This is a personal blog. I respect your privacy and collect minimal data.
Who I am
This website is operated by Alexander Golev, a private individual based in the United Kingdom. You can contact me at sasha@golev.com.
What data I collect
Contact form
When you use the contact form, I collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your message
- The page you submitted from
This information is sent directly to my email inbox. I do not store it in any database or share it with third parties. I use it only to respond to your message.
Hosting and technical data
This site is hosted on AWS (Amazon Web Services). Standard server logs may temporarily record IP addresses and request information for security and operational purposes. I do not access or analyse this data.
What I don't do
- I don't use cookies for tracking
- I don't use analytics (currently)
- I don't sell or share your data
- I don't send marketing emails unless you explicitly request them
Your rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data I hold about you. Since I only retain data in email form, you can request deletion by emailing me directly.
Changes
I may update this policy if I add new features (like analytics or a newsletter). Any significant changes will be noted here.
