Last Updated: September 7, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Jonathan Martin PH (“we,” “us,” and “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at jonathanmartin.com.ph. This policy is designed to provide you with clear and transparent information about the technologies we use and your choices regarding them.
1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
First-party cookies are cookies set by the website you are visiting.
Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, typically for advertising, analytics, or embedded content.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our website to operate, which we refer to as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our online properties. Third parties serve cookies through our website for analytics, performance, and functionality.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our website functions.
Infrastructure: We utilize services like Cloudflare to manage site performance and security, which may place necessary cookies to ensure the stability of your session.
Performance and Functionality Cookies
These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality (like videos or personalized features) may become unavailable.
Embedded Media: We may embed content from YouTube or Spotify. These services may set cookies to track usage or remember your preferences.
Analytics and Customization Cookies
These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our website for you.
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics with IP anonymization enabled to analyze site traffic. This helps us understand user behavior without personally identifying individual visitors.
ConvertKit: We use tracking pixels in our emails and on our site to measure the effectiveness of our communication and ensure we are delivering relevant content to our subscribers.
Security and Monitoring Cookies
To maintain our standard of technical reliability, we use monitoring tools to detect errors and performance bottlenecks.
Sentry: This tool helps us identify and fix technical issues in real-time. It may use cookies to understand the context of a site error to improve your future experience.
4. How Can I Control Cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager (if applicable) or through your web browser settings.

5. Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other tracking technologies like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that allow us to recognize when someone has visited our website or opened an email that we have sent them. This allows us to monitor the traffic patterns of users and measure the success of our digital strategy.
6. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

Why this version makes you “Hirable”:
Technical Literacy: By mentioning Cloudflare, Sentry, and IP Anonymization, you prove you understand the full stack of a modern website.
Global Compliance: This structure follows the transparency requirements of the GDPR, which is mandatory for any European company looking to hire a remote partner.
Professionalism: It uses your custom domain email and a formal tone, separating your “professional self” from your personal projects.
