Privacy

1.What gets collected

• Your email address — only if you type it into the signup form. The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile (a bot check); Turnstile may process your IP address to tell humans from bots.
• Chat messages — if you use the little chat on the homepage, the messages you send may be logged (capped, and auto-deleted after 90 days) to keep the chat working well.
• Anonymous page stats — cookieless Cloudflare Web Analytics (page views, no cross-site tracking, no ad profiles).

No accounts, no cookies for tracking, no purchased data. Ever.

2.How your email is used & stored

Your address goes into a private mailing list and is used for one thing: sending you the newsletter you asked for — new sets, notes, the occasional offer. It is never sold, rented, or shared beyond the service providers below.

It is stored in Cloudflare KV (signup capture) and in a private, self-hosted contact list. Unsubscribes are stored permanently so you are never re-added by accident.

3.Service providers

• Cloudflare — hosts this site, the signup capture, and the bot check.
• Amazon SES — delivers the emails (they see the address they deliver to, as any mail carrier must).

4.Links in emails

Links in the newsletter may be click-tracked so I can tell what you enjoy and stop emailing people who never open anything (inactive addresses are pruned rather than nagged forever). Delivery failures and complaints are processed automatically to keep the list clean.

5.Leaving is one click

Every email has an unsubscribe link in the footer, plus one-click unsubscribe built into the email headers (RFC 8058 — your mail app shows its own unsubscribe button). Opt-outs take effect immediately and are permanent.

6.Your choices

Want your data exported or deleted entirely — email address, chat logs, everything? Ask, and it happens. Same address for any privacy question:
