Privacy Policy

and a pancake recipe.

Hey! I value your privacy just as much as my own. That’s why this website is designed to minimize the amount of data collected, and anything that is collected is fully anonymized.

SimpleAnalytics

Analytics are provided by SimpleAnalytics, which does not use cookies and does not collect personal data. The information gathered consists only of anonymous technical details, such as browser type, screen resolution, and country. This helps me optimize the site for the devices of my visitors.

External Links

If you click a link that leads outside this website (e.g., to GitHub), remember that their privacy policies apply there. Click wisely!

Contact Form

If you contact me through the form, the data you submit (name, email, and message content) must be processed by StaticForms, which sends me the information you entered via email, along with the time you spent filling out the form. This helps filter out submissions sent in a fraction of a second. Additionally:

reCAPTCHA

Because the internet is full of bots with more free time than you and me combined, the contact form is protected by Google reCAPTCHA.

What does this mean?

Google checks whether you’re a human by looking at things like how you move your mouse, your browser settings, the IP you're writing from, etc. – all to make sure that a robot from Uzbekistan doesn’t start sending me ViagraMax™ ads. Yes, I’ve received those. No, I didn’t try them ;P

By using the form, you agree that Google may process this data according to their policies. Here’s their paperwork:

In summary:

I aim to minimize data collection and protect your privacy by avoiding unnecessary cookies or trackers, and by using services that respect your data (well, maybe except Google – but there’s nothing better on the market, and it’s only used for the contact form!). If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to reach out!

Pancakes with Class™

Because who said a royal meal needs truffles and foie gras?

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (any you find in the kitchen works)
  • 1 cup milk – 2%, 3.2%, or slightly expired (we don't judge)
  • ½ cup sparkling water – for fluffiness and a touch of bubbly luxury
  • 2 eggs – free-range if you're fancy (or just from the fridge)
  • A pinch of salt – ideally sprinkled with a dramatic Salt Bae gesture
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (unless you eat pancakes with pork chops)
  • 2 tablespoons oil or butter – fitness can wait, burnt pancakes cannot

Preparation:

  1. Mix the ingredients with the grace of an alchemist – aim for a potion of lightness, not a cauldron of despair. The whisk is your wand.
  2. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes. It deserves it. You do too.
  3. Heat the pan – but not to the point it glows like the Sun.
  4. Pour in the batter, spread it like Picasso, fry until golden.
  5. Flip with one bold, confident move – ideally in front of an audience to earn admiration.
  6. Serve with whatever you fancy: jam, Nutella, cheese, fruit, or – if you're starving – even a hot dog.

Pro tip: if the first pancake turns out bad – that’s not a mistake, that’s tradition.
