Privacy
This site keeps its own simple visit log. Visitors get no tracking cookies, and nothing is shared with third parties: no Google Analytics, no ad trackers, no scripts or fonts loaded from other sites.
What is logged
For each page view: the page, the referring site (domain only), a rough visitor type (person, search engine, AI crawler or other bot), the country reported by Cloudflare, and a visitor code. The visitor code is a hash of your IP address and browser with a salt that changes every day, so it can't be turned back into your IP address and visits can't be linked across days. The IP address itself is never stored.
Clicks on the email, phone, LinkedIn and résumé links are counted the same way.
Cookies
- If you switch between light and dark mode, that choice is stored in a cookie so the site can show it on your next visit.
- If you arrive through a personal link I sent you (a /r/… address), a session cookie remembers that link until you close your browser, so I can see that it was used. It holds only the link's code.
Messages
Messages sent through the contact form are stored so I can reply. They are not shared with anyone.
Retention and questions
Visit logs are deleted after 180 days. The site is served through Cloudflare, which processes requests to deliver and protect it. Questions: mkuhlman12@gmail.com.
