1. Introduction
Welcome to StephBenoit.com, my portfolio site.
Your privacy matters to me, and I want to be upfront about how I handle data. In short:
- I don’t sell your data.
- I don’t collect personal information unless you willingly provide it (like signing up for a newsletter).
- I use cookies and analytics tools to understand how people use my site so I can improve it.
2. What Data I Collect (and Why)
I don’t track personal details like your name, email, or location unless you choose to share them (for example, by filling out a contact form). However, like most websites, I use cookies and analytics tools to gather general site traffic data, such as:
- Pages visited
- Time spent on the site
- How you found the site (search engine, social media, direct link, etc.)
- Browser type and device used
This data helps me understand what content resonates and how I can make the website better.
3. Cookies & Tracking
Cookies are tiny files stored on your browser that help improve your experience. I use them for:
- Website analytics – Tracking which pages get the most traffic
- Performance improvements – Figuring out what works (and what doesn’t)
You can disable cookies anytime in your browser settings.
4. Third-Party Services
I may use third-party tools like Google Analytics or similar services to track website performance. These tools may collect anonymous data, but they don’t share personally identifiable info.
5. Your Choices
You’re in control. If you don’t want to be tracked:
- Turn off cookies in your browser.
- Use a browser extension to block tracking scripts.
6. Changes to This Policy
I might update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page.
