Privacy policy

Last updated: October 2026

This page explains what data kmail.at collects, why, and what you can do about it. It is written to be read by a person, not a lawyer.

Who runs this site

kmail.at is the personal website of Mohammed Kmail (Vienna, Austria). For any privacy question, use the contact page.

What is collected

• Server logs. Like almost every web server, ours records the requested URL, the time, and technical request data (including your IP address and user agent). This is used for security and to keep the site running.
• Analytics. Where enabled, aggregate usage statistics are collected to understand which pages are useful. Analytics storage is only used with your consent.
• Messages you send me. If you use the contact form, the name, email address, subject and message are stored in a local audit log on this site’s own server and emailed to me over authenticated SMTP. The time of submission and your IP address are recorded with it, to keep that log usable against abuse. This data is used only to answer you: it is not shared, not sold, and not added to any list. Send a message any time and it is deleted — including the copy in the mail archive — see “Your rights” below.
• Advertising. This site may display advertising served by Google AdSense. See below.

Advertising and Google

This site is supported by advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info.

Where required by law (including in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland), advertising and analytics cookies are used only after you consent. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. Non-personalised advertising may be shown where consent for personalisation is not given.

In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland that choice is collected by a certified consent-management dialog (Google’s, configured through Privacy & messaging), and the “cookies” link in the footer re-opens that dialog. Elsewhere the site’s own banner collects the choice, with everything non-essential denied until you say otherwise.

Cookies and local storage

We use cookies and browser local storage for the purposes above (security, analytics where consented, advertising, and remembering your consent choice). You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.

Your rights

If you are in the EEA or UK you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to object to processing. Because this site holds no accounts and stores no visitor profiles of its own, most such data sits with the processors named above; use the opt-out links and your browser controls, and contact us if you need help.

The exception is a message you send me: that one is held by this site, on its own server, and deleting it is a request I can act on directly. Write to the same address and say which message — it is deleted, along with the email copy, and you get a confirmation.

Third parties

• Google (advertising and analytics) — Google Privacy Policy
• Our hosting provider (serves the site itself)
