" is on: the date, what you typed or answered, the rubrics you chose, the remedies the books listed, and any notes you add.
• Your remedies at home: the kits you ticked and the remedies you typed.
• Your settings, such as whether matching by meaning is on.
• Your agreement to the terms: the date, the version and the agreement number.
• Downloaded book data and, if you turned on matching by meaning, the language model, cached so they don't download again. These are the same public files for everyone and hold nothing about you.

Anyone who uses this browser on this device could see your saved visits. On a shared or public computer, turn off "Save my visits" or delete them when you finish. In a private or incognito window, the browser forgets them when the window closes.

How to delete it

• To delete one visit, or all of them, open "Your past visits on this device" at the bottom of the main page.
• To delete everything Samepath has saved on this device, use this button:

Delete everything Samepath saved on this device

The button also removes this device's copy of your agreement, so you will be asked to accept the terms again. Our record of the agreement stays. To have that deleted too, use the removal form above first, because this button clears the agreement number the form uses to find your record.

You can also clear this site's data in your browser's settings (often under "Privacy", "Site data" or "Website data").

What other sites see

Samepath is hosted on Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare handles the ordinary requests your browser makes for the site's files (for example your IP address and browser type), but those requests never contain what you type, and we don't keep them. Photos of remedy kits load from their makers' websites when you open the kit list, so those sites see a request for the photo, without anything you typed.

Changes

If what we keep ever changes, we will update this page and the terms first. See also the terms of use.
