The information handled here
Each use is limited to running the site, protecting its forms, measuring useful content, or replying when you contact me.
Forms
Audit and contact requests
If you submit a form, I receive the details you enter, such as your
email address, name, website and message. The email also includes the
submission time, page, IP address and browser user agent so I can reply
and investigate abuse. The message is delivered to my business mailbox
at Visual Media Factory through Google Workspace.
Analytics
Google Analytics and your choice
Google Analytics 4 loads under Consent Mode with analytics storage
denied by default. Before acceptance, it sends cookieless measurement
signals but does not read or write Analytics cookies. If you accept,
first party Analytics cookies are allowed. Advertising storage, ad
personalization and Google Signals remain disabled in every state.
Preference
Consent storage
Your analytics choice and the time you made it are stored in your
browser under sk_analytics_consent. An acceptance remains
in place until you change it. A decline is respected for 180 days
before the site may ask again. You can reopen the choice at any time
through Analytics settings in the footer.
Security
Cloudflare and Turnstile
Cloudflare provides DNS, traffic protection and the Turnstile check on
both forms. Turnstile evaluates browser and network signals to separate
people from automated abuse. When you submit, the one time token and
your IP address are sent to Cloudflare for verification.
Hosting
Technical and rate limit records
The hosting and security layers process ordinary request data such as
IP address, requested URL, time and user agent. The form rate limiter
stores a SHA 256 hash of the IP address with submission timestamps
outside the public site. Those small rate limit files become eligible
for removal after about 24 hours.
Purpose
Why it is used
Form details are used to answer the request and manage any work you ask
me to perform. Security records, rate limiting and Turnstile are used to
keep the site and mailbox safe. Analytics cookies are based on your
consent. Essential hosting and security processing is based on the need
to operate the service and prevent abuse.
