Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 8, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Charles Sexton ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our website at charlessexton.com (the "Service").

Information We Collect

Analytics Data

We use Umami Analytics, a privacy-focused analytics service hosted in the European Union. Umami is designed to be GDPR-compliant and does not use cookies or collect personal data. The analytics data we collect includes:

  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referrer information (how you found our site)
  • General geographic location (country/region level only)
  • Device type and browser (anonymised)

This data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify individual users. We do not track you across websites or sell any data to third parties.

Contact Information

If you contact us via LinkedIn or other channels, we may receive information you choose to provide, such as your name and message content.

Comment Data

If you choose to leave a comment on our blog posts, we collect and store:

  • Your display name (from your account profile)
  • The content of your comment
  • The date and time of your comment

Comments are subject to moderation before they appear publicly. You can request deletion of your comments by contacting us.

Browser-Based Tools

Our website provides various tools (such as the SVG Converter) that process data entirely within your browser. No data entered into these tools is transmitted to our servers. All processing occurs locally on your device.

Cookies

Our website uses minimal cookies:

  • Essential cookies: Required for basic site functionality (e.g., theme preferences stored in local storage)
  • No tracking cookies: We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Understand how visitors use our website to improve content and user experience
  • Respond to enquiries and communications
  • Maintain and improve the Service

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. We may share anonymised, aggregated analytics data that cannot identify individual users.

Data Retention

Analytics data is retained in aggregated form. We do not maintain databases of personal information for website visitors.

Your Rights

Under UK GDPR and data protection law, you have rights regarding your personal data, including:

  • The right to access information we hold about you
  • The right to request correction or deletion of your data
  • The right to object to processing
  • The right to data portability

Given our minimal data collection practices, we typically do not hold personal data that would be subject to these requests. If you have concerns, please contact us.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us.
