Privacy policy

Visit statistics

To understand how the website is used, we record anonymous visit statistics. We do not use cookies or similar storage for this, and we do not use third-party analytics or advertising services on the website.

For each page view we record:

• the page visited, its title and its language;
• the website that linked to the page (its address without any query string) and campaign tags in the link, if any;
• an approximate location (country, region, city), worked out from your IP address by our hosting provider when the page is requested;
• the type of device, browser and operating system, the browser language and the screen width;
• which links and buttons are clicked on the page, and how long the page stays visible.

To count unique visitors, we compute a one-way code from your IP address, browser details, the current date and a secret value. This code changes every day and cannot be turned back into your IP address. We do not store your IP address with these statistics.

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, no visit statistics are recorded at all.

Contact messages

When you send a message through the contact form, we store your name, email address and message, the page and language you sent it from, an approximate country, and a one-way code derived from your IP address that we use only to stop abuse and spam.

We use this information only to read and reply to your message. If you email us directly at mostafa.abdo.ch12@gmail.com, your email is handled the same way.

Preferences stored in your browser

If you choose a language, a small cookie remembers it so the website opens in that language next time. If you switch between light and dark mode, that choice is saved in your browser’s local storage. Neither is used to identify or track you, and you can clear both in your browser settings.

Who processes the data

The website is hosted by Vercel Inc., and the statistics and messages are stored in a database operated by Supabase Inc. Both act on our behalf as service providers and may process data in countries other than your own, under their own security and data-protection commitments.

Like most hosting providers, Vercel keeps standard technical logs of requests, which include IP addresses, for a short period to run and protect the service. We do not combine these logs with the visit statistics.

We do not sell, rent or share your information with anyone for advertising or any other purpose.

How long we keep it

• Visit statistics are deleted automatically after 25 months.
• Contact messages are kept while needed to handle your request, and are deleted automatically after 24 months at the latest.

Your choices and rights

Visit statistics are anonymous: we cannot link them to you, so we cannot find, show or delete them for a particular person. You can stop them being recorded by turning on Global Privacy Control in your browser (built into some browsers, or available as an extension).

For contact messages, you can ask us at any time to see, correct or delete what you sent. Write to mostafa.abdo.ch12@gmail.com from the same email address.

Children

The website is meant for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information through the contact form, write to mostafa.abdo.ch12@gmail.com and we will delete it.

Security

The website is served only over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Stored statistics and messages can be read only by the site administrator, after signing in with a password and a second authentication step.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update it on this page and change the date at the top.
