Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how jamestannahill.com and its subdomains (the "Site"), including map.jamestannahill.com and contact.jamestannahill.com, collect, use, and handle information when you visit or interact with them. The Site is a personal professional website. It does not operate user accounts and does not engage in behavioral advertising or retargeting.

By using the Site, you acknowledge the practices described in this Policy.

Information We Collect

The only personal information collected through this Site is what you voluntarily submit via the contact form. This may include:

• Full name
• Email address
• Phone number (optional)
• Subject and message content

Contact form submissions are transmitted directly to the Site owner's private email inbox via Amazon Web Services Simple Email Service (SES). They are not stored in any database, not logged to any analytics platform, and not retained by any third-party service beyond the email delivery pipeline.

Cookies & Analytics

This Site uses a limited set of Google services to operate fonts, video embeds, and basic traffic measurement. As a result, certain cookies may be set in your browser by Google when you visit this Site. Specifically:

• Google Fonts - used to render typography. Google may log standard request data (IP address, user-agent) on its CDN.
• YouTube embeds - any embedded YouTube video uses the standard YouTube player, which sets cookies and may collect viewing data per Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google Analytics 4 (GA4) - used to measure aggregate Site traffic and page-level engagement across jamestannahill.com, map.jamestannahill.com, and contact.jamestannahill.com (single GA4 property, ID G-WRDEHD4QYL). Sets _ga, _ga_*, _gid, and _gat cookies in your browser. Data is processed by Google LLC under the Google Privacy Policy. To opt out, install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on or use your browser's tracking-protection controls.

The Site does not use:

• Advertising networks or retargeting pixels (e.g., Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag)
• User accounts or login systems
• Any database that stores personal data submitted by visitors

Infrastructure & Server Logs

Static assets, video content, and site files are served through Amazon CloudFront (AWS). Per AWS default behavior, CloudFront and related infrastructure may capture standard server-side logs that include IP addresses, request timestamps, and browser user-agent strings. These logs are incidental to infrastructure operation, are not used for marketing or profiling purposes, and are governed by Amazon's Privacy Policy.

How We Use Your Information

Contact form submissions are used solely to respond to the inquiry submitted. Your information is not sold, rented, licensed, or shared with any third parties for commercial or marketing purposes. It will not be used to build profiles, target advertising, or contact you for any purpose unrelated to your original message.

Data Retention

Because contact form submissions go directly to the Site owner's private email inbox, retention is governed by standard email practices. There is no automated deletion schedule. If you wish to request deletion of a prior submission, contact web@jamestannahill.com.

European Visitors (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable UK data protection law with respect to any personal data you submit:

• Right of access - you may request confirmation of whether your data is held and receive a copy
• Right to rectification - you may request correction of inaccurate data
• Right to erasure - you may request deletion of your data
• Right to restrict processing - you may request that processing be limited
• Right to object - you may object to processing based on legitimate interests

To exercise any of these rights, contact web@jamestannahill.com. Requests will be honored within 30 days. Note that because the Site does not maintain a database, the practical scope of most requests is limited to email correspondence already in the inbox.
