Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 25, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how your data is handled when you use this website: https://www.yohei-kano.com/.
1. Limited Data Collection (Contact Only)
By default, you can browse this website without creating an account or filling in any profile, and I do not track your behavior across pages. However, if you choose to contact me via the contact form or email, I will process the personal data you provide (such as your name, email address, and message contents) for the purposes of replying to you and improving my services and this website.
X. Contact Form and Email
When you send a message via the contact form, you may be asked for:
- Your name or handle
- Your email address
- A category for your inquiry (e.g., work, feedback, other)
- Your message
Providing this information is voluntary, but I may not be able to reply without at least your email address and message. Messages are delivered to my email inbox (Google Workspace / Gmail) and may be stored there as part of my normal email correspondence. I do not sell or share this information with third parties for marketing purposes. If you would like me to delete past messages from you, you can contact me and I will do so where reasonably possible.
2. No Cookies or Trackers
This website does not use cookies, analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), or any third-party tracking technologies.
3. Client-Side Features
Most of the tools on this website operate exclusively within your browser. Data related to these features is not transmitted to my servers and is stored exclusively within your browser (e.g., in local storage). This does not apply to information you voluntarily submit via contact forms or emails, which will be processed as described in the "Contact forms and emails" section.
4. Local Storage
Some features may store non-personal data in your browser's local storage to enhance usability. This data remains on your device and is never transmitted externally.
5. Hosting and Access Logs
This website is hosted on Vercel, a secure and reliable hosting platform. While the site owner does not collect any personal data, basic access logs (such as IP addresses) may be temporarily handled by the hosting provider for operational and security purposes. This information is not used for analytics or tracking.
6. Third-Party Service Providers
This website is hosted on Vercel, which may temporarily process basic technical information (such as IP addresses and access logs) for operational and security purposes. In addition, email messages sent via the contact form or directly to my email address are handled by Google Workspace / Gmail as my email service provider. These providers process data only to the extent necessary to host the site and deliver email. I do not use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) or advertising trackers on this website.
7. Children’s Privacy
This website is not intended for children under the age of 13. No information is knowingly collected from minors.
8. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated occasionally. When changes are made, the updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
