Privacy Policy

Introduction

Hey there! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I’m Álvaro, the person behind this website. Your privacy is important to me, and I’m committed to keeping your data safe and sound. This Privacy Policy is here to explain what personal information I collect, how I use it, and how I protect it. By hanging out on my website, you’re agreeing to these terms – no surprises here!

Information I Collect

When you visit my website, I collect some basic info to keep things running smoothly. Here’s what I get:

Personal Data:

Your Name (if you decide to share it)
Company Name (if you’re feeling generous)
Email Address (so I can reply to your messages)
IP Address (just for analytics and security purposes, promise I won’t stalk you)

Non-Personal Data:

Cookies: I use cookies to track how you interact with the site. This helps me make your experience better (and maybe feed you more relevant content). These cookies can record things like your browser, language preference, and the time you spend on my site.
Usage Data: This includes details about how you use the site, like what pages you visit, how long you stay, and what actions you take. It’s all about understanding what works (and what doesn’t).

How I Use Your Information

I’m not here to use your data for anything weird. I use your information for the following:

To keep the site running smoothly: I use your data to improve the website and make it more enjoyable to use.
To communicate with you: If you reach out, I’ll use your email to respond or help with whatever questions you have.
To analyze how the site is doing: I use tools like Google Analytics to get a sense of how visitors interact with the site, so I can improve things over time.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Yep, cookies. I use them. I know, they’re a bit of a buzzkill, but they really help make the site work better and give me insights into how you’re using it. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so might make some parts of the site not work quite as well.

If you want more info on how cookies work, take a peek at my Cookie Policy.

How I Protect Your Information

I take your privacy seriously. I use various security measures to protect your data, but let’s be real – no system is completely foolproof. While I do my best to keep your data secure, I can’t promise 100% protection (hey, I’m not a superhero!).

I don’t sell or trade your info to anyone. But there are a couple of cases where I might need to share it:

Service Providers: I work with some third parties (like hosting services or email platforms) to help run the site, and they might need access to your data to do their job.
Legal Requirements: If the law says I need to share your data, I’ll have to comply (but I’ll do my best to keep it minimal).

Your Rights

Depending on where you are in the world, you might have some rights regarding your data. For example:

Access: You can ask me to show you what data I have about you.
Correction: If I’ve got something wrong, just let me know and I’ll fix it.
Deletion: You can ask me to delete your data (but keep in mind, there are some exceptions).

Changes to This Policy

I might update this Privacy Policy every now and then. If I do, I’ll post the updated version right here, so you’ll always know what’s going on. The last update date will be listed at the top.

Last updated: Jan 2025
