PRIVACY

No trackers.
No cookies.
No nonsense.

A transparent overview of how data is handled and protected on this platform.

Privacy by Design

This site is built with a strict privacy-first philosophy. Your browsing experience is yours alone. There are no third-party trackers, no advertising pixels, and no fingerprinting scripts running in the background.

Analytics

I currently use Zero Analytics on this platform. I do not track page views, I do not log IP addresses for analytics purposes, and I do not use any open-source or commercial analytics services. The only data I see is what you explicitly submit through forms.

Cookies

The public-facing areas of this website are entirely cookieless.

Cookies are only ever issued to authenticated administrators on the isolated `/sudo/` dashboard for secure session management and CSRF protection. If you are a visitor, you will never receive a cookie.

Third-Party Services

To minimize external dependencies and prevent supply-chain IP leaks, all fonts and critical assets are self-hosted.

When you interact with specific features (like the Resume Request or Contact forms), your input may be processed securely via my backend using Cloudflare Turnstile (invisible, privacy-preserving bot protection) to prevent abuse.

Data Retention

If you submit data to me (e.g., via the Resume Request form), it is transmitted securely and stored encrypted at rest in a private Postgres database. It is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill your request (typically purged within 12 months).
