Privacy Policy

The contact form

If you send an inquiry through the form on this site, you provide your name, your email address, an optional inquiry type and your message. That submission is passed to a small service run for this site, which formats it and emails it to Paul through Resend, an email delivery provider. Your email address is set as the reply address so Paul can answer you directly.

There is no database. Your message is not stored in any system beyond the email itself, which stays in Paul's mailbox for as long as it is useful to keep, and in Resend's delivery logs under their own retention policy. Your message is used to answer you and for nothing else. It is never sold, and it is not added to a mailing list.

To keep the form from being abused, the service briefly holds your IP address in memory to enforce a per-sender limit, and records it in its server logs if a submission is rejected as spam. Those counters expire within the hour and the logs are operational records, not a visitor profile. The service runs on Railway, which hosts it and retains those logs on its own schedule.

Analytics

This site uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits and see which pages people actually look at. It is deliberately the least invasive option available: it sets no cookies, uses no local or session storage, does not fingerprint your device and does not follow you to any other website. What is reported back is aggregate — page views, referring sites, broad location such as country, browser and device type — and it is not tied to you as an individual.

Serving the measurement script means your browser contacts Cloudflare, and Cloudflare processes the request, including your IP address, to derive that coarse information. Cloudflare states that it does not use the IP address to build a profile or to track visitors across sites. Their handling is governed by the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Cookies and browser storage

This site sets no cookies of its own and stores nothing in your browser's local or session storage. There is no advertising script, no tracking pixel and no visitor profiling. Because nothing is stored on your device, there is no consent banner to click through. YouTube is the one exception, and only if you press play — see below.

What third parties may collect

Some parts of the site are delivered by other companies. When your browser loads that content, it necessarily contacts those companies directly, and they may record technical information such as your IP address, browser version and the page you were viewing. That processing is governed by their privacy policies, not this one.

Links to other sites

This site links to PaulBoothArt.com, PaulBoothBrand.com, DarkImages.com and to social profiles on Instagram and YouTube. Once you follow a link, the destination's own privacy policy applies.

Children

This site is not directed at children, and no information is knowingly collected from anyone under 18. Some artwork depicts mature and dark themes and is intended for an adult audience.

Your rights

The analytics are aggregate and hold nothing that identifies you, so there is nothing there to retrieve or erase. If you have sent an inquiry through the contact form, you can ask for a copy of what was received, ask for a correction, or ask for the message to be deleted from Paul's mailbox. Write to the address below and the request will be answered. Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.

Changes

This policy may be updated as the site changes. The date at the top always reflects the current version.
