Privacy Policy

This is a personal portfolio site. It sells nothing, runs no advertising, and sets no third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Everything it does handle is listed below.

Last updated: 22 August 2026.

Analytics

The site records a page view when a page loads. Each record holds the path that was viewed, a timestamp, and a coarse location — city and country — derived from the network headers Vercel adds at the edge. It does not store IP addresses, device fingerprints, or any identifier that would let one visitor be recognised across sessions. The aggregate counts are what appear in the visitor statistics in the site footer.

Page performance is measured with Vercel Speed Insights, which reports anonymous timing metrics such as load and interaction latency.

Contact form

If you submit the contact form, the name, email address, and message you type are stored so that Abhinav can reply. That data is used for correspondence only. It is never sold, rented, or shared with third parties, and it is deleted on request.

AI chat assistant

The chat assistant at /ai sends the messages you type to a hosted language model provider so a reply can be generated. Your conversation history is kept in your own browser's local storage and is not uploaded to a server — clearing your browser storage removes it permanently. Do not enter passwords, financial details, or other sensitive personal information into the chat.

Cookies and local storage

The site uses browser local storage for preferences you set yourself: the light or dark theme, the chat assistant's appearance, and a per-day counter that rate-limits chat usage. These stay on your device. No advertising or analytics cookies are set.

Third-party services

Pages are hosted on Vercel, which processes request metadata as part of delivering them. Some pages embed images and media from third-party content delivery networks. Those providers see only the request needed to serve the asset.

Your rights

You can ask what the site holds about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Email abhinavay2003@gmail.com and the request will be handled within 30 days. Because the site collects no account data and no persistent identifiers, in most cases the only record tied to you is a contact form submission.

Automated clients

Crawlers and AI agents are welcome. Crawl policy is published at /robots.txt, a machine-readable site guide at /llms.txt, and structured read-only interfaces at /developers. Automated requests are subject to the same analytics described above.

Changes

Material changes to this policy will be reflected in the last-updated date above. Questions go to abhinavay2003@gmail.com.
