Privacy Policy
We collect as little as possible. Here's exactly what that means.
What we collect
We collect: email addresses when voluntarily provided (for lead magnet delivery or email updates); anonymized, aggregate website analytics (pages visited, device type — no personally identifiable information); purchase information when you buy a digital product (processed by Gumroad — we do not store payment card data).
What we do not collect
We do not collect: your name (unless you provide it voluntarily); financial data, account numbers, or transaction details; location data beyond country/region; browsing history outside this site; health or addiction-related data.
Why we collect it
Email addresses: to deliver the resource you requested and, if you opt in, to send occasional updates. You can unsubscribe at any time via the one-click link in any email.
Analytics: to understand which content is most useful and to improve the site. No personally identifiable data is included.
Purchase data: to process and deliver digital product orders, handled by Gumroad.
Third parties
We use: Gumroad for digital product delivery (their privacy policy applies to purchases); an email service provider (MailerLite or ConvertKit) for email delivery; Fathom Analytics or Plausible for privacy-respecting analytics (no cookies, no personal data).
We do not sell data to any third party. We do not share data with gambling operators, advertisers, or data brokers under any circumstances.
Data retention
Email addresses are retained while your subscription is active. You can unsubscribe and request deletion at any time. Analytics data is retained in aggregate, anonymized form indefinitely. Purchase records are retained as required for tax and accounting purposes.
Your rights
You can request a copy of any personal data we hold about you, request deletion of your personal data, or ask questions about our data practices by contacting us via the About page. Requests are fulfilled within 30 days.
Cookies
This site does not use tracking cookies. Analytics are cookie-free (Fathom/Plausible). Functional cookies may be set by third-party tools (Gumroad checkout). No advertising cookies are used.
Changes
This policy may be updated as the site evolves. Material changes will be noted on this page with a "Last updated" date.
