Hugs every session. We shook hands when we first met but that is it.... and we practiced a hand hold "comfort" type once but never again (long story there but he put a big no to that)

Hugs is kind of a personal story how it came up but I'd be happy to message you more if you want. I don't wanna get into it too much on here. Thankfully he hasn't taken hugs away, that would be the end of it all for me.

We do hand shakes as is culturally expected here. He explicitly said that he'd think it's unethical to hug, without me ever mentioning it. He also thinks holding hands falls under cheating, so that'd probably also not happen.
