When you fill out the contact form, I collect the details you choose to share:
I use this information only to reply to you, answer your questions and prepare a quote or proposal. The form is powered by WPForms. Submissions are sent to me by email and are also saved in my website’s database so I can keep track of inquiries.
To keep out spam, each submission is checked by WPForms and by Maspik Pro before it reaches me. These checks use your IP address to confirm the message comes from the United States, and confirm the message is written in English. If you’re outside the U.S., please call me instead. Messages are delivered to my inbox using FluentSMTP, which sends them through my email provider.
Website analytics. I use Independent Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool that runs on my own website. It counts things like which pages are visited, how visitors found the site, the type of device and browser, and general location. It does not use cookies, and your IP address is only used briefly to estimate location and is not stored. This data stays on my website’s server and is not shared with Google or any other analytics company.
Server logs. Like most websites, my hosting provider automatically keeps standard server logs. These can include your IP address, browser type, the pages you requested and the date and time of your visit. They are used for security and to keep the site running properly.
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. My analytics do not use cookies, and I don’t use cookies for advertising or tracking. Some cookies may still be set:
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site will still work if you do.
