Privacy

The short version

This is a personal site. There are no accounts and nothing to sign up for. It sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser. Analytics are aggregate and are configured so that your IP address is not stored. The only information you can hand over is what you type into the contact form, and that is emailed to me so I can reply.

Analytics

I use analytics to see which pages people read and whether the site is fast and error free. Three things run:

• PostHog for page views, interactions with links and buttons, and JavaScript errors. It runs in a cookieless mode, so it writes nothing to your browser, and each event is sent with a flag that tells PostHog not to store your IP address. Session recording is turned off, so your screen and your mouse movements are never captured.
• Vercel Web Analytics for aggregate page-view counts. It uses no cookies and builds no profile of you.
• Vercel Speed Insights for page-performance measurements such as load time.

Analytics requests are proxied through this site’s own domain rather than a third-party script host. Your browser still tells any server it contacts your IP address and user agent, which is how the web works; the point above is that PostHog is instructed not to retain the IP, and I never see one.

None of this is advertising. There are no ad networks, no advertising identifiers, no cross-site tracking, and nothing here is sold or shared for marketing.

The contact form

If you use the contact form, the name, email address, topic and message you type are delivered to my inbox by Web3Forms, a form-delivery service. I use that information to reply to you and for nothing else. If you would rather not use a form, email me directly at josiahrininger@gmail.com. Ask me and I will delete a message you sent.

Cookies

This site sets no cookies for visitors, which is why you are not asked to dismiss a cookie banner. The private admin area, which only I can sign in to, uses a sign-in cookie for my own session. It is not reachable by visitors and is excluded from analytics.

Who processes data

• Vercel hosts the site and serves every page, so it processes normal web-server request data.
• PostHog processes the analytics events described above.
• Web3Forms delivers contact-form submissions to my inbox.
• Google handles sign-in for the private admin area, which is mine alone.

My apps

The apps I publish have their own policies, because they handle their own data: LeanScore, BMI Calculator, Plotmoji and Roamprint. This page covers only the website.

Your choices

Because the site stores nothing in your browser, there is nothing here for you to clear. Any content blocker or tracking protection you already use will stop the analytics scripts, and the site works normally without them. If you want a contact-form message removed, email me and I will delete it.

Children

This site is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If what the site collects changes, I will update this page and the effective date above.
