THE BORING BITS, MADE HUMAN

Your privacy matters.

Last updated September 29, 2026

What we collect

We store the account details you provide, your stories, comments, bookmarks, follows, preferences, and newsletter requests. Story analytics use a daily visitor hash rather than storing a raw IP address in the article-view table.

How we use it

We use this information to operate your account, display the content you choose to publish, improve the reading experience, and deliver requested messages. Newsletter emails require confirmation and include an unsubscribe link.

Services and cookies

Authentication uses necessary session cookies. If enabled, Google provides sign-in, Azure Communication Services delivers email, and object storage hosts uploaded images. These services receive the information needed to perform those functions.

Your choices

You can edit your profile and preferences in Settings, keep your saved collection private, unsubscribe from newsletters, and contact us to request access or deletion of your account data. Published content may be retained for moderation and legal obligations.

Before public launch

This is the platform’s initial privacy notice. The operator must add its legal identity, contact details, applicable retention periods, and jurisdiction-specific disclosures before collecting public users’ data.
