Privacy policy

This page explains what ajaykumar.ca collects when you visit, why it is collected, and what happens to it afterward. The site is run by me, Ajay Kumar, AI & Automation Expert from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

If anything here is unclear, or you want to know what I hold about you, email me at ajay@diligentic.com.

Who runs this site

ajaykumar.ca is my personal site. It exists to let you read about the work I do and to book a short call with me. There is no account to create, no newsletter, no comments, and no contact form.

Analytics

The site uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages get read. It records the pages you view, an approximate location worked out from your IP address, your device and browser type, and the site or link that referred you. Google Analytics does not log or store IP addresses; it uses your IP address only briefly to estimate location and then discards it.

I use this only to understand which parts of the site are working. Google processes the data on my behalf and also under its own terms, published at policies.google.com/privacy. To opt out of Google Analytics on every site you visit, Google offers a browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

To load analytics, the site includes one script from Google's tag manager domain, googletagmanager.com.

Campaign tags in links

Some links that point to this site carry tags on the end of the address, for example ?utm_source=linkedin. When you arrive on a tagged link, the site reads those tags from the address in your browser and adds them to the booking link, so that if you go on to book a call I can tell which email, post, or card brought you here.

The tags are read from the address and passed straight through to Cal.com. The site does not save them on your device, and if you arrive on a plain link there is nothing to read.

Booking a call

The "Book a call" button sends you to Cal.com, a separate scheduling service. Nothing is booked on this site itself. When you choose a time on Cal.com you provide your name, your email address, your time zone, and anything you type into its form. That information goes to Cal.com and to me, so that I can prepare for and attend the call.

Cal.com handles that data under its own privacy policy, published at cal.com/privacy. The campaign tags described above are appended to the Cal.com link so I can see where a booking originated.

Where data is processed

Google and Cal.com are United States companies. The data described in the two sections above is processed by them on servers outside Canada, under the laws of the countries in which they operate.

What this site does not do

The site does not sell or rent your information, and does not share it except as described above. It runs no advertising, no ad trackers, no social media pixels, no chat widget, and no session or scroll recording. I do not attempt to identify you as an individual from the analytics or build a profile of you.

Cookies and browser storage

The only cookies set are the Google Analytics cookies described above. Apart from those, the site does not store anything in your browser, and it uses no local storage.

There is no cookie banner. By continuing to use the site you accept the analytics cookies, and you can withdraw that at any time by blocking or deleting them in your browser settings, or by using the Google opt-out add-on. Every part of the site still works without them.

How long information is kept

Google Analytics is set to delete user level and event level data after 14 months. Anything you send me by email, or through a Cal.com booking, I keep for as long as I need it to follow up with you and for my own records, and then I delete it.

Your choices

You can browse the site with analytics cookies blocked. You can email me at ajay@diligentic.com to ask what information I hold about you, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted.

Children

The site is meant for business owners and is not directed at children.

Changes to this policy

If I change what the site collects or how it is used, I update this page and change the date at the top in the same update. Material changes are called out here.
