Privacy Policy

Who we are

This privacy policy applies to oliverlibby.com, the personal website of Oliver B. Libby, based in Washington, DC, United States.

Information we collect

When you submit the contact form, we collect: your name, email address, organization (optional), the inquiry type you selected, and the message you sent. We also automatically log the page URL, referrer, IP address, user-agent string, and submission timestamp for spam mitigation and analytics.

We use Google Analytics 4 to measure aggregate site usage. GA4 sets cookies for session tracking and may collect anonymized device, location, and browsing data. You can opt out by enabling Do Not Track in your browser, or by installing the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.

How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiry within 48 hours.
• To detect and prevent spam (honeypot, timing, IP, Cloudflare Turnstile).
• To analyze aggregate site usage and improve content.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not share it with third parties for marketing.

Third-party services

• Forms backend — submissions are processed by an in-house Node.js service that stores entries in a private SQLite database and forwards them via email.
• Cloudflare — DNS, CDN, SSL, and Turnstile bot protection.
• Google Analytics 4 — anonymized usage analytics.
• Google Fonts — Playfair Display and Source Sans 3 web fonts. Fonts are served from Google's CDN.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies for analytics (Google Analytics 4) and security (Cloudflare). No advertising or tracking cookies are set by oliverlibby.com directly.

Your rights
