Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 22, 2026
This is a personal website, and I care about your privacy. This page explains what information may be collected when you visit or interact with my site, and how it’s used.
Information I collect
What’s collected depends on how you use the site:
- Basic usage analytics: things like pages visited and general device/browser information.
- Contact form: if you message me, you share your name, email address, and your message.
- Blog stats: I track view/like counts for posts.
- Theme preference: if you switch light/dark mode, I store that preference in your browser so it sticks.
How I use information
- To keep the site running smoothly and improve it over time.
- To understand what content is useful (analytics).
- To reply if you reach out via the contact form.
- To show ads (if enabled) and help measure how they perform.
Third-party services
I use a few trusted third-party services to run the site. These services may set their own cookies or collect information according to their policies:
- Google Analytics: helps me understand site traffic.
- Google AdSense: serves ads and measures performance.
- Vercel Analytics: helps measure site performance.
- FormSubmit: delivers contact form submissions.
Cookies and local storage
Some features rely on cookies or similar technologies, mainly from third-party services like analytics and ads. I also store your theme preference in local storage.
Your choices
- You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings.
- You can use browser extensions/tools that limit tracking or block ads.
- You can disable local storage or clear site data (this may reset your theme preference).
Sharing and disclosure
- I don’t sell your personal information.
- I may share information with the service providers listed above to run the site (analytics, content delivery, comments, and contact form delivery).
- I may disclose information if required by law or to protect rights and safety.
Data retention
- Analytics retention is controlled by the analytics providers.
External links
My site links to other websites (including affiliate links). If you click out to a third-party site, their privacy policy applies.
