Privacy
Last updated November 8, 2026
I keep this simple: this is a personal portfolio, and I collect as little as possible. Here is exactly what happens with your data when you visit rafaelmachado.work (opens in a new tab).
What I collect
This site has no accounts, comment sections or forms. I don't ask for your name, email or any personal information. It only sets cookies if you accept them (see Analytics below).
Like any website, the hosting provider (Vercel) automatically receives technical data when you visit, such as IP address, browser, device and the pages requested. This is used to deliver the site and keep it secure, and is handled under Vercel's own privacy policy.
Clicking the email address in the footer copies it to your clipboard. Nothing is sent anywhere. If you write to hi@rafaelmachado.work, I'll use your message and address only to reply to you, and I won't share them.
Analytics
Vercel Web Analytics counts page views, referrers, countries and devices in aggregate. It doesn't use cookies and doesn't follow you across sites or visits.
Microsoft Clarity records anonymized sessions, clicks and scrolling and builds heatmaps, so I can see where the site is confusing. It uses cookies and runs only if you click Accept in the cookie notice. Microsoft processes this data under its own privacy statement.
Your choice is saved in your browser and you can change it at any time.
Third-party links and media
Links to other sites (LinkedIn, Instagram, Dribbble, Behance and others) open in a new tab and are governed by those sites' own policies. Fonts, images and videos are served from this site. The only third-party script is Microsoft Clarity, and only after you accept.
Your rights
Under Brazil's LGPD and, where applicable, the GDPR, you can ask me what data I hold about you, request correction or deletion, and withdraw consent at any time.
