Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
What this covers
This policy explains how Midhun Jose (https://www.midhun.in) handles personal data. This is a personal portfolio and professional site — it has no user accounts, no e-commerce, and no database of visitor records.
What information is collected
What you voluntarily submit through the contact form — your name, email address, and message content — plus, only if you accept the cookie banner shown on your first visit, anonymized usage analytics via Google Analytics (page views, general location at the country/region level, device type). Nothing analytics-related loads or runs until you actively accept.
Cookies & analytics
If you accept the cookie banner, this site uses Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site — which pages get read, general traffic patterns — so it can be improved over time. This is not personally identifiable to you; it’s aggregate usage data, and no data is sold or shared beyond Google’s own processing as the analytics provider. If you decline, or simply don’t interact with the banner, nothing is tracked. You can at any time — this reopens the banner so you can choose again.
How it’s used and processed
Contact form submissions are used solely to respond to your inquiry. Submissions are processed through Web3Forms, a third-party form-relay service, which delivers your message directly to the site owner’s email inbox. This site does not store submissions in a database, sell or share your information with any other third party, or use it for marketing or mailing lists.
Data retention
Submitted messages are retained only in the site owner’s personal email inbox, for as long as reasonably needed to respond to and keep a record of the inquiry.
Your rights
If you are located in the UK, EU, or India, you have rights under applicable data protection law (including UK GDPR, EU GDPR, and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act) to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data you’ve submitted. To exercise these rights, use the contact form and state your request.
External links
This site links to external sites such as LinkedIn. Once you leave midhun.in, that site’s own privacy policy applies — this policy covers midhun.in only.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated from time to time, particularly if analytics or additional tools are added to the site in the future. Check back periodically for changes.
