Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

This website is operated by Mohamed Shaaban (Shabonto), an individual freelancer. Your privacy is very important to me, and this Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used, and your rights.

2. What Personal Data We Collect and Why

We collect minimal personal data, only when you choose to provide it:

a. Contact Forms

When you use the contact form, your name, email address, and message are sent to me directly so I can respond to your inquiry. This information is not stored in any database.

b. Payments via PayPal

If you use PayPal buttons to make payments, your payment is processed directly through PayPal. I do not collect or store your financial information. Please refer to PayPal’s Privacy Policy for more on how they handle your data.

c. Analytics (via MonsterInsights + Google Analytics)

I use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website (like which countries visitors are from and how many visit). Google Analytics collects anonymized data such as:

  • IP address (masked)

  • Browser type

  • Referring URLs

  • Pages visited and time spent

This data is used to improve the website and is not personally identifiable.

3. Cookies

This website may set cookies related to analytics (via Google Analytics). You can control cookies through your browser settings. As of now, I do not use a cookie consent plugin, but please assume that cookies may be present through analytics.

4. Who We Share Your Data With

I do not share or sell your personal data with any third parties. The only third-party services in use are:

  • Google Analytics (for analytics)

  • PayPal (for secure payments)

These services may collect anonymized data as per their respective privacy policies.

5. How Long Your Data is Retained

  • Contact form messages are kept only as long as necessary to respond.

  • Analytics data is retained per Google’s standard settings (usually 14 months, anonymized).

6. Your Rights (GDPR/CCPA)

If you are located in the European Union or certain US states, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data I may hold about you

  • Request correction or deletion

  • Object to processing

  • Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

To exercise these rights, please contact me at:

7. Security

Your data is transmitted securely via SSL (HTTPS). While no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, I take reasonable steps to protect your information.
