Privacy notice
Last updated: June 2026
José Villaseñor Montfort publishes
montfort.dev as a static site from a Git repository: there
is no application backend, no user accounts, and no forms that send data
to a server of mine. The only personal data the site processes is what
your browser sends when you visit a page, plus what an optional analytics
tool collects when you allow it.
This notice covers https://montfort.dev and its translated
routes (/es/…).
What we collect
When you visit the site and accept analytics in the cookie banner, Google Analytics 4 records:
- Anonymised IP — Google truncates the last octet of
your IP before storing it (
anonymize_ip). - Page views, time on page, broad geography (country/region), device, browser and language.
- Session cookies prefixed
_ga*, which GA uses to group requests into sessions.
What we do not collect:
- Your name, email, account or any credential.
- Form data — there are no forms that submit to a server.
- Personal identifiers from third-party trackers or advertising pixels.
Why we collect it
To understand which essays and notes get read and which are ignored. That signal guides what I write next. We do not use the data for marketing, advertising or sale to third parties.
Your control
- Reject on first visit. If you choose Reject in the banner, no analytics cookie is set and Google Analytics receives no events from your session.
- Change your mind. Reopen the preferences panel with the control below whenever you want.
- Browser controls. Browser settings,
Do Not Trackand extensions like uBlock Origin work independently of our banner.
Legal basis and where the data lives
- Analytics consent is collected under the GDPR «consent» basis (art. 6(1)(a)). Without your explicit opt-in, Google Analytics stays in default-denied mode via Google Consent Mode v2.
- Data processed by Google Analytics is stored on Google infrastructure and retained for 14 months (GA4 default).
- The site is served from Firebase Hosting (Google), which logs request metadata at the CDN level (standard web-server access logs).
Changes to this notice
When what we collect or how it is processed changes, we will update this notice and the «Last updated» date at the top of this page.
