Privacy

Your choice

Analytics are on by default, disclosed on first visit. This control is the stable, reversible place to change that at any time, on any page. Your choice is stored only in your own browser and never sent anywhere by itself.

What's collected, and why

Page views

PostHog's standard $pageview autocapture. Answers "is anyone actually visiting this page."

A small set of semantic interactions

Which nav links, portfolio projects, AI Lab tools, and primary calls-to-action get used, plus outbound link clicks (GitHub, LinkedIn, résumé, etc.). Each event exists to answer one specific, stated question about whether a part of the site works, not to build a behavioral profile. This is deliberately not comprehensive click-tracking.

Aggregate chat engagement

Whether a visitor sent at least one message to the AI Lab chat, once per session. The same aggregate pattern covers /prehog's own "Ask about PostHog fit" chat (plus which preset starter question was used, and whether the conversation was reset; see its supplemental privacy page). In every case, message content, prompts, and responses are never sent to PostHog or any other analytics. See the AI Lab chat's own "Privacy & Data Handling" panel for how that product handles conversation data, and how it's transmitted (Firebase Functions to OpenRouter, not analytics) instead.

What's deliberately not collected

No names, no email addresses, no precise location beyond PostHog's default country-level estimate, and no cross-site identity linking: there's no identify() call anywhere on this site, so every visitor stays anonymous to it. No blanket click-tracking, and PostHog itself never captures free text beyond the one Session-Replay-masked field on /prehog's own survey. That's specifically about what reaches PostHog: the AI Lab chat features (site-wide and on /prehog) do transmit your typed questions as free text, but to Firebase Functions and OpenRouter, a separate destination from PostHog entirely, detailed in the chat-engagement row above and each feature's own privacy disclosure.

Where it goes

Events are sent to PostHog through t.benlive.tv, a first-party reverse-proxy subdomain that forwards ingestion traffic to my own PostHog project, not directly to a third-party domain. Persistence is localStorage+cookie, scoped to this site. See PostHog's own privacy policy for how they handle it on their end. Nothing is sold or shared with third parties for advertising.

/prehog runs more

/prehog is a working PostHog implementation built to demonstrate PostHog competence, so it additionally runs Session Replay, a short survey, and its own "Ask about PostHog fit" AI chat, all scoped to that one page. Its own supplemental privacy page covers exactly what's different there.
