Effective Date: Whenever the fog rolled in
Welcome traveler. You’ve found yourself in the administrative wing of Anecdotal Omens – a place where even the ghosts sign their waivers in triplicate. This document explains what happens to your data when you wander into our digital cemetery, sign your name to The Harbinger, or otherwise leave footprints in the freshly turned soil of this site.
🕯️The Offerings We Collect
When you subscribe to The Harbinger, we gather only what you willingly place upon the altar – usually a name (if provided) and email address. This allows our crows (powered by MailPoet) to deliver new omens and updates directly to your inbox.
We also use cookies (not the warm, edible kind) to understand how visitors traverse the graveyard – through Google Analytics and Jetpack Site Stats. These tools whisper anonymous information such as:
- Which pages were visited
- How long you lingered among the tombstones, and
- What device or spectral apparatus you used to get here
🕯️How the Magic Works
Your email address lives safely within MailPoet’s crypt (servers), where it is stored solely for sending you newsletters and important updates.
No shady necromancy – we never sell, trade, or rent your information to third parties.
Analytics data is processed by Google and Automattic (the keepers of Jetpack), who may set cookies or track usage to help us improve the haunt.
🕯️Consent & Unsubscribing From the Afterlife
By subscribing, you give your consent for us to send you messages from beyond the veil. You may unsubscribe at any time – each email includes a link to banish us from your inbox (no salt circle required).
🕯️Third-Party Apparitions
We work with:
- MailPoet (for managing subscriptions and sending newsletters)
- Google Analytics (for anonymous traffic insights)
- Jetpack (for general site stats and security)
Each has their own privacy policy for the curious and/or legally cautious:
🕯️Data Retention & Security
We hold onto your information only as long as you remain subscribed, or until the end of days – whichever comes first. Should you unsubscribe, your data is respectfully buried (deleted) from our mailing list.
This site uses SSL encryption, Jetpack security tools, and the power of pure spite to keep your data safe.
🕯️Updates to This Ritual
From time to time, this policy may be updated – like a spirit getting new chains. When that happens, the “Effective Date” will be revised, and you’ll be able to find the latest version right here.
🕯️Contact the Crypt Keeper
If you have questions, concerns, or wish to perform a data exorcism (aka request removal), you can reach out via the Contact Page (Summon Here) or by summoning [email protected].
Thank you so much for reading the fine print. You may now return to your regularly scheduled hauntings.
