Privacy Policy

This site is run by someone who genuinely cares about privacy and security. It would be embarrassing if the privacy policy didn't reflect that.

Analytics

This site uses Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool.

Fully managed by ByteRon — the analytics server is set up, maintained, and secured entirely by me. Your data never touches a third-party analytics provider.
Cookieless — Umami does not set any cookies on your device.
Anonymous — no IP addresses stored, no fingerprinting, no cross-site tracking.

All I see is anonymous, aggregated data: which pages are visited, referring sources, and general browser/device/country information. None of this can identify you.

Cookies

This site does not set any cookies. None. Zero.

We use localStorage (browser-side storage that is never sent to any server) for two things:

• Remembering your light/dark theme preference
• Remembering that you've dismissed the privacy notice

This data never leaves your browser.

Third-Party Services

The following third-party services are used on this site:

Cal.com

The "Book a Call" feature embeds Cal.com for scheduling. When you use the booking widget, Cal.com processes the information you provide (name, email, selected time). See Cal.com's privacy policy.

Giscus (Blog Comments)

Blog post comments are powered by Giscus, which uses GitHub Discussions as a backend. The comment widget loads JavaScript from giscus.app and stores all comments in the public GitHub repository's Discussions. Leaving a comment requires a GitHub account. When you do, GitHub processes your username and comment content — see GitHub's privacy policy. If you only read blog posts without commenting, no data is sent to GitHub.

Data I Collect

If you fill in the contact form or book a call, I get whatever you typed: usually your name, email, and message. I use it to reply to you. That's it. No mailing lists, no selling your details, no passing them on.

The contact form runs on a self-hosted, open-source version of Formbricks that I manage myself. Your submission goes to my own server, not to Formbricks or anyone else. Once your enquiry is resolved, I don't keep the data around.

Your Rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data I hold about you. In practice, the only personal data I might have is what you've sent me through the contact form or a booking.

To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@byteron.com.

Last updated: March 2026. If this policy changes, I'll update this date. No dark patterns, no quietly expanding data collection.
