Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 29, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle data and user privacy on this Blog.

What We Collect

1. Essential Site Data

We use cookies and limited data necessary for core functionality such as:

  • Logging in securely
  • Maintaining session state: These essential cookies are always enabled and do not require consent.

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site, including page views and browser/device data. This data is:

  • Anonymized (IP anonymization is enabled)
  • Collected only if you opt in via the cookie consent prompt

No personal or identifiable information is collected through analytics.

3. Transactional Email via Brevo

We use Brevo to send secure login and signup emails. Opens and clicks are tracked anonymously only, meaning we receive aggregate insights but do not associate activity with individuals.

4. Membership & Payments

If you become a paying member:

  • Your payment is processed via Stripe
  • We do not store your credit card or billing details
  • Stripe’s handling of data is governed by their privacy policy

We do not use your membership data for tracking or advertising.

5. No Ghost Tracking

All optional Ghost analytics features are disabled:

  • Newsletter open and click tracking
  • Member referral source tracking
  • Outbound link tagging

When you visit this blog for the first time, you're presented with a cookie consent banner. Only essential cookies are set by default. You may opt in or out of analytics cookies at any time.
