Privacy policy

This page explains what darrenmarble.com collects, why, and how to turn it off.

Last updated October 12, 2026

The short version

I use Google Analytics 4 to see how the site is used. It is on by default and you can opt out. Microsoft Clarity heatmaps and session recordings run only if you tap “OK” in the cookie notice. If you use the contact form or sign up for my newsletter, I get what you send. I don’t sell your information.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

Google Analytics 4, a service of Google LLC, tells me which pages people visit, how they arrived, how far they scroll, which sections they view, and which buttons and videos they use. It uses first-party cookies and a random browser identifier. I don’t use it to identify you by name. It is on by default. You can turn it off with “Opt out” (see below). Learn more at how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Heatmaps and session recordings (Microsoft Clarity)

Microsoft Clarity, a service of Microsoft Corporation, records clicks, scrolling and page interactions so I can see heatmaps and replays of how the site is used. It loads only after you tap “OK” in the cookie notice, and never when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal. Form fields are masked. See Microsoft’s privacy statement.

Contact form (Formspree)

When you send the contact form, your name, email, company, topic and message go through Formspree, Inc. to my inbox. I use them only to reply to you, and I keep them only as long as needed for that conversation.

Newsletter (Substack)

If you subscribe to Targeted, your email address is handled by Substack, Inc. under Substack’s privacy policy. Every issue has an unsubscribe link.

Hosting

The site is hosted by Netlify, Inc., which processes standard server logs such as IP address and browser type to deliver and secure the site.

Your choices

• Cookie notice: tap “Opt out” to turn off Google Analytics and Clarity for this browser, or “OK” to allow Clarity. Your choice is remembered on this browser.
• Global Privacy Control: honored automatically. Advertising storage is turned off and Clarity never loads.
• Browser settings or Google’s Analytics opt-out add-on.

Opt out of analytics on this browser

I don’t sell personal information or share it for cross-context advertising. The site is not directed to children under 13.

Changes

If this policy changes, I’ll post the new version here and update the date above.
