Cookie policy

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about you. Many websites use them for things like keeping you logged in, remembering preferences, or tracking your activity across the internet.

This site uses the following categories of cookies:

Strictly necessary

These cookies are essential for the website to function. They do not require your consent.

Analytics (requires consent)

These cookies help me understand how visitors use the site. They are only set if you accept analytics cookies via the consent banner.

When you first visit this site, a consent banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. You can:

• Choose Accept all to turn on analytics and help me improve the site
• Choose Essential only to browse without analytics tracking
• Change your choice at any time with the button below, or the cookie settings link in the footer

Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled because the site needs them to function properly.

This website uses localStorage to remember your cookie consent preference so the consent banner does not reappear on every visit. Aside from that preference, the site itself stores no other data in localStorage or sessionStorage. Analytics services you consent to, such as Zoho SalesIQ, may use their own browser storage while they run.

If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics (provided by Google LLC) will process data about your visit. Google's privacy policy is available at Google's privacy policy (opens in new tab). IP anonymisation is enabled.

If you accept analytics cookies, Zoho SalesIQ (Zoho Corporation) also loads and records visit data such as the pages you view, your browser, and an approximate location derived from your IP address, which I can see in the SalesIQ dashboard. There is no chat window; the service runs for visitor analytics only. Zoho processes this data under Zoho's privacy policy (opens in new tab). If you later reject analytics cookies, the site deletes Zoho's cookies where it can and stops loading the service from your next page view; any remaining cookies stay until they expire or you clear them in your browser.

The site is hosted and protected by Cloudflare, which may set a cf_clearance security cookie (see the table above) to guard against automated abuse.

This site's fonts are self-hosted: the font files ship with the site and are served from this domain, so your browser does not contact Google or any external font service for them. The one exception is the interactive prototypes embedded in the Heingrid case study, which load their fonts from Google Fonts. Cloudflare Web Analytics counts page views on every page without setting cookies.

External links (such as to LinkedIn) open in a new tab and are governed by those services' own privacy policies. This site has no control over what those external services do.

This website is hosted and served through Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may collect standard server logs (such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit) and set the cf_clearance security cookie described above. These are maintained by Cloudflare for security and operational purposes and are not accessed or used by me for any other purpose. Cloudflare retains these logs on its own systems for a limited period under its own retention schedule, described in Cloudflare's privacy policy (opens in new tab); this site does not receive or keep a copy.

If this site changes how it uses cookies, this page will be updated to reflect that. Any significant changes will be clearly noted with a revised date at the top of this page.
