Privacy Policy
No trackers. No pixels. No exceptions.
Privacy isn't our policy. It's our practice.
This page is short on purpose. Here's everything we collect, everything we don't, and why the list is this small.
What We Don't Do
The trackers we refuse to load, and why that's a design decision.
We don't track you across the internet. There are no third-party advertising pixels, no cross-site trackers, and no social media scripts watching what you read. No Google Analytics. No Facebook Pixel. No Pinterest Tag.
We don't sell, rent, or share your data. Ever. There is no "unless" coming in this paragraph.
We don't use your email for anything you didn't ask for. No drip campaigns. No "just checking in" sequences. No newsletter you didn't opt into twice.
What We Do Track
One number, honestly counted: visits, aggregated on our server.
When you submit a form on this site — a discovery inquiry, a project brief, a message — we receive exactly what you typed. Your name if you share it, your email if you share it, your words. That's it.
Framer Analytics (built-in) measures visits without cookies, without persistent identifiers, and GDPR-compliant enough to skip the banner entirely. Unique visitors are counted within a single day — come back tomorrow and you're a stranger again. That's the extent of visitor tracking. Some details, like country and device type, are estimates. We'd rather tell you that than pretend otherwise.
How Long We Retain
Inquiry emails, held for 24 months — then gone.
We keep inquiry records for 24 months after our last contact. After that, they're deleted. We can delete them sooner on request.
That information is transmitted over an encrypted connection and lands in encrypted storage through Proton Mail, which we control. We can't see it without your key.
Hosting Transparency
Our infrastructure, stated plainly: Framer hosting, Swiss email.
This website is built on Framer. That means Framer hosts the pages you're reading, and their systems process the request that delivers them — the same as any website host.
We've configured this site to strip third-party extras wherever the platform allows. Your trust signals should come from what we build, not what we promise. If you ever want to check us — inspect this page's source. We'll wait.
Contact & Rights
Ask us anything about your data. We'll answer.
Questions about this page? Email hello@hermanbrandlab.com. A human reads it.
Requests for earlier deletion of your inquiry record? Include your email address in the subject line, and we'll locate and remove the entry.
