Privacy, in plain English
Last updated: July 16, 2026
This page tells you what information this site collects, what I do with it, and how to make me delete it. No legalese — if anything here is unclear, ask me and I'll answer straight.
The short version
I collect what you type into my booking form, and I use it for exactly one thing: running your session. I don't sell it, I don't share it with advertisers, and if you want it gone, you ask and I delete it.
What I collect, and why
The booking form asks for your name, the kind of work you do, what brought you here, how you feel about tech, your email, an optional phone number, and which language you'd like the session in. Those answers go to my email inbox so I can prepare for your free hour. That's their whole job.
The Solution Finder on the home page — the pick-your-work, pick-your-problem tool — never asks for your name or email, and the taps you make in it stay in your browser. The one exception is honest and small: if you then send the booking form, the two picks you made ride along with your answers (the form tells you so right there, with a way to leave them out).
The booking calendar on this site comes from Cal.com, my scheduling tool. When the calendar loads after the form, it receives your name and email so they're pre-filled for you — and when you book, Cal.com also gets the time you chose and puts the session on both our calendars.
The form also runs a quick bot check by Cloudflare called Turnstile. It looks at technical signals from your browser to tell people from bots, and it may set a cookie of its own for that check. I never see those signals — just a pass or fail.
The Shop Assistant — the chat tab in the corner — is an AI helper. It never opens by itself, and it runs the same Turnstile bot check before your first message. What you type in the chat is sent to Anthropic (the company behind Claude) to generate the reply, and I keep an anonymous copy of the conversation for 30 days — no name, no address attached — so I can read what people ask and make the assistant better. After 30 days it deletes itself. Please don't type passwords, card numbers, or anything sensitive into the chat; it's for questions, not paperwork.
Who else touches your data
No one, except the tools that make the site work: Cloudflare hosts the site, runs the bot check, and stores the chat assistant's anonymous transcripts. Cal.com handles scheduling. Resend delivers the form email to my inbox. Anthropic processes chat messages to generate the assistant's replies. Google runs my calendar and email. Each one processes your data only to do its job.
What I never do
I don't sell your information. I don't hand it to ad networks. There are no ad trackers on this site, and no analytics cookies either. If visitor counting is on, it's Cloudflare Web Analytics — the cookie-free kind. It counts page views without identifying you, and it can't follow you to other sites.
This site doesn't track you across other websites, and it doesn't respond to a browser's “Do Not Track” signal — there's nothing here for it to switch off. The built-in tools (Cloudflare's bot check, Cal.com's calendar) may set their own cookies to do their jobs; as far as I know they use them for security and scheduling, not cross-site tracking, and their own privacy policies cover them.
See it, change it, delete it
Want to know what I have about you, fix it, or have me erase it? Email or text me — the details are right below — and I'll do it and confirm within a few days. No forms, no hoops.
If this page changes
If I change how the site handles your information, I'll update this page and move the date at the top before the change takes effect.
