Privacy policy

This website, lokhande.me, is run by Shrikant Lokhande. If you have any question about your data, email shrikant@lokhande.me.

I use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages and projects people find useful. Analytics cookies are only set if you click Accept in the cookie banner. Until then, and if you click Reject, Google Analytics runs in a restricted mode that sets no cookies.

When you accept, Google Analytics collects information such as the pages you view, how long you stay, your approximate location (country or city), your device and browser type, and the website that referred you. It also records when someone opens a project in the portfolio or unlocks the portfolio. I don't use advertising cookies, and I don't use this data to identify you personally.

The cookies are _ga and _ga_YREERE9EP8, which Google keeps for up to 2 years. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy.

These don't need consent because the site can't work as intended without them:

• cookie-consent, stored in your browser, remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies.
• portfolio_session is a cookie set only if you enter the portfolio password. It keeps you signed in to the extended portfolio for 7 days and contains no personal information.

Project videos in the portfolio are stored on Cloudflare, the site's hosting provider, and played with the site's own player. Videos in the extended portfolio are only sent to visitors who have entered the portfolio password. No third-party video player or tracking is involved.

If you email me or use the contact form, I use your name, email address and message only to reply to you. Contact form messages are delivered to my inbox by Resend, an email delivery service, and aren't stored on the website. I don't add you to a mailing list or share your details with anyone, and I delete messages once they're no longer needed.

The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which may log technical information such as IP addresses to keep the service secure and reliable. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.

You can change your cookie choice at any time with the button below or the Cookie settings link in the footer. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, or to object to how it's used. To make a request, email shrikant@lokhande.me.

If this policy changes, I'll update it here and change the date at the top.
