Nº 01 — The ChallengeQueer Corner

Some readers can't afford to be seen reading.

For many LGBTI+ people a browser history or an analytics log is not neutral: one visit can reveal something a reader hasn't told anyone yet. And the answers they need, on PrEP, legal gender change, parenthood or reporting discrimination, are spread across dozens of Dutch government and health pages, mostly in Dutch only.

Nº 01 Privacy without asking No cookie banner to click through, because there is nothing to consent to: no ads, no analytics cookies, no outside fonts or scripts.
Nº 02 Five languages, two directions English, Turkish, Dutch, Arabic and Persian, with Arabic and Persian mirrored right-to-left, not just translated.
Nº 03 Only what the source says Health and legal topics, where one wrong sentence can hurt someone. Every claim had to trace back to an official page.
Nº 04 A way out, always Someone may be reading in a home where it isn't safe to. Every page needed an instant exit.

Nº 02 — The BuildQueer Corner

Built light, built strict, built for trust.

Nº 01 Plain PHP, own admin PHP 8 and MySQL with no framework, and an admin where each guide is linked across its five language versions.
Nº 02 Right-to-left done properly Layout, navigation and reading order mirror for Arabic and Persian, down to the buttons and arrows.
Nº 03 Zero tracking by design A strict content security policy blocks every outside script. Visits are counted by our own cookieless counter: no cookies, no stored IP addresses.
Nº 04 Quick exit and sourced guides A Quick exit button (or Esc twice) leaves the site at once. Every guide lists its official sources and the date it was last checked.

Nº 03 — Why It MattersQueer Corner

Trust is the feature.

A guide like this only works if people feel safe opening it. So the privacy choices are not a promise in the footer but part of the build: nothing to consent to, nothing following the reader around, and a site in the language they think in. That same approach (light code, strict privacy, real multilingual support) is what NyxWorks brings to any site where trust matters.
