Privacy policy
Last updated: 2026-10-15.
What we collect
- Newsletter signup: your email address, collected only when you subscribe. Used solely to send the Outage Brief newsletter.
- Site analytics: anonymous, aggregated visit statistics (pages viewed, referrers). We use privacy-friendly analytics; we don’t build individual profiles.
- Contact messages: whatever you send us, used only to respond.
We do not collect names, addresses, payment details, or precise location data. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for their marketing.
Cookies
The site uses a minimal set of cookies for basic functionality and anonymous analytics. No advertising trackers.
- You can unsubscribe anytime via the link in every email. Unsubscribing is immediate.
- We never share your email address with sponsors or advertisers.
- Newsletter delivery is handled by our email provider, which processes addresses solely to deliver the emails you signed up for.
Affiliate links
Clicking an affiliate link takes you to a third-party retailer (e.g., a manufacturer’s store or Amazon). Their privacy policies apply from that point — we don’t control them.
Your rights
You can request a copy of the data we hold about you, or ask us to delete it, by replying to any newsletter or using the contact form. We’ll respond promptly.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, we’ll note it here with a new date and mention it in the newsletter.
