Privacy & cookies

Updated 2026-09-14

This is Zaid Ahmad’s professional website. You can read the site without signing in, submitting a form, or enabling optional analytics.

Your choice

The site stores your analytics preference in your browser’s local storage under zaid-privacy-v1 for up to 180 days. This is used only to remember your choice. You can accept or reject optional analytics using the banner, and change your choice through “Cookie preferences” in the footer.

Optional analytics

When enabled for this site, Vercel Web Analytics loads only after you choose “Allow analytics.” Rejecting it does not affect access to any content. Browser Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track signals also keep optional analytics off.

The integration measures page visits rather than recording sessions or tracking advertising activity. It removes query strings and URL fragments from page events and does not send the content of emails or LinkedIn messages. Analytics is restricted to known public pages. Withdrawing consent stops further events and reloads the page to remove the analytics script.

Optional analytics are not currently configured on this build. Allowing analytics saves your preference, but no analytics script is loaded. See Vercel’s analytics privacy information (opens in a new tab) for details about the provider.

Hosting and external services

The site is prepared for hosting on Vercel. Hosting providers may process technical request information, including IP addresses and security logs, to deliver and protect the site. Fonts and images are served locally by this site.

Email links open your email application. LinkedIn and publication links take you to external services with their own privacy policies. The website does not receive or store your message when you follow those links.
