Privacy Policy
Last updated 9 November 2026
1.Scope
This policy covers jeromebadour.com: its pages, Ask, the message form and its status links, and the proposal pages under /for/.
The site is run by Jerome Badour, an individual, who decides what is collected and why. Contact: privacy@jeromebadour.com.
Apps shown on this site, such as W3Arena and Distill, run on their own sites and have their own privacy policies. This policy does not cover them.
It sits alongside the Terms of Use. Where this policy describes your data and the terms describe the use of the site, both apply.
2.What I keep
Questions on Ask: the question you type and the answer it gets.
Messages: your name, your email address, what you need, and the options you picked (what it is built with, how soon).
Status links: a long random link tied to your message, and the message's status (received, read, replied) with its times.
Limits: an anonymous cookie and your IP address, used only to count how many questions and messages are sent.
Visits: the web server's own log: the page asked for, the time and the site you came from. Your IP address is not kept in it.
There are no accounts on this site, so no passwords and no profiles.
3.What you type into Ask
To write an answer, your question is sent to Anthropic's Claude API, which processes it for this site. How long Anthropic keeps API inputs and outputs is set out in its own data retention policy for the API.
Answers are written only from this site's own pages. Ask does not look anything up about you.
Do not type anything private or confidential into Ask, such as another person's details or documents you have no right to share.
4.Why I keep it
To answer your question, read your message, reply to it, and show you its status.
To stop abuse: the limits keep Ask and the message form from being flooded.
To see which pages are read and where visitors come from, counted from the server's log.
5.Who else sees it
Anthropic sees questions typed into Ask, to write the answers.
Resend sends the emails about your message, so it sees your email address and what those emails say.
No one else. Nothing is sold or passed on. There are no ads, no analytics company and no tracking on this site.
6.Where it is held
On my own server, in the site's database and the web server's log.
Questions also pass through Anthropic, and message emails through Resend, as described above.
7.How long it is kept
Questions on Ask: 30 days, then deleted.
Messages: 12 months, then deleted.
Status links: open for 90 days, then they show that the message is closed.
Limits: a day at most.
Visits: 30 days, then deleted.
8.Copy and deletion
You can ask for a copy of anything you sent, or for it to be deleted, at any time by writing to privacy@jeromebadour.com.
Every request is answered within 30 days.
10.Changes and contact
When this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it.
