The 1729 Maths School

The outlier: a Netlify static site with a genuinely commercial stack — HubSpot, Zoom, Barracuda-filtered Microsoft-plus-Google mail, and a strict p=reject DMARC.

Third-party signals in DNS

Domain-verification and SPF records left in DNS reveal which SaaS platforms a domain has been connected to. These are fingerprints, not proof of active use.

Privacy & data processing

borrowed group notice

1729 publishes no privacy notice of its own — its footer links Mill Hill Education Group's group notice, which is overdue for review and never names 1729. Meanwhile the site runs the network's heaviest marketing stack: HubSpot forms, GA4, and Meta, Reddit and Google Ads pixels.

What the site loads vs. what it discloses

The footer's "Data Privacy Notice" is Mill Hill's group-wide notice (2023, next review May 2025 — overdue). It never mentions 1729, and names none of the trackers the site actually runs — which is the heaviest ad-tech footprint in the network.
