Privacy Policy

A transparent and accurate summary of how this website operates, what data is processed, and your privacy rights.

Effective Date: October 2026
Site Operator: Wasim Khan
Domain: https://pantheism.in

1. Overview & Website Purpose

This Privacy Policy explains how Wasim Khan ("I", "me", or "site owner") operates this personal portfolio website at https://pantheism.in (the "Website"). The Website serves strictly as a personal portfolio showcasing my professional qualifications, research casework, and experience as a Cyber Investigator and Information Security Analyst.

I value individual privacy and believe in minimizing data processing by default. This policy is written based on the genuine technical behavior of the Website.

2. How the Contact Enquiry Form Works (Zero Server Storage)

The Website provides an interactive enquiry composer on the Contact page to help visitors structure messages. Here is how it functions:

  • No Web Server Transmission: The form does not submit form data over the internet to this website, a database, or any third-party form-processing vendor. Submitting the form triggers a client-side JavaScript script that runs entirely within your web browser.
  • Direct Email Client Launch: When you click "Prepare email in your mail client", the browser constructs a standard mailto: link containing the name, email address, enquiry category, and message text you entered, opening your device's default email client. You retain complete control over whether to press send in your email application.
  • Local Clipboard Copy: When you click "Copy full draft to clipboard", your browser utilizes the standard Clipboard API (navigator.clipboard.writeText) to place the text directly onto your local clipboard so you can paste it into any communication tool of your choice. No clipboard data is transmitted to this site.
  • Email Receipt: If you voluntarily deliver an email message to wk5919085@gmail.com, I receive the communication in my email inbox, including your email address and any details you choose to share.

3. Hosting & Technical Infrastructure Logs

The Website is hosted statically using Vercel Inc. (Vercel edge network). When you request pages, images, or media files from the Website, Vercel edge servers process standard web connection metadata inherent to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/HTTPS):

  • Internet Protocol (IP) address.
  • Date, time, and duration of the request.
  • Resource requested (URL path) and HTTP response status code.
  • Browser type, operating system, and user-agent string.
  • Referring webpage URL (HTTP referer header, if sent by your browser).

This technical connection data is processed by Vercel for the legitimate purpose of serving the static content, diagnosing network connectivity issues, maintaining server availability, and defending against malicious cyber activity such as Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. For further details on Vercel's edge data processing, please refer to the Vercel Privacy Policy.

4. External Fonts & Assets

To provide high-legibility typography, the Website connects to Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). When your web browser loads these stylesheets and font files, it makes a direct HTTP request to Google servers, transmitting standard browser headers (such as your IP address and user-agent). Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.

All video animations, audio previews, downloadable resume documents, and project screenshots are self-hosted directly within the Website repository on Vercel; no third-party video hosting iframes or tracking embeds are used.

5. Tracking, Analytics & Cookies

This Website respects visitor privacy by design:

  • No Analytics Trackers: I do not run Google Analytics, Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Hotjar, Clarity, or any third-party behavioral analytics or session recording scripts.
  • No Advertising: There are no advertising networks, retargeting beacons, or marketing tags implemented on the site.
  • No Commercial Data Sharing: I do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade visitor data or email inquiries to commercial data brokers or marketing firms.
  • No Persistent Client Storage: The Website scripts do not store personal profiles, analytics tokens, or tracking IDs in localStorage, sessionStorage, or cookies. (For a full review, see the Cookie Policy).

6. Purpose of Processing & Legal Basis

Any personal information I receive is processed on the following lawful bases:

  • Consent & Communication: When you send an email enquiry, your contact information is processed solely to respond to your specific questions, discuss potential consulting engagements, or coordinate professional collaboration.
  • Legitimate Interests: Basic server logs are processed to maintain operational stability, verify network integrity, and protect against security incidents.

7. Data Retention

  • Website: The Website itself has no database and retains zero personal data from your browsing session.
  • Email Communications: Inquiries sent to wk5919085@gmail.com are retained within my email inbox for as long as necessary to fulfill the request, manage ongoing client projects, or meet standard administrative and professional record-keeping requirements.
  • Server Logs: Connection logs managed by Vercel are automatically cycled according to Vercel's standard security retention schedules.

8. Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Request a copy of any correspondence or personal information I hold regarding you.
  • Request the correction or completion of inaccurate information.
  • Request the deletion of past email correspondence, subject to any legal or contractual record-retention requirements.

To exercise any of these rights, simply email wk5919085@gmail.com with your request.

9. Security Measures

All communication between your web browser and the Website is encrypted in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS / HTTPS). As an Information Security Analyst, I adhere to strong digital security hygiene across my communication accounts and computing devices.
