This site collects nothing.

What the site itself collects

Nothing. There is no analytics script, no tag manager, no advertising pixel, no session recording, and no embedded widget from another company. Loading any page here contacts one host, this one, and leaves no cookie, no local storage entry and no session storage entry behind.

The typefaces are part of the site rather than fetched from a font service, so reading this page does not tell Google, or anyone else, that you are reading it.

There is no contact form. The email address and phone number are links that open your own mail app or dialler, which means nothing is submitted to this site and I do not receive anything until you choose to send it.

What the host records

This site is static files served by a hosting provider, and any such provider keeps ordinary server access logs. Those logs typically record your IP address, the page requested, the time, and the browser and operating system your request announced. An IP address can count as personal information under Canadian and European law, so it is listed here even though I do not read these logs, do not analyse them, and cannot use them to work out who you are.

Those logs are held by the hosting provider under its own retention schedule rather than mine. They are a technical record of a file being served, not a profile of a visitor.

If you get in touch

If you email sanghajasroop@gmail.com, the message is delivered to a Gmail mailbox, so Google processes it in the ordinary course of running that mail service. If you call or text 778 758 1220, your phone company and mine handle the call the way they handle every other call.

I keep correspondence for as long as it is useful to keep, which for most enquiries is until the conversation is finished and for actual work is as long as the project records need to exist. Ask me to delete a thread and I will delete it.

Links off this site

There are links here to GitHub, Instagram, X, TikTok, geniusda.com and wayfield.tech. Following one takes you to a company that is not me, with its own privacy practices and its own tracking. Nothing on this page applies once you have left it, and none of those companies learn anything from your visit unless you click through.

Why there is no cookie banner

Because there are no cookies to consent to. A banner asking permission to do nothing is not privacy, it is decoration, and it trains people to click through the ones that matter. If this site ever sets a cookie that is not strictly necessary, it will ask first and the answer will actually gate it.

Your rights

I am one person in Surrey, British Columbia, so Canada's federal privacy law and British Columbia's provincial one are the ones that fit. If you are in the UK or the European Economic Area, the rights those laws give you are ones I am happy to honour regardless of whether a personal site of this size triggers them.

In practice: you can ask what I hold about you, ask for a copy, ask me to correct it, ask me to delete it, or object to my keeping it. Since the only thing I could possibly hold is a conversation you started, that is a short request to answer. Email sanghajasroop@gmail.com and I will reply.

If you think I have handled something badly and I have not fixed it, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, or to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia.

Children

This site is not aimed at children and has nothing for a child to sign up to, submit or buy.

Changes

If the site starts doing something this page says it does not do, this page changes on the same day. There is an automated check in the codebase that fails the build if analytics, cookies or a third-party script appear while this page still claims none exist, which is the only reliable way a policy stays true after the person who wrote it has moved on.
