Privacy

Last updated: September 24, 2026

This site, emlynellisaddison.com, is run by Emlyn Ellis Addison ("I"). This page explains what information is collected when you visit and how it's used.

Information collected automatically

When you visit, I use analytics tools to understand how the site is used. These tools collect information such as your approximate location (derived from your IP address), device and browser type, pages viewed, links clicked, referring site, and how you interact with the music player, including which tracks you play and for how many seconds. This data is tied to a randomly generated anonymous ID stored in your browser, not to your name or email.

Information you provide

If you contact me through the contact page or by email, I receive whatever you choose to share, such as your name, email address, and message. I use it only to reply to you and to discuss possible work together.

How I use information

To understand which music and pages are of interest, to improve the site and my catalog, and to respond to inquiries. I don't sell your personal information.

Cookies and similar technologies

The site uses cookies and browser storage to recognize returning visitors and measure usage. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the site will still work, though some analytics may be less accurate.

Third-party services

  • PostHog (product analytics), which processes data on servers in the United States. PostHog privacy policy
  • Google Analytics (site traffic analytics). Google privacy policy
  • Google Fonts, which loads fonts from Google's servers and so receives your IP address when the page loads.
  • Links to YouTube, Bandcamp, and other sites are governed by those sites' own privacy policies.

Retention

Analytics data is kept for up to [retention period, e.g. 24 months]. Emails and messages are kept for as long as needed to handle your inquiry or ongoing correspondence.

Your choices

You can block analytics with your browser's privacy settings or a content blocker. You can also ask me to access or delete any personal information I hold about you, such as messages you've sent, by contacting me.

Changes

I may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last revised.
