Privacy Policy

1. Overview

This website (yashvarma.in) is operated by Yash Varma, based in Dublin, Ireland. I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal data in full compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable data protection legislation.

2. Information Collected

I only collect information that is strictly necessary for communicating with you, fulfilling service requests, and maintaining site performance:

• Contact Information: When you send an email, book a call via Calendly, or start a message through the on-site chat interface, you may provide your name, email address, phone number, and project details.
• Technical Logs: Minimal server connection metadata (such as IP address, browser type, referring URLs, and response status) collected automatically to prevent abusive traffic and ensure uptime.
• Interactive Demos: In-browser simulators (such as PenguinOS, Skyfall Flight Simulator, and Afterburner) execute entirely client-side. No telemetry or personal inputs from these simulations are sent to external servers.

3. How Your Information Is Used

Any data provided is used exclusively for:

• Replying directly to your inquiries and consultation requests.
• Delivering software engineering, AI automation, and consulting engagements.
• Maintaining system security, mitigating automated spam, and diagnosing infrastructure errors.

I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information with any third party.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

This website uses minimal essential cookies and browser storage solely required for operational functionality (such as remembering UI preferences and session states in client-side demos). No third-party behavioral advertising trackers are employed.

5. Data Retention & Security

Inquiry messages and emails are retained only as long as needed to maintain business correspondence or comply with legal requirements. Appropriate technical safeguards, including HTTPS encryption, secure HTTP headers, and strict access controls, are implemented to protect your data.

6. Your Rights Under GDPR & CCPA

Depending on your jurisdiction, you have statutory rights concerning your personal information:

• The right to request access to the data held about you.
• The right to rectify inaccurate or incomplete details.
• The right to request erasure (“the right to be forgotten”).
• The right to restrict or object to data processing.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact me directly at security@yashvarma.in.
