Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 15, 2026

This website is the personal professional site of Alex Gruzdev (Alexander Gruzdev), Los Angeles, California. This policy explains what information the site collects and how it is used.

What We Collect

  • Messages you send. When you use the contact form, we receive your name, email address, and message. When you submit a recommendation, we also receive your title, company, LinkedIn profile link, and the text of your recommendation.
  • Technical data. Like every website, the server records your IP address and browser details in standard logs to keep the site secure and working.
  • Cookies. We use only two small cookies: one remembers your language (English or Russian), and one keeps a form secure while you fill it in. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

How We Use It

  • To reply to your message.
  • To verify and, with your consent, publish recommendations. Your email address is never published.
  • To show the site in your language. Your IP address is checked against a local country database (IP geolocation by DB-IP) only to choose English or Russian on your first visit. No outside service receives it.

What We Never Do

We do not sell, rent, or share your information with third parties, and we do not send newsletters you did not ask for.

Embedded Videos

Videos are loaded from YouTube only after you press play, using YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode.

Your Choices

You can ask us to see, correct, or delete any information you sent, or to remove a published recommendation, by writing to us through our contact form.
