Privacy policy

In short

This is a personal website. There are no ads, no profiling and no data sales. Only the minimum needed to run the site and to reply to you is stored.

What is collected

  • Contact form: name, email, message, and optionally phone and subject. Used only to reply to you and deleted automatically after the retention period set in the admin settings (1 year by default).
  • CV builder: what you type and your photo stay in your browser and are never sent to the server. The PDF is also generated in your browser. If you send a suggestion or complaint, your message and optional email are stored.
  • Parking notification (QR code): the reason you choose, a short message and an optional phone number. Delivered to the car owner and deleted after 30 days by default.
  • Abuse protection: IP addresses are not stored in readable form. A non-reversible hash is used for spam and rate-limit checks; rate-limit records are deleted within 2 days.
  • Visit statistics: daily page views and unique visitors per page. A vid cookie holds a random identifier; the server only records its hash per day. It is not linked to a name, email or IP address and is deleted after 2 years.
  • Live visitors: while a page is open, your browser sends a small signal every 30 seconds, using a random per-tab identifier kept in session storage. The server keeps it only in memory for about a minute: the page you are on, browser, operating system, device type, country (as provided by Cloudflare) and the site you came from. It is not written to the database.
  • Usage statistics: PDF downloads from the CV builder, views and downloads of my CV, project and social link clicks and songs played on the Favorites page are counted per day (for example with the project name or language). Who did it is not recorded, and what you type in the CV builder is never sent to the server. The counters are deleted after 2 years.

Cookies and local storage

Name Purpose Lifetime
vid anonymous visit statistics 1 year
theme-resolved your theme (light or dark) 1 year
__Host-elmin_session, admin-locale admin panel sign-in and its language only session, 1 year

Your browser's local storage keeps the theme choice, the star animation setting, the CV builder draft and the preview zoom setting. They never leave your device.

Third parties

  • Spotify and Apple Music: on the Favorites page their player loads only when you press ▶; from then on their own privacy rules and cookies apply. Without pressing it, no request is sent to them.
  • Notifications: contact, feedback and parking messages reach the site owner through Telegram or email.
  • External links: IMDb, TVmaze, Spotify, Apple Music and social networks are separate websites with their own policies.
  • Fonts and images are served from this site's own server. There are no third-party tracking scripts.
