Privacy notice

I respect your privacy and aim to be fully transparent about how this website uses cookies and analytics. This page explains what data is used, why it is used, and how your privacy is protected at all times.

#Cookies

This website uses only two functional cookies, both strictly for personalization:

1. Theme cookie. Stores your theme preference (dark mode, light mode, or system default) so it is preserved between visits.

2. Language cookie. Stores your preferred language so the website remembers it across sessions.

#What do these cookies do?

• The theme cookie remembers whether you prefer dark or light mode.
• The language cookie remembers the language you selected for the interface.

#Do these cookies track users or collect personal data?

No. These cookies are used only to remember your preferences. They do not track your activity, identify you, or collect personal information.

#How are these cookies stored?

• Theme preference is stored under the key theme.
• Language preference is stored under the key locale.

#Analytics

This website uses Umami, a privacy-focused and GDPR-compliant analytics tool, to understand how the site is used and to improve its content and performance—without compromising user privacy.

#What is Umami?

Umami is an open-source analytics platform designed with privacy in mind. Unlike traditional analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), Umami does not collect personally identifiable information and does not rely on tracking cookies.

#What data does Umami collect?

Umami collects anonymous, aggregated statistics, including:

• Page views and unique page views
• Average time spent on pages
• Bounce rate
• Traffic sources (e.g., search engines or referral sites)
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
• Browser and operating system
• General geographic location (country, region, or city only)
• UTM parameters attached to URLs

This data cannot be used to identify individual users.

#Does Umami collect or store personal data?

No. Umami does not collect, store, or process personal data. IP addresses are not stored, and no information is collected that could directly or indirectly identify you.

#Does Umami use cookies?

No. Umami does not use cookies for analytics, which means no analytics-related cookie consent banner is required.

#GDPR compliance

Because Umami does not collect personal data or use tracking cookies, it is GDPR-compliant by design. Data collection is minimal, anonymous, and poses no risk of identifying individual users.

#Why this website uses Umami

The analytics data helps me understand how the website is performing and how visitors interact with it, so I can improve usability and content. All insights are anonymous and used solely for this purpose.

#Your privacy rights

This website does not collect, store, or process personal data.

As a result:

• There is no personal data to access, correct, or delete.
• No consent is required for analytics, as no tracking cookies or personal data are used.
• The only cookies in use are optional preference cookies (theme and language), which you can manage through your browser settings.

#Contact

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how the website handles data, you can contact me at hello@mianfg.me.

• Cookies: Two preference-only cookies (theme and language). No tracking.
