Privacy Notice

l1nx.it is operated by Martin Teller, based in Brussels, Belgium. This notice explains how this website handles personal data. In short: I use Google Analytics 4 to measure visits, but only if you accept it in the cookie banner. If you refuse, or never answer, nothing is sent to Google and no analytics cookie is set.

The /start page

The /start page is an intake flow that runs entirely in your browser. Right now it does not send, store, or transmit anything you enter — there is no server, database, or email handoff behind it. Whatever you type on /start stays on your device. If a working submission is added later, this notice will be updated to describe exactly what is collected and why before any data is gathered.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

Only with your consent. The Google Analytics script is not loaded until you click Accept. Before that, the site makes no request to Google. If you refuse after accepting, the analytics cookies are deleted at once and the script is no longer loaded from the next page on.

What it collects. Pages viewed, how you arrived (for example a search engine or a link), approximate location at city level, device, browser and screen size, and two events: finishing the /start flow and clicking an email link. It sets first-party cookies named _ga and _ga_* that hold a random identifier. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. Google signals, advertising features and ad personalisation are switched off.

Purpose. To see which pages get read and whether people who find the site through search go on to get in touch. Nothing is used for advertising or sold.

Processor and transfers. Google Ireland Limited processes this data on my behalf. Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the United States under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

Retention. Analytics data is kept for 14 months, then deleted by Google. Your choice is stored in your browser for 6 months, after which the banner asks again.

Legal basis. Your consent (GDPR art. 6(1)(a), and the Belgian rules on cookies).

Withdrawing consent. Use the "Cookie settings" button in the footer of any page and choose Refuse. The analytics cookies are deleted and nothing more is collected.

Email

If you email martin@l1nx.it directly, that message is handled like ordinary correspondence, and you may request its deletion at any time.

manifesto

I don't work from a spec someone hands me. I start with the actual work — how your people do it, where it breaks — because that's what decides what's worth building.

Then I get it running for real: a working application inside your company, with all its rules and its IT department. I get on with those people, respect their security, and don't leave a mess — so they let me in where they'd keep most outsiders out.

LLMs changed how code gets written. They didn't change what makes software good: understanding the problem, and caring how it runs. That's still a craft, and it's the part I've always done.
