I take care with your data. Below you can read, briefly and clearly, what happens when you visit this website or get in touch.

Contact form

When you fill in the contact form, I receive your name, email address and whatever else you enter (organisation, phone, date, number of attendees and your message). I only use this to reply to you and to arrange a possible talk. Your message arrives in my mailbox and is not shared with others or used for marketing. I keep it as long as needed for our contact and my records.

No tracking

This website uses no tracking cookies, no ads and no third-party visitor statistics. Fonts and images are hosted on this website itself.

Videos from YouTube and Instagram

Videos from YouTube and Instagram only load once you click play yourself. From that moment the privacy rules of YouTube (Google) or Instagram (Meta) apply, and they may set cookies. YouTube videos load via youtube-nocookie.com, the privacy-friendly version.

Column and links

The list of my latest columns comes from Substack, and its images load directly from Substack. When you click a column, a book or a social media button, you go to that other website and its rules apply.
