Privacy & cookies

You can read this website without accepting analytics.

Who runs this website

This is Ewan McIntosh’s personal website. For privacy questions or requests, email ewan@ewanmcintosh.com.

Optional Google Analytics

If you accept analytics, this website uses Google Analytics 4 to understand visits: which pages people read, how they arrive, and interactions such as scrolling and outbound link clicks. Information can include page URLs, referring websites, browser and device details, approximate location and cookie-based identifiers.

The Google Analytics tag does not load and this website sends no Google Analytics measurements before you accept or when you reject. Google Signals and advertising personalisation signals are disabled in this website’s tag configuration. Analytics is also disabled in the working Preview.

Google processes analytics information on its infrastructure, which may involve international transfers. Read Google’s privacy policy and how Google uses information from partner sites.

Cookies and your preference

Your choice is remembered in this browser’s local storage under ewan-analytics-consent-v1 for 180 days. This preference storage is used to honour your choice, not to track you.

After acceptance, Google Analytics can set first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_FG3FTQNST4. These recognise a browser and distinguish visits. The tag’s analytics cookie lifetime is configured to 180 days and can be renewed on subsequent visits while consent remains valid.

You can use Cookie settings in the footer at any time. Rejecting analytics removes accessible Google Analytics cookies for this site and, if the tag was already loaded, reloads the page to stop it. This stops future collection; it does not automatically delete information already sent to Google. You can also clear this website’s data using your browser’s settings.

When you contact me

If you email me, I receive the address and information you choose to send so that I can respond. Please do not put sensitive personal information in this website’s search box or page URLs.

Hosting and other services

The website is hosted by Replit. Hosting providers may process connection details such as IP addresses and request logs to deliver and secure the website. This analytics choice controls the Google Analytics tag added by this website, not browser features or any separate services operated by the hosting provider.

Links to external websites, including LinkedIn and Instagram, are ordinary links rather than embedded social widgets. Those websites apply their own privacy policies when you visit them.
