2. How I Use Your Information

I use the collected information to:

• Understand how visitors use my Site to improve its design and content.
• Monitor Site performance and search engine visibility.
• Ensure the Site functions properly.
• Conduct basic marketing, such as displaying targeted ads or sending promotional emails about my portfolio or services (with your consent where required).

I do not sell your data to third parties.

3. Cookies and Tracking

My Site uses cookies for analytics and basic marketing. Cookies are small files stored on your device to track usage and personalize ads. You can control cookies via my Site's cookie banner (if applicable) or your browser settings. To opt out of Google Analytics tracking, install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.

I use:

• Necessary Cookies: Essential for Site functionality.

• Marketing Cookies: Support targeted ads or tracking for marketing campaigns.

4. Email Communications

If you sign up for my email updates (e.g., newsletters), I may send you promotional emails about my portfolio or services. You can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in the emails or by contacting me at contact@artemdyachuk.com.

5. Sharing Your Information

I share data only with:

• Service Providers: Google and Vercel process data for analytics and marketing services. Their servers may be in the United States or other countries. See Google's Privacy Policy and Vercel's Privacy Policy.

7. Consent for Cookies and Marketing

For visitors in the EU, I obtain explicit consent for non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics and marketing) and email communications via a cookie banner or sign-up forms, as required by GDPR. You can update your preferences at any time via the cookie settings link (if available) or by contacting me.

9. International Data Transfers

Data processed by Google and Vercel may be transferred to the United States or other countries. I rely on their compliance with data protection laws, such as GDPR's standard contractual clauses.
