Privacy

Who this is

aliarain.com is Ali Arain's personal site. It isn't run by a separate company, and it doesn't sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers. There are no ad networks and no ad-tracking cookies anywhere on this site.

Analytics

Page views are measured with Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool that doesn't use tracking cookies and reports aggregated, anonymized traffic — which pages are popular and roughly where visitors come from. It can't identify you individually.

Local storage, in your browser only

Your light/dark theme preference and the article "view count" shown on notes are stored in your browser'slocalStorageand sessionStorage. Neither is transmitted to this site or to me — they exist only on your own device, and clearing your browser data clears them.

Contact form

The form on /connect sends whatever you type (name, email, message) to FormSubmit, a third-party service that relays it to my inbox by email. I use that message only to reply to you. You can skip the form entirely and email realaliarain@gmail.com directly.

Booking a call

The "Work with me" / "Book a call" buttons open Cal.com. Whatever you share there to schedule a call is governed by Cal.com's own privacy policy, not this one.

Questions

If you have a question about any of this, email realaliarain@gmail.com.
