Privacy Policy

Hi, I'm Joel. This is my personal site, where I write, share projects, and offer consulting. Here's what happens with any information you send me through it.

What I collect#

If you subscribe to the mailing list, I store your email address. If you submit the contact form, I store the name, email, inquiry type, and message you enter along with your IP and a timestamp. That's the whole list.

I don't run analytics or ad trackers. The only things saved in your browser are your theme preference and whether you've dismissed the subscribe banner.

Where it lives#

Subscriber emails and contact submissions are stored with a hosted database provider, and contact form messages are also delivered to my inbox through a transactional email provider. Nothing gets sold, rented, or shared beyond what's needed to operate the site.

Rate limiting#

The subscribe and contact endpoints keep a short-lived count of requests per IP so I can block abuse. It expires automatically.

Your rights#

Email joel@alethi.dev if you want to see what I have about you, correct or delete it, or unsubscribe. I'll respond within a reasonable time.

Security and changes#

I take reasonable precautions, but no system is perfectly secure. Submit accordingly. If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date at the top will reflect it.
