Information collected

The site may collect information you choose to send through email links or contact-related interactions, such as your name, email address, company, message content, and any context you decide to provide. When analytics cookies are accepted, limited technical information may also be collected, including device type, browser, approximate location, pages visited, referral source, and interaction events.

How information is used

Information is used to respond to messages, evaluate professional opportunities, maintain the website, understand aggregate site usage, improve content, troubleshoot technical issues, and protect the website from spam, abuse, or security problems. Analytics data is reviewed in aggregate where possible and is not used to sell personal information.

Analytics and cookies

Analytics services such as Google Tag Manager and Yandex Metrica are only loaded after you accept analytics cookies. You can reject analytics cookies and continue using the site. If you accept analytics, those providers may process usage data according to their own privacy terms and may set cookies or similar identifiers to measure visits and interactions.

Sharing

Personal information is not sold. Data may be processed by service providers that help operate the website, analytics, hosting, security, or communications. Information may also be disclosed if required by law, to protect rights or safety, or to respond to a valid legal process. Public links to third-party profiles and publications are provided for reference only.

Your rights

Depending on your location, including the EU/EEA, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for analytics where consent is the basis for processing. You can contact hello@melkon.tech to make a request. I may need enough information to verify and process the request.

Retention

Information is kept only as long as needed for the purposes described here, unless a longer period is required by law or legitimate operational needs. Contact messages may be retained while a conversation, opportunity, or professional relationship remains active. Analytics information is retained according to the settings and retention policies of the analytics providers.

This website may be accessed globally, and service providers may process data in countries other than your own. Where required, reasonable safeguards are used for service providers and processing activities connected to the operation of the site.
