Privacy
This site collects as little as it can. No ads, no analytics, no tracking. The only personal details it handles are the ones you type into the contact form.
Who’s responsible
brigs.work is the personal site of Brigs Hernandez, a designer and developer in Manila, Philippines. I decide what happens to your details here, and you can reach me at brigs.work@gmail.com.
What I collect, and why
- When you write to me. Your name, your email and your message. I use them only to reply to you and to keep track of our conversation. The form sends them to my inbox and sends you one short confirmation. Nothing is added to a mailing list.
- When you load a page. The host, Vercel, keeps standard server logs (your IP address, browser, the page and the time) to run the site and keep it safe. I don’t use them to identify you.
- To stop spam. The form briefly remembers your IP address in memory to limit how many messages can be sent in ten minutes. It isn’t saved.
- On your own device. If you turn the site’s sounds off, that choice is saved in your browser. See Cookies.
Who else handles it
- Vercel hosts the site and runs the contact form (United States).
- Resend delivers the form’s emails (United States).
- Google runs the inbox your message lands in (Gmail).
- Spotify only if you press play on the player on the home page. Until then, nothing is loaded from Spotify. Once you do, Spotify’s own privacy policy applies to what it collects.
Some of these companies are outside the Philippines, so your details may be handled abroad. Each is bound to protect them. I never sell or share your details for marketing.
How long I keep it
Messages stay in my inbox for as long as we’re talking, and up to two years after, in case you write again. Ask me and I’ll delete them sooner. Server logs are kept by Vercel for a short period under its own rules.
Your rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, and the GDPR if you’re in Europe, you can ask to see what I hold about you, correct it, delete it, or object to how it’s used. Email brigs.work@gmail.com and I’ll reply within 30 days. If you’re not happy with my answer, you can complain to the National Privacy Commission (privacy.gov.ph) or your local data protection authority.
Children
This site isn’t meant for children under 18, and I don’t knowingly collect their details.
Changes
If this changes, the date at the top changes with it. Anything that affects you more than a little will be said plainly here.
