Privacy

This site is run by Wessel van der A ([email protected]). It uses no cookies and no third-party trackers or fonts.

What is measured

To understand which links are useful, the server counts page views, link clicks and contact-card downloads. For each of these it stores only:

The visitor code

The visitor code is a one-way hash of your IP address, browser user-agent and a random value that is replaced every 24 hours. The random value of the previous day is deleted, so codes cannot be linked across days or traced back to you. Your IP address itself is never written to disk.

Light or dark mode

If you use the light/dark switch, your choice is remembered in your own browser (local storage) so the site looks the same next time. It is never sent to the server, and you can clear it with your browser's site data.

Legal basis and retention

This minimal, anonymous measurement is based on legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) and does not access or store information on your device, so no consent banner is needed. Raw records are deleted automatically after 395 days.

Hosting

Traffic is delivered through Cloudflare, which processes connection data to protect and deliver the site. See Cloudflare's own privacy policy for details.

Your rights

Because the data cannot be tied to you, it usually cannot be looked up or deleted per person. If you have a question, get in touch.
