Your choices stay yours.

Optional website analytics

Google Analytics stays off until you choose “Allow Google Analytics.” If you allow it, I use it to understand page use, clicks on booking and contact buttons, and whether visitors start or reach 25, 50, 75, or 100 percent of the client review video. Google Analytics may set first-party analytics cookies and process a client or session identifier, approximate location, browser and device details, acquisition information, the referrer origin, and the page path.

My custom events send page paths without URL search parameters plus the button placement, service group, contact channel, controlled inquiry intent, controlled brief profile, inquiry stage, anonymous experiment label, anonymous media ID, and approved progress percentage. They do not send client names, transcript text, media URLs, message text, phone numbers, email addresses, form fields, or contact-link destinations. Enhanced Measurement, advertising storage, Google Signals, and ad personalization are disabled. The property is currently set to retain event data for 2 months and user data for 14 months. Google notes that property setting changes can take up to 24 hours.

If you allow Google Analytics, I measure clicks that open the planning-call page or enquiry form using fixed event and placement labels. These events do not include your entered brief or contact details. A click does not prove that a call was booked or an enquiry was received.

You can change your choice at any time with the Analytics preferences link in the footer. Turning analytics off disables future measurement and clears Google Analytics cookies that this site can access.

Anonymous reach and site performance

Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights remain active whether Google Analytics is on or off. Web Analytics counts anonymous, cookie-free page views on allowlisted page routes. It does not use cookies or cross-site identifiers. Query strings, hashes, unknown route text, and identifiers are removed before page-view data is sent. I do not send custom Vercel Analytics events.

Speed Insights measures real-device performance for the same allowlisted routes under Vercel’s service settings and retention terms. The Analytics preferences link controls Google Analytics only. Turning Google Analytics off does not turn off Vercel’s anonymous page-view or performance measurement.

Your photo brief

The brief you prepare on this site stays in your browser tab. It is not saved to my Studio or sent to me automatically. Copying it uses your clipboard. Opening WhatsApp prepares it as a message for you to send.

Google and CloudSpot links do not include your brief or contact details. You choose what to enter or paste in their forms.

When you contact me

WhatsApp, phone, and email open the service you choose. Information you send through those services is handled under that provider’s terms and is used to answer your inquiry, plan the work, and keep the records needed to deliver the service.

If you choose a planning call, Google Calendar opens separately and handles the booking details you enter. You can paste your prepared brief into its optional field. The appointment is for a planning call and does not reserve a shoot date.

If you choose the enquiry form, CloudSpot opens separately and asks for your name, email and brief. Submitting the form adds those details to my CloudSpot Studio account so I can reply to your enquiry and plan the work.
