Cookie Policy
Last Updated: February 24, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how I use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit my portfolio website. I am committed to being transparent about the data I collect and how it is used to enhance your browsing experience.
1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store data that can be recalled by a web server in the domain that placed the cookie. I use cookies to provide a seamless experience, understand how you interact with my content, and improve site performance.
2. Technologies I Use
To provide a high-quality professional experience and optimize my website, I use the following industry-standard tools:
Web Analytics & Performance
- Vercel Analytics & Speed Insights: Used to monitor real-time traffic and performance metrics (such as page load times and Core Web Vitals). This data helps me ensure the site is fast and reliable.
- Google Analytics (GA4): Used to understand visitor demographics, acquisition channels, and high-level engagement patterns.
- Microsoft Clarity: Used to analyze user behavior through heatmaps and session recordings. This helps me identify usability issues and improve the interface design.
Functional & Essential Cookies
- Preference Cookies: Used to remember your consent choices (e.g., whether you accepted the cookie banner).
3. Data Collection and Privacy
The data collected by these tools is generally pseudonymized. While I track interactions such as clicks, scrolls, and navigation paths, I do not use these cookies to collect sensitive personal information (like names or billing details) unless you explicitly provide them via a contact form.
4. How to Manage Your Preferences
You have several options to control how cookies are used on your device:
- My Cookie Banner: Upon your first visit, you can choose to "Accept" or "Decline" non-essential tracking.
- Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings menu.
- Opt-out Tools:
- To opt-out of Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- To manage Microsoft Clarity tracking, you can adjust your preferences in your browser or through Microsoft's privacy dashboard.
5. Third-Party Links
My portfolio may contain links to external sites (e.g., GitHub, LinkedIn, Behance). Please note that I do not control the cookie policies of these third-party platforms.
