Cookie Policy

Last updated: 16 September 2026

The short version

This site uses only essential cookies and no analytics or advertising cookies — the built-in analytics is cookieless. The one exception is a YouTube video embedded on the About page, which only sets cookies if you choose to play it.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Some are essential (needed for the site to work), while others are used for analytics or advertising to track behaviour. This site uses only the essential kind.

Cookies this site uses

Essential cookies, set by the hosting platform (Framer), so the site loads correctly, keeps basic preferences, and stays secure. These don’t track you across other websites, and under privacy law they don’t require consent.

What this site does not use

No analytics cookies — I use cookieless, privacy-friendly analytics instead. No advertising or marketing cookies. No cross-site tracking or third-party ad networks.

Third-party sites

Links to Upwork, Behance, and similar platforms may set their own cookies once you visit them. The About page also embeds a YouTube video: it loads as a still thumbnail and sets no cookies until you press play — at which point YouTube (Google) may set its own cookies to run the player. That’s governed by their policies, not this one.

Managing cookies

You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings. Since this site only uses essential cookies, blocking them may affect how the site works, but there’s no tracking to switch off.

Changes

I may update this policy as the site changes. The “last updated” date at the top shows the most recent version.

For how I handle data in general, see the Privacy Policy.
