How this site handles personal data.

Who controls this website?

This website is operated by Shahab Gohar. For privacy questions, requests, or concerns, contact: shahab.developer.work@gmail.com.

This notice is written for a small professional portfolio website. It is not a substitute for legal advice, but it explains the current data handling choices made on this site.

What data is collected?

• Essential local preference: your analytics consent choice is stored in your browser so the banner does not repeatedly appear.
• Analytics data, only if accepted: Google Analytics may process page views, device/browser information, approximate location, referrer, and interaction data.
• Email contact data: if you email me, I receive the information you choose to send, such as your name, email address, company, project details, and message content.
• External profile links: if you open LinkedIn, Skype, SuiteCRM Store, or other third-party links, those services process data under their own privacy terms.

Why is the data used?

• To remember your privacy choice on this website.
• To understand general site usage if you consent to analytics.
• To reply to project inquiries and professional messages.
• To keep basic business records related to client communication.

Legal bases

Analytics is based on your consent. You can reject analytics and still use the site. Professional email communication is handled to respond to your request or take steps before a possible contract. Some records may be kept where needed for legitimate business, accounting, or legal reasons.

Cookies and analytics

Google Analytics is configured to load manually only after you accept analytics cookies. Advertising storage and personalization are disabled. You can reopen the banner using the Privacy settings button and change your choice.

More detail is available in the cookie notice.

Retention

Your local consent choice remains in your browser until you change it, clear site data, or remove browser storage. Email messages are kept only as long as needed for communication, project context, business records, or legal obligations.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, including if you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of your personal data. You may also withdraw consent for analytics at any time.

To make a request, email shahab.developer.work@gmail.com.

International processing

This website may be viewed internationally. If you contact me or accept analytics, your data may be processed outside your country, including by email, hosting, and analytics providers. I aim to keep collection minimal and avoid unnecessary tracking.
