Privacy
Last updated: 28 October 2026
Who is responsible
This is the personal website of Abdulkader Ghandoura, Munich, Germany. For any question about your data, write to me at the email address shown on the homepage.
Hosting
The site is hosted on GitHub Pages by GitHub, Inc. (USA). GitHub states that “when a GitHub Pages site is visited, the visitor's IP address is logged and stored for security purposes.” GitHub's privacy statement explains how GitHub handles this data, including its certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
Google Analytics
To see how many people visit and which pages they read, the site uses Google Analytics 4 by Google. It sets two cookies, _ga and _ga_<ID>, which last up to two years, and collects data such as the pages you view, your device and browser type, and your approximate location. For visitors in the EU, Google states that it uses the IP address only to estimate the location and then discards it. Google LLC is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework; see Google's privacy policy. You can block these cookies in your browser settings or install Google's opt-out add-on.
Theme setting
If you choose Light or Dark at the bottom of a page, your browser remembers that choice in its local storage under the name theme. It stays on your device and is never sent anywhere. Choosing System removes it.
If you email me, I use your address and message only to reply to you.
Links to other websites
Links to other websites, such as Google Scholar or LinkedIn, load nothing until you click them. Once you do, that website's own privacy policy applies.
Your rights
Under the GDPR, you have rights over your personal data, such as access and deletion, and you can complain to a data protection authority (in Bavaria, the BayLDA).
