Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy applies to codebyjawad.com (the “Site”), a personal portfolio site operated by Muhammad Jawad Iqbal Khan. The Site is a static website used to showcase portfolio work, blog articles, and contact information. It does not operate an online store and does not collect payment information.

By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Information We Collect

The Site is designed to collect as little personal data as possible. In the course of normal operation it may receive:

1. Contact form submissions — when you use the contact form, you provide your name, email address, and the contents of your message so we can respond to you.
2. Newsletter sign-ups — when you subscribe to updates, you provide your email address to receive occasional updates about the Site.
3. Basic technical data — the hosting provider may record standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps) for security and diagnostics.

How We Use Your Information

Information you provide is used only for the purpose you provided it for: responding to your messages, sending updates you requested, or improving the Site. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

Technical log data may be used to monitor the Site for security, diagnose errors, and understand general usage patterns at an aggregate level.

Cookies

The Site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Minimal functional storage may be used to remember basic preferences. Your browser settings can be used to disable cookies at any time.

Third-Party Services and Links

The Site contains links to external services and websites, including WhatsApp chat, GitHub, LinkedIn, and downloadable documents hosted on the Site. When you click an external link or open a WhatsApp conversation, those third parties operate under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.

Data Retention and Security

Messages and email addresses are retained only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry or to provide the updates you requested. Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect data from unauthorized access, loss, or alteration. No system is completely secure; you share information at your own risk.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us through the contact page and we will respond within a reasonable time.

Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Site, contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted on the Site.
