## Who runs this site

Visible Origin is operated by John Patzi, an independent consultant based in Chile. Contact: john@visibleorigin.com

## What this site collects

**When you email me.** Whatever you choose to put in your message. There is no contact form on this site — the address above is the only way to reach me, so your message goes straight to my mailbox and is never stored in this site's database. I use it to answer you and to keep a record of the conversation. Nothing else.

**Server logs.** Like every web server, this one records the IP address, the page requested, the time, and the browser string of each request. These logs are kept for a limited period and used to diagnose problems and detect attacks.

**Cloudflare.** This site sits behind Cloudflare, which processes requests before they reach my server and may set a functional cookie for security purposes. See the Cookie Policy.

## What this site does not do

There is no analytics platform on this site, no advertising, no tracking pixels and no third-party marketing scripts. Nothing you do here is shared with an advertising network. If that changes, this page and the Cookie Policy will be updated before the change goes live.

## How long data is kept

Emails are kept while the conversation is useful and deleted on request. Server logs rotate automatically after a short period.

## Your rights

You can ask me what data I hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Write to john@visibleorigin.com and I will answer.

## Audit work on client sites

Audits are performed with public HTTP requests only. No access to a client's systems is used or required for an audit. When implementation work is agreed, credentials are handled separately, used only for that engagement, and removed when it ends.
