Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 4, 2026

This privacy policy explains how jurgisrokis.com (“this site”, “I”, “me”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit. I take your privacy seriously and only collect what is necessary.


Who I Am

This website is operated by Jurgis Rokis, based in Riga, Latvia (EU).
Contact: jurgis@jurgisrokis.com


What Data I Collect and Why

1. Analytics (Google Analytics)

When you visit this site, Google Analytics automatically collects anonymised data such as your approximate location, device type, pages visited, and time spent. This helps me understand which content is useful.

  • Legal basis: Legitimate interest / consent via cookie banner
  • IP anonymisation is enabled — your full IP address is never stored
  • Data processor: Google LLC (GDPR-compliant under EU Standard Contractual Clauses)

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.

2. Contact Form

If you send me a message via the contact form, I collect your name and email address to reply to your enquiry. I do not add you to any mailing list or share your details with third parties.

  • Legal basis: Your consent (you submit the form voluntarily)
  • Data is stored: In my WordPress dashboard and email inbox only
  • Retention: I delete contact messages when no longer needed

3. Cookies

This site uses cookies — small text files stored in your browser. These include:

  • Functional cookies (WordPress, session cookies) — necessary for the site to work
  • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) — only loaded after your consent
  • Affiliate tracking cookies — set by third-party affiliate programs when you click a link (see below)

You can control cookies in your browser settings or via the cookie consent banner when you first visit.


Some links on this site are affiliate links. This means if you click a link and make a purchase, I may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you.

Affiliate programs I currently participate in may include Wix, Shopify, Hostinger, Kadence, and others. When you click an affiliate link, the third-party company may set their own tracking cookies. I do not control those cookies or have access to any personal data they collect. Please review the privacy policy of each company before purchasing.
