Your information, explained.

What we collect

• Accounts: your name, email, a password hash, session records, and course progress. Passwords are hashed; the application does not store the password you type as plain text.
• Newsletter: your email, optional name, signup source, consent, and subscription status.
• Purchases: payment-provider references, purchase status, amount, currency, and account association. When payments are enabled, card details are entered on Stripe’s hosted checkout, not stored by this application.
• Support: the name, email, topic, and message you submit through our contact form.
• Security: request information used to protect the application, including rate-limit records. Hosting providers may process request logs and network information.

Why we use it

We use account and purchase information to provide access to the course, maintain progress, handle support and payment issues, and protect the service. We use newsletter information to send the field notes and course updates you explicitly request. Creating an account or buying a course does not automatically subscribe you to marketing.

Newsletter status and choice

The site currently collects opt-in subscriptions. Email delivery starts only after an email service is connected. You can unsubscribe at any time. Unsubscribing from marketing does not delete your account or order records.

Service providers

The site and its database run on Cloudflare. Stripe processes payments when checkout is enabled. These services process information required to provide hosting, security, and payment functionality under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not sell the subscriber list. If a newsletter email provider is added, this page will be updated to identify it before email delivery begins.

Cookies and local information

A session cookie keeps signed-in customers authenticated. It is required for account functionality. This site does not intentionally load advertising pixels or third-party behavioral analytics. The owner workbench access token stays in page memory and is not saved to browser storage.

Retention and your requests

We keep account, progress, purchase, consent, and support records while needed to provide the service, address requests, prevent abuse, and meet applicable recordkeeping obligations. We keep a subscription status record to honor unsubscribe requests. For access, correction, deletion, or other privacy requests, use the contact form and select “My data or privacy.” We may need to verify that the request concerns your information before acting.

Audience and international access

This service is intended for adults. Please do not create an account if you are under 18. Information may be processed in countries where our hosting and payment providers operate. Local data rights may apply to you.

Updates and contact

We will update this page when the service or its data practices change. The date above identifies this version. Questions or concerns can be submitted through contact & support.
