Privacy Policy — Yamraj Khadka

This policy explains how yamrajkhadka.com.np ("the site") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit or contact me. By using the site, you agree to this policy.

2. Information I collect

Information you provide. When you submit the contact form, I receive your name, email address, company or project name, and the message you write.

Information collected automatically. If analytics is enabled, the site may collect your IP address (often truncated), browser type, device type, referring page, pages visited, and time on page.

Cookies. The site may use essential cookies for basic functionality and, after advertising is enabled, third-party cookies for advertising and measurement.

3. How I use information

To respond to your enquiry and provide requested services
To operate, maintain, and improve the site
To understand which content is useful (aggregate analytics)
To display advertising, if and when advertising is enabled
To comply with legal obligations

I do not sell your personal information.

4. Legal basis

Where applicable, processing is based on your consent (contact form submissions and non-essential cookies), the performance of a contract (client engagements), or legitimate interests (site security and aggregate analytics).

5. Third-party services

The site may use the following processors. Each has its own privacy policy:

Form handling: Formspree or an equivalent provider, to deliver contact form submissions.
Scheduling: Cal.com or Calendly, if you book a call.
Analytics: Google Analytics, if enabled.
Advertising: Google AdSense, if enabled.
Hosting: Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, or an equivalent static host.

6. Advertising and cookies (Google AdSense)

If advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.

Users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland may be shown a consent prompt before non-essential cookies are set, where required.

7. Data retention

Contact enquiries are kept for as long as needed to respond and maintain a business record, generally up to 24 months. Aggregate analytics data may be retained longer. You may request deletion at any time.

9. Security

The site is served over HTTPS. I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect data, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

10. International transfers

Service providers may process data outside Nepal, including in the United States and the European Union. Where required, transfers rely on appropriate safeguards offered by those providers.

11. Children
