Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 12th November 2025

Hey there! I'm Naveen, and this is my personal website where I share my work, projects, and thoughts. I take your privacy seriously, so here's a straightforward explanation of what data gets collected when you visit and what happens with it.

What information I collect when you browse my site:

Google Analytics collects anonymous data about your visit - things like which pages you view, how long you stay, your general location (city/country level), and device type. This helps me understand how people use the site.

Your browser automatically sends technical information like your IP address, browser type, and operating system.

When you use Digital Naveen (the AI chat):

Your chat messages are sent to OpenAI's API to generate responses. OpenAI processes these according to their own privacy policy.

I do save your conversation history. Here's why: you're essentially talking to a digital version of me, and I want to know what questions people are asking and what conversations they're having with my digital self. It helps me understand what people are curious about and improve how Digital Naveen represents me.

If you share contact information (email, phone, social media handles, etc.) during the chat, I save that too so I can reach out to you if needed.

Cookies

How I Use Your Information

I use the collected data to:

Understand which content resonates with visitors (via Analytics)

Improve the website experience and how Digital Naveen responds

Review conversations people have with my digital self to see what topics interest visitors

Respond to you directly if you've shared your contact information in the chat
