Privacy

What this site keeps, who else sees it, and how to have it removed. There is no account here, no advertising and no data sold.

What you give me

  • Your email address when you join Sunday Signal, held by our own email engine on our own server with the day you joined and the box you used, plus DataFast's visitor id from its cookie when there is one, so your confirm counts once on DataFast against that visit. DataFast never gets the address. The engine sends one confirm email first. Every issue carries a one-click unsubscribe link, and that is the end of it.
  • Your name, email and message when you use the contact form. Those three are mailed to me and kept in the site's database, so a reply does not depend on finding one message in an inbox.
  • The address you write from when you use either form, kept with the form's name and the time it was sent. It is there to hold the limit on how often one visitor may use a form that sends mail — five contact messages or ten signups an hour — so it is never read to identify anyone, and an address is only ever counted against the last hour.

What the site counts

  • DataFast counts visits: which pages are read and where the visits come from. Its script sets its own cookie to recognize a returning visitor.
  • analytics.dividendsolo.com, our own counter on our own server, served from this site's own domain: it counts each page a visitor opens, the site that sent them and the campaign in the link. It sets no cookie and stores no IP address and no browser, and a visit becomes a one-way hash that changes every day, so one day's visits cannot be joined to another's.

Who else sees it

  • Vercel serves the site, and Neon runs the site's database: the contact messages are stored there, and so is the address a cheat sheet was sent to and a signup taken while the engine is down.
  • Resend delivers the mail, from mail.dividendsolo.com for the letter and its confirm email, and resend.dividendsolo.com for the contact and cheat-sheet mail, so a newsletter complaint cannot touch the reputation those depend on.
  • YouTube when a post embeds a video: the player loads from youtube-nocookie.com and starts a cookie only once you press play.

Being removed

Unsubscribe from the letter with the link in any issue and no later one is sent to you. To have a contact message, a subscriber row or anything else deleted, email div.solo@pm.me from the address you wrote to me with, and it goes.
