- After Dark adds a {{< external href="https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-referrer-policy/" text="Referrer Policy" />}} to improve site security and increase visitor privacy beyond browser defaults using a simple site-wide policy.
-
- Adjust the site-wide default of `same-origin` from {{< external href="https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration/" text="Site Configuration" />}}:
-
- ```toml
- [params.seo]
- referrer = "same-origin"
- ```
-
- Relax the security policy by:
-
- - Adjusting the site-wide default;
- - Using the `referrerpolicy` attribute of the [External Shortcode](/shortcode/external);
- - Using a {{< external href="https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-referrer-policy/#referrer-policy-delivery-nested" text="nested browsing context" />}} to adjust contextually.
-
- See {{< external href="https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-referrer-policy/" text="Referrer Policy on W3C" />}} for a list of possible values.
