Overview

This is the personal website of Engr. Jose Carlo David Ocampo (referred to below as "JC" or "the site owner"). This Privacy Policy explains what happens — and what does not happen — to information when you visit this site or interact with the AI assistant ("Mian") embedded on it.

Data Collection by the Site Owner

The site owner does not collect, store, or sell any personal data from visitors. There are no analytics trackers, no advertising cookies, no email sign-up lists, and no user accounts on this website.

The only piece of information stored locally on your own device is your light/dark mode preference, which is saved in your browser's localStorage so the site remembers how you like to view it. This preference never leaves your device.

The AI Chatbot ("Mian")

Mian is an AI assistant whose responses are generated by a third-party large language model accessed through an external API. The site owner did not build, train, or develop the underlying AI model — it is a borrowed service.

What Happens to Your Chat Messages

When you send a message to Mian, the message is forwarded through a secure proxy to the third-party AI service so that a reply can be generated. By using the chatbot, you understand and agree that:

• Your messages are transmitted to a third-party AI provider in order to generate a response.
• The third-party provider may process, log, or use your messages according to their own privacy and data-usage policies, which are outside the site owner's control.
• The site owner does not personally save, read, or store your conversations on this website.
• You should treat anything you type into Mian the same way you would treat a public message: assume it could be processed or retained by the AI provider.

Please Do Not Share Sensitive Information

Do not enter sensitive personal information into the chatbot. This includes, but is not limited to: passwords, government identification numbers, financial account details, medical records, private contact information of other people, or any confidential business information.

If you have a private matter to discuss with JC directly, please email him at jcdcocampo@gmail.com instead of sending it through the chatbot.

External Links

This site contains links to third-party websites such as LinkedIn, GitHub, Coursera, IEEE Xplore, and others. The site owner is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. Please review their privacy policies before sharing any information with them.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
