The short version: This is a personal portfolio. There are no accounts, no ads, and I don't sell or share your data. Analytics run only if you say yes.
What this site collects
Analytics, only if you accept. If you click "Accept" on the banner, the site loads Google Analytics 4. It records things like the pages you view, how you arrived (for example a link or a search), your approximate location (country or city, worked out from your IP address), and your device, browser and screen size. It sets cookies named _ga and _ga_ followed by an ID, which help Google tell one visit from another. If you click "Decline", or don't choose, none of this loads.
Your choices, stored in your browser. The site remembers your cookie choice in your browser's local storage. This stays on your device; I don't receive it.
Hosting. The site is hosted on Vercel. Like any web host, Vercel processes technical request data, such as your IP address and browser details, in order to deliver the site and keep it secure.
Fonts and code. Apart from Google Analytics (if you accept), fonts and scripts are served from this site itself, not from other third-party services.
If you email me. I'll use your email address and message to reply, and keep the conversation for as long as it's useful.
What I don't do
I don't sell your data, show ads, build advertising profiles, or share what I collect with anyone other than the services named on this page.
Your choices
- Click "Cookie settings" in the footer at any time to change your mind. Choosing "Decline" stops analytics and removes the analytics cookies.
- You can also block or delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings.
- To ask what I hold about you, or to have it deleted, email me at phillipbentonkelly@gmail.com.
How long data is kept
Analytics data is kept in Google Analytics for 2 months for detailed reports; summary reports may be kept longer. Emails are kept as long as needed to deal with your message.
Other services
- Google Analytics: Google's privacy policy
- Vercel (hosting): Vercel's privacy policy
This site isn't aimed at children.
Changes
If I change how the site works, I'll update this page and the date at the top.
