Privacy Policy
What this site collects, why, and your rights.
Last updated: 17 October 2026
What this site collects
Email and first name. When you subscribe to the newsletter from any single post on this site, I collect the email address and first name you enter. Both fields are required.
Form submissions. When you reach out through the Work With Me page, I collect the first name, email, organisation, and the message you write.
Anonymised analytics. This site uses Google Analytics via Google Site Kit and Analytify. These tools record pages visited, country, referring site, and device type. IP addresses are anonymised before storage. No cookies are set that identify you personally.
No tracking cookies. The site does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site trackers. Only standard WordPress session cookies, used for site function.
Why I collect it
Subscribers: to send you new work by email. Nothing else. No sequences, no sales.
Work With Me submissions: to reply to you.
Analytics: to understand what people read and how they arrive, in aggregate.
Where your data lives
Subscriber lists and form submissions are stored in this site’s WordPress database on my web host.
Confirmation and newsletter emails are sent through Brevo (brevo.com) using their SMTP service. Brevo’s privacy policy is at brevo.com/legal/privacypolicy.
Analytics data is held in Google’s Analytics service, per Google’s privacy terms (policies.google.com/privacy).
How long I keep it
Subscribers: until you unsubscribe. Every email I send carries an unsubscribe link in its footer. Click it and you are removed immediately.
Form submissions: kept while there is an open conversation, then archived in my inbox.
Analytics: anonymised and retained per Google Analytics’ default policies.
Your rights
