Privacy Policy
How this website handles your data, cookies and analytics — in plain language.
Overview
This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit nikhilrai7081.com (the "site"), how it is used, and the choices you have. The site is a personal portfolio operated by Nikhil Rai. I aim to collect as little data as possible.
Information collected
Analytics data. With your consent, the site uses Google Analytics 4 (via Google Tag Manager) to understand how visitors use the site — for example pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type. This data is aggregated and is not used to personally identify you.
Contact form. If you use the contact form, the name, email address and message you submit are sent to me (via the form provider, Web3Forms) so I can reply. This information is used only to respond to your enquiry.
The site does not knowingly collect sensitive personal information, and there is no advertising or ad-targeting on it.
Cookies & consent
Analytics cookies are only set after you accept via the cookie banner. Until you accept, analytics is disabled (Google Consent Mode defaults to denied). If you decline, no analytics cookies are stored.
You can change your choice at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser, which will make the consent banner appear again.
Third-party services
The site relies on a few trusted third parties, each with their own privacy policies:
These providers process data on my behalf. I do not sell your data to anyone.
Data retention
Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics' standard retention settings. Contact-form messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry and any follow-up.
Your rights
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data you've shared with me (for example a message you sent via the contact form). To make a request, just email me using the address below.
