Privacy Policy

This site (riccardopisano.com) is operated by Riccardo Pisano. This policy explains what the site collects, how it's used, and which third parties are involved. I keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the site and reply to you.

Information I collect

When you use the contact form. If you send a message through the "Email me" form, I collect the email address, subject, and message you provide. Submissions are processed by Netlify (the site's host) and delivered to my inbox so I can reply.

When you book a call. The booking popup is an embedded Cal.com scheduler. If you book, Cal.com collects your name, email, chosen time, and anything you add to the booking, and it creates a calendar event and a Google Meet link. That information is handled under Cal.com's and Google's own privacy policies.

Automatic technical data. Like most websites, the host (Netlify) may log standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, and pages requested, for security and operations.

Theme preference. The site remembers your light or dark choice using your browser's local storage. This stays on your device and is not sent to me.

Analytics. I use Plausible Analytics to see aggregate traffic, such as which pages are visited and roughly where visitors come from. Plausible is privacy-focused and cookieless: it does not set cookies, does not store personal data, and does not track you across websites or devices. The numbers it produces are aggregated and cannot be used to identify you.

I do not run advertising, and beyond the privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics described above I do not use tracking pixels or cross-site trackers.

Third-party services

The site relies on a few providers, each with its own privacy policy: Netlify (hosting and form handling), Cal.com (call scheduling), Plausible (privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics), and Google (the booking creates a Google Calendar event and Google Meet link, and embedded videos use YouTube's privacy-enhanced no-cookie player, which loads only when you click play). Fonts are self-hosted, so no font request goes to a third party. When third-party content loads or you interact with it, those providers may receive your IP address and set their own cookies.

How I use your information

I use what you send to respond to your message, to schedule and hold our call, and to keep the site secure and working. I do not sell your information, and I do not share it except with the providers above as needed to operate the site.

Data retention

I keep contact messages and booking details for as long as needed to respond to you and for a reasonable period afterward, then delete them when they are no longer needed.

Your choices

You can ask me what information I hold about you, or ask me to delete it, by emailing rplabsllc@gmail.com. You can also refuse or clear cookies in your browser, though some embedded features (like the booking scheduler) may not work fully without them.

Children

This site is intended for a professional audience and is not directed to children.

International visitors

The site and its providers are based in the United States. By using the site, you understand your information may be processed there.

Changes

I may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above will reflect any changes.
