Privacy policy

What I collect,
and what I don't.

Plain English. No dark patterns. This is a personal portfolio, not a data business.

  • 01

    What this site collects

    The only place this site collects any information from you is the contact form on /contact. When you submit it, the following is sent to my inbox:

    • The name you typed
    • The email address you typed
    • The type of message you picked (Internship, Collaboration, etc.)
    • The message body

    The rest of the site is fully static. Browsing the homepage, project pages, or the about page does not collect any personal information from you.

  • 02

    What this site does not collect

    To be specific about what is not happening here:

    • No analytics, no page-view tracking, no session recording
    • No advertising or marketing cookies
    • No third-party tracking pixels
    • No fingerprinting
    • No newsletters or mailing lists
    • No account system, no login, no passwords
  • 03

    Cookies and browser storage

    This site does not set any HTTP cookies. The only browser storage it uses is localStorage on the contact page, which stores a list of timestamps for messages you have submitted from your browser. That list is used to enforce the daily submission limit (three messages per 24 hours) so the form cannot be spammed.

    You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser storage for this site. The values are never sent anywhere and never leave your device.

  • 04

    Third parties

    Contact form submissions are transmitted through a small serverless function on this site to Resend, which delivers the message to my email inbox. Resend acts purely as an email transport, similar to any other email service.

    The site itself is hosted on Vercel. Vercel receives standard HTTP request metadata (IP address, user agent, request path) that any web host receives, which it uses for delivering the site and for platform-level security.

    Google Search Console has been configured on the site domain for search indexing. It reports aggregate search performance to me and does not track individual visitors.

  • 05

    Rate limiting and IP addresses

    When you submit the contact form, the server-side function briefly holds your IP address and the email address you typed in memory to enforce the daily submission limit. These values are stored in memory only, are not written to any database, and are automatically discarded once the 24-hour window ends.

  • 06

    Your rights

    If you have sent me a message and want the copy in my inbox deleted, email me at nadellasripad11@gmail.com and I will delete it. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws like GDPR or CCPA. If so, email me and I will honor them.

  • 07

    Changes to this policy

    If this policy ever changes, the "last updated" date at the bottom will change with it. This is a personal portfolio, so material changes are unlikely.
