Privacy Policy for Raziv.online

Last Updated: November 7, 2025

Welcome to Raziv.online. This policy sets forth the commitment of this personal portfolio website to protect your privacy. Our core philosophy is minimal data collection, strict non-sharing practices, and maximum transparency. By using this website, you acknowledge the terms described herein.

1. Data Collection: Minimal and Intentional

1.1. Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

The only instance where Raziv.online collects PII is through the dedicated Contact Forms embedded within the site. This collection is strictly voluntary and necessary to respond to your specific inquiry.

• Data Collected: When utilizing the Contact Form, we may collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.
• Purpose of Collection: This data is used solely to communicate directly with you regarding your query, request for service, or feedback. We do not use this information for marketing, solicitation, or any purpose beyond the scope of responding to your initial outreach.
• Data Retention: Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to address your communication and maintain a record of our professional exchange, after which they are securely deleted.

1.2. Non-Collection of Tracking Data

Outside of the deliberate input via the Contact Form, Raziv.online maintains a policy of zero passive data collection or tracking.

• No Cookies or Trackers: We do not use first-party or third-party cookies, web beacons, or pixels for tracking user behavior, personalization, or advertising purposes.
• No Complex Analytics: We avoid advanced analytics tools that profile individual visitors. Any operational server logs are aggregated, anonymized, and used solely for site security and troubleshooting.
• No Marketing Lists: We do not maintain any mailing lists or databases for bulk communication based on contact form submissions.

2. Use, Sharing, and Security of Collected Data

Raziv.online is committed to protecting the very minimal data collected via the contact form.

• No Third-Party Sharing: We will never sell, rent, lease, or otherwise distribute your name or email address to third parties for marketing, advertising, or any external purpose.
• Security Measures: We employ reasonable security practices to protect the electronic storage and transmission of contact form data against unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure.

3. Content Ownership, Copyright, and Fair Use Compliance

3.1. Original Template and Custom IP

The initial base template and structural foundation for Raziv.online were provided by Templatemo.com. All subsequent work, customization, code additions, and content are the exclusive intellectual property (IP) of Raziv.

• Custom Work: All bespoke styling, custom code, new sections added (e.g., Timeline, Contact, Inspirations, Blog), and the functionality of the "Tools" section were developed and implemented by Raziv.
• Tools Section Guarantee: Any tools or utilities displayed are either wholly created by Raziv or represent projects in which Raziv was a direct, significant, and active technical participant.

3.2. Third-Party Content (Visual Assets and Logos)

We are dedicated to respecting all third-party intellectual property rights.

• Fair Use of Imagery: Visual assets (movie posters, album art) in the "My Favs" sections are used solely for personal commentary, critique, and showcase purposes. This is strictly non-commercial and is utilized under the legal principles of Fair Use.
• Organizational Logos: Logos displayed in the "Featured On" section are used exclusively to acknowledge and represent past professional affiliations or public recognition. This use is descriptive and does not imply any current endorsement or commercial partnership.
• DMCA/Takedown: Should any copyright owner believe their intellectual property is used beyond the scope of Fair Use, please contact us immediately for prompt and respectful resolution.
