Last updated: January 22, 2026

​

Hey there — thanks for visiting my site. I want you to feel comfortable here, whether you’re checking out lessons, looking for a guitarist, or just exploring what I do. This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, why I collect it, and how you stay in control of your data.

I keep things simple, transparent, and respectful — the same way I try to show up in every musical setting. 

​

By using this site, you agree to the practices described below. 

 

1. Information I Collect 

I only collect information that helps me run the site, stay connected with you, or understand how people use the pages I’ve built. 

 

A. Information You Choose to Share 

If you reach out through a form or contact me directly, you may share: 

• Your name 

• Your email address 

• Any message or details you include 

 

That’s all voluntary — you decide what to send. 

 

B. Information Collected Automatically 

Like most websites, some basic technical info gets collected automatically, such as: 

• Your IP address 

• Browser and device type 

• Pages you visit 

• How you found the site 

• Date and time of your visit 

• General (nonprecise) location 

 

This helps me understand what’s working and what people are looking for. 

 

C. Cookies and Similar Tools 

Cookies help the site function smoothly and help me see how visitors interact with different pages. You can turn cookies off in your browser if you prefer. 

 

2. How I Use Your Information 

Here’s what I actually do with the information I collect: 

• Respond to messages you send 

• Improve the site and fix issues 

• Understand what content people find helpful 

• Keep the site secure 

• Meet legal requirements 

 

I never sell your information. I never share it for advertising. That’s not what I’m about. 

 

3. When Information Gets Shared 

I only share information when it’s necessary to run the site or required by law. 

 

This may include: 

• Service providers (like hosting, analytics, or email tools) 

• Legal authorities, if I’m required to comply with a law or legal process 

• A business transfer, if the site ever changes hands 

No one gets your information for their own marketing. 

 

4. Your Rights (Especially if You Live in California) 

If you’re a California resident, you have specific rights under the CCPA/CPRA. I honor these fully. 

You can: 

• Ask what information I’ve collected about you 

• Ask me to delete your information (unless I legally need to keep something) 

• Ask me to correct inaccurate information 

• Ask for details about how your information is used 

• Opt out of the sale or sharing of your information — even though I don’t do either 

• Expect no discrimination for using any of these rights
