Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 16, 2026

This website, oboyle.nyc, is a personal portfolio and blog operated by Patrick O'Boyle. This page describes how information may be collected, used, and protected when you visit the site.

Information Collected

This site is primarily a static website hosted via GitHub Pages. In general, I do not directly collect personal information through the site unless you choose to contact me.

Information that may be processed includes:

  • Basic technical information automatically provided by your browser, such as IP address, browser type, and device information.
  • Referral data, such as the page or site that led you here.
  • Any information you voluntarily provide when contacting me by email.

How Information Is Used

Any information received may be used to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the website.
  • Respond to direct inquiries or messages you send.
  • Understand basic site performance, availability, and usage patterns.

Cookies and Analytics

At this time, I do not intentionally use custom cookies, advertising trackers, or a dedicated analytics platform on this site. However, GitHub Pages and other third-party services involved in delivering the site may process standard web request data as part of normal hosting and network operations.

Third-Party Links

This site includes links to third-party services such as GitHub, Ko-fi, and email providers. If you follow those links or use those services, their privacy policies and practices will apply instead of this one.

Data Retention

If you contact me directly, I may retain your message and contact information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain records of correspondence, or handle follow-up communication.

Data Security

Reasonable efforts are made to keep this site and related communications secure, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. You should avoid sending sensitive personal information unless necessary.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed to children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Policy Changes

This privacy policy may be updated from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
