Privacy Policy

Hi, I'm Mudit Garg — the owner of muditgarg.in. This is a personal website and blog. The short version: it's a static site that collects almost no personal data. Here are the details.

What this site collects

• No accounts, no sign-ups, no comments. There is nothing to register for and no comment system, so I don't collect names, emails, or any profile information from visitors.
• Server logs. The site is hosted on Vercel. Like any web host, Vercel automatically processes standard request data (such as IP address, browser user-agent, and the pages requested) to serve the site and keep it secure. This is handled by Vercel under their privacy policy. I don't use these logs to identify individual visitors.
• No advertising or tracking cookies. The site does not run ad networks or third-party tracking cookies.

Your browser's local storage

The site remembers small conveniences in your own browser's local storage — for example, your light/dark theme preference. This information stays on your device and is never sent to me or anyone else.

The “Dito” AI assistant

Dito is the AI chat assistant on this site. It answers questions about me, grounded in information I've provided about myself (my resume, CV, blog posts, coursework, and public professional profiles). When you send Dito a message, that message is sent to this site's server and to Google's Gemini API, which generates the reply. Google processes it under its own terms and, on the free tier, may use the content to improve its services — so please don't share anything private or sensitive with the assistant.

To see what visitors find useful and to improve the assistant, I log the questions asked and the answers given, along with a timestamp and an approximate country (derived from standard network data). I do not store your IP address or anything that identifies you personally, and there are no chat accounts. These logs are kept in a private database that only I can access. If you'd like something you typed removed, email me and I'll delete it.

Links and embedded content

Blog posts and pages may link to, or embed content from, other websites (for example images from external sources, or video and social embeds). Those third-party sites behave as if you had visited them directly and may collect data under their own privacy policies. External links I share are governed by the destination's policy, not this one.

Analytics

This site uses Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand aggregate traffic and performance — for example, which pages are visited and how quickly they load. Both are privacy-friendly: they don't use cookies, don't track you across other websites, and don't collect information that identifies you personally. This data is processed by Vercel under their privacy policy.

Contacting me

If you reach out by email, I'll have whatever you choose to send me (your email address and your message), used only to reply to you. You can contact me any time at mudit.workplace@gmail.com with questions about this policy or to ask me to delete anything you sent.

Changes

I may update this policy occasionally. Any changes will appear on this page with a new “last updated” date.
