Get in touch

Four routes, because a speaking invitation and an advisory approach need different things. Each says what is needed and when to expect a reply.

What is this about

Direct and secure channels

Email
Not published, to keep it out of the hands of address harvesters. The form above reaches the same person.
PGP
Public key, with its fingerprint, a way to check it against the mail provider rather than against this site, and the four commands that do the job. Encrypt to it and paste the whole block, header and footer lines included, into the form above. Keep the message under about two thousand words: a field holds twenty thousand characters and an encrypted block is larger than what it encrypts.
Signal
Available on request through the form.

What happens to what you send

Messages are stored in a private database, readable only by Mohd Atasha, and are deleted once dealt with, or automatically after one hundred and eighty days, whichever comes first. Only the fields on the form are kept.

No cookies are set and no analytics are collected. Nothing you type here is sent to any third party: the form posts to this site and the message goes straight into its database.

One thing does leave. So that a message is not missed, an email service is told that an enquiry of this kind arrived, and when. It is not told your name, your address, your organisation, or any part of what you wrote. If the sensitivity of your enquiry makes even that insufficient, use PGP or Signal instead.

Writing here starts a conversation, not an engagement: the site is published for general information, and any work is governed by its own written agreement. The full licence and terms set out both.
