Privacy notice · Updated 17.10.2026
What this site keeps about you
Very little. There are no ads, no accounts and no forms. Analytics only run if you allow them.
Who is responsible
Erich Gherbaz, Zurich, Switzerland. For any question or request about your data, write to gherbazerich@gmail.com.
On every visit
The site is hosted by Netlify, which processes your IP address and the details of each request to deliver the pages and keep the service secure. Fonts, images and code all come from this site; nothing loads from Google, ad networks or social media.
What your browser remembers
Choices you make while browsing (sound on or off, reading depth, story or article view, whether the opening has played) stay in your browser's session storage and never leave your device. Your analytics choice is kept in local storage for a year, so you aren't asked on every visit.
Analytics, only if you allow them
With your permission, Microsoft Clarity records how the pages are used: clicks, scrolling, mouse movement, your device and browser, your approximate location, and replays of visits. I use it to see where the portfolio confuses people. Clarity sets two cookies, _clck and _clsk. Microsoft processes this data as described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Without your permission, Clarity is never loaded.
Off: you haven't chosen yet, so nothing is recorded.
Your rights
Under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection and, if you are in the EU, the GDPR, you can ask what I hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, and withdraw your consent at any time. Write to the address above. You can also complain to the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner or to your local data protection authority.
