Privacy
A plain-English note on what this site collects. Short version: as little as possible, no tracking cookies, and nothing is sold.
Analytics
This site uses Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights to see aggregate traffic and page performance. They're privacy-friendly by design: no cookies, no cross-site tracking, and no personally identifiable information — just anonymous, aggregated numbers like page views and load times. I can't identify you from them.
Contact form
If you use the contact form, the name, email, and message you enter are delivered to my inbox (through Resend, an email provider) so I can reply. That's the only reason it's collected — I don't store it elsewhere, share it, or use it for marketing.
Cookies
None. This site sets no tracking or advertising cookies.
Third parties
The site is hosted on Vercel (hosting plus the analytics above), sends form messages via Resend, and loads writing cover images from Unsplash's CDN. Each only sees what it needs to do its job.
