Cookies
Short version: this site sets no cookies that require your consent. Plausible runs cookieless for analytics. We deliberately link out to third-party tools (Cal.com for booking calls, LinkedIn, X) rather than embedding them, so their cookies stay on their domain — not ours. No cookie wall, no consent gate, nothing on the site is blocked behind your response.
1. What runs on the site
- Plausible Analytics — privacy-first, cookieless web analytics. It records aggregate page views, referrer, and country (derived from IP and immediately discarded). It does not set cookies, store device identifiers, or follow you across sites.
- Google Fonts— used to serve the Inter and JetBrains Mono typefaces. We host fonts at the edge with the same privacy posture as Google's default fonts CDN; no personal identifiers are stored by us as a result of font loading.
2. What does not run on the site
- No third-party advertising networks or pixels.
- No social-media tracking pixels (LinkedIn, X, Meta).
- No session replay, heatmaps, or behavioural tracking.
- No retargeting cookies.
- No persistent identifiers stored in your browser by us.
3. Strictly-necessary cookies
We may set short-lived cookies if and when they are necessary for a feature you've actively used — for example, a session token if you log into /adminas a Payload editor. These cookies don't require consent under most cookie laws because they are strictly necessary to deliver the feature you asked for.
4. We deliberately don't embed third-party widgets
Many sites embed third-party tools (Cal.com / Calendly bookings, Intercom, Crisp, HubSpot chat, social-media widgets) that quietly set cookies in their iframes. We don't — every external tool we use is reached by clicking a link that opens on the third party's own domain. Their cookies live with them. This is a deliberate design choice to keep your data footprint on this site as close to zero as practical.
5. Changes
If we ever add a service that does set non-essential cookies on this domain (e.g. an embedded chat tool or an advertising pixel), we'll add real consent management — with a Reject button of equal weight, granular categories, and a consent log — before the service goes live, and update this page to match.
