Privacy Policy
What we collect
Very little. If you write to us or ask to join the weekly email, we hold your email address and whatever your message contains. Our hosting provider records standard server logs, meaning the pages requested, the time, and the technical details every browser sends. We do not run analytics trackers and we do not build profiles of readers.
How we use it
Your email address is used to send the writing you asked for and to answer you. Server logs are used to keep the site running and to understand, in aggregate, which pieces are read. That is the complete list. We do not use what we hold to sell you anything, and we do not use it to follow you around the internet.
Cookies
The site sets at most one first party cookie, which records how you arrived so that pages load correctly for your visit. There are no third party advertising cookies, no tracking pixels and no fingerprinting. Blocking the cookie costs you nothing except a small amount of our accuracy about how people find the site.
Sharing
We share data in two situations. If you follow the partner link in the footer, the partner receives the fact of that referral, as any clicked link reveals. And our hosting and email providers process data on our behalf under contract, solely to deliver their service. Beyond that, nobody: we do not sell, rent or trade reader information.
Your choices
You can leave the weekly email at any time by replying with the word stop, or by writing to us. You can ask to see what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, and we will. Blocking cookies in your browser is respected and changes nothing about what you can read.
Retention
Correspondence and subscription records are kept for up to twenty-four months after your last message, then deleted. Server logs are kept by our hosting provider for up to thirteen months, then discarded.
