Privacy Policy

TL;DR

  • I don’t collect your data.
  • I use Webflow to power this site, ConvertKit for my newsletter, and Google Analytics (with IP anonymization enabled) for analytics.

Data Collected

  • I collect two types of data. Analytics and emails (the later if you choose to subscribe to my email newsletter).
  • Webflow powers this website. No third-party plugins or services are installed except for ConvertKit and Google Analytics.
  • Below you will find a link to each privacy policy:

    Google Analytics

Analytics

  • I use Google Analytics, with IP anonymization enabled to mask IP addresses. You can read more about that here. If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics data collection, you can do so here.
  • Google states that IP anonymization is unnecessary for Google Analytics 4 since “IP addresses are not logged or stored.” However, the anonymization option will remain enabled on my end.

Emails

  • If you choose to subscribe (I'd love to have you), your email is stored inside my ConvertKit account. This is the service I use for generating and sending email newsletters.
  • You can read ConvertKit's Privacy Policy here. ConvertKit is in compliance with the EU's new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
  • If you wish to unsubscribe at any time, it's one-click at the bottom of every email.
  • Your email will be deleted instantly from ConvertKit as well as from my offline backup during the next monthly backup. A new backup overwrites all previous copies. Old data backups are securely erased.

Email backup process

  • I never store your emails in plain text files like Facebook.
  • I export the emails onto my Mac every month adhering to ConvertKit's backup recommendation. When the file reaches my Downloads folder, Hazel moves it into a local storage drive (outside of iCloud and any other automatic/cloud backup services). I then encrypt them using 256-bit AES encryption with a password generated by a cryptographic hash.

Additional details

  • If you open your ad blocker (uBlock Origin pictured) on my website, it should look identical to mine.
  • Everything listed in the above image is explained throughout this policy, aside from: 'mindmacros.ck.page.' This is a domain for my ConvertKit email newsletter.
  • There are no Facebook Pixels or other advertisement services installed on this site. You can verify this in your browser's admin console.
