Privacy policy
Last updated 12 November 2026. This is a personal website run by James (Jimmy) Rose in Utah. If you have a question about your information, email [email protected].
The short version
- I collect what you choose to give me: your name and email to see my full portfolio, plus anything else you add.
- I use it to know who's looking and to follow up about work. I don't sell it, rent it or share it for advertising.
- The site sets only the cookies it needs to work. No ad trackers, no analytics cookies.
- Ask me any time to see, correct or delete what I have about you.
What I collect and why
When you sign in to see the full portfolio or use the chat
Your name, email and what brings you here; and, if you choose, your phone number, your company and what kind of role you're hiring for. I also record the page you signed in from and the time. This comes to me by email so I know who viewed my portfolio and can get back to you. I may contact you about opportunities related to your visit; tell me to stop and I will.
When you book a call
Booking runs on Google Calendar's booking page. Google collects your name, email and the time you pick, then sends us both a calendar invite with a video link. Google's privacy policy covers that page.
When you use the chat
Your questions and the answers are sent to Anthropic, which runs the Claude AI model that answers them. The chat answers only from facts I've written about my work. Please don't put sensitive personal information in the chat.
Automatically
Like any website, the server sees technical details such as your IP address and browser. They're used to deliver the site, prevent abuse (for example, rate limits) and keep it secure. I don't use them to build a profile of you.
Cookies and similar storage
| Name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
jr_access | Remembers that you signed in or unlocked a private page. Signed and HttpOnly, so scripts can't read it. | 30 days |
jr_visitor | Tells the page you're signed in, so it doesn't show you the form again. | 30 days |
jr_admin | Only for site editors: keeps an editor signed in to the editing tools. Signed and HttpOnly. | Until sign-out or expiry |
| Cloudflare Turnstile | The security check on forms, to tell people from bots. It runs only when a form is shown. | Session |
Browser storage (cookieNote and similar) | Remembers that you closed the cookie notice and small display choices. | Until you clear it |
These are all strictly necessary for the site to work as you asked, so there's nothing to opt into. You can block or delete cookies in your browser; if you do, you'll need to sign in again.
Who helps run the site
- Cloudflare: hosting, security and the Turnstile check.
- Anthropic: the AI model behind the chat.
- Google: the booking calendar and video calls.
- Resend: delivering portfolio sign-ins to my email.
They process information only to provide their service to this site. Fonts are hosted on this site, so your browser doesn't contact Google for them; only the booking page loads Google's scheduler. Links to other websites, such as tools I use, follow those sites' own policies.
How long I keep it
I keep sign-in and contact details for as long as they're useful for following up about work, and no longer than two years unless we're in touch. Delete requests are handled within 30 days.
Your choices and rights
You can ask to access, correct or delete your information, or ask me not to contact you, by emailing [email protected]. Depending on where you live (for example California, other US states or the EU and UK), you may have further rights under privacy laws; I'll honor them. I don't sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. Browser "Global Privacy Control" signals are respected; since I don't sell or share data, there's nothing further to switch off.
Children
This site is meant for adults looking to hire or work with me. I don't knowingly collect information from children under 16.
Security
The site uses HTTPS, signed cookies, rate limits and bot checks. No system is perfectly secure, so please don't send me anything highly sensitive through the site.
Images and links
Photos are mine unless credited. The paintings are public-domain works or openly licensed photos from Wikimedia Commons, hosted on this site, so viewing them doesn't contact Wikimedia. Outside links follow those sites' own policies.
Terms
Using the site is also covered by the terms of use.
Changes
If this policy changes, I'll update the date at the top.
