My Core Principles
- Collect Almost Nothing: I never sign up for services with my real details unless absolutely necessary.
- Encrypt End-to-End: If it’s private, it’s encrypted—no exceptions.
- Zero-Trust by Default: I assume every network, device, or server could be compromised.
- Rotate & Replace: Passwords, keys, and tokens are rotated regularly.
- Ephemeral Footprints: Logs and temporary files auto-purge after six months.
Tools I Rely On
- VPN (ZoogVPN): I always connect through a decentralized VPN when I’m on public or home networks.
- Tor Browser: For any browser activity I don’t want traced back to me.
- Hardware 2FA (YubiKey): Every critical account is locked behind a hardware key.
- Password Manager (Bitwarden): All passwords are random, unique, and vaulted in an encrypted container.
- Local Firewall & Router: Network segments isolated; only whitelisted devices get Internet access.
My Data Practices
What I Store
- Minimal Contact Email: Used only for newsletters and encrypted support requests.
- Session Logs: Stored for six months, then auto-anonymized.
- Cookies: Only first-party, for theme and layout preferences.
How It’s Protected
- At-Rest Encryption: All storage is AES-256 encrypted on world-wide servers I control. XA Net Services
- Access Control: MFA + hardware tokens required for any admin or database access.
- Regular Audits: I review logs quarterly and rotate encryption keys annually.
Data Retention & Deletion
- Contact messages are purged on request or after two years.
- Logs older than six months are anonymized.
- No third-party analytics; you can clear cookies any time in your browser.
