What data is collected
The site may store account email addresses, password hashes, newsletter subscription records, reactions, comments, and limited telemetry related to page views and on-site interactions.
Passwords are stored as hashes, not plain text. Email verification and password reset flows use time-limited tokens.
Why it is collected
Account data exists so readers can log in, comment, and manage private or subscriber-only access if that exists.
Telemetry is used to understand what people read, where they bounce, and which features are worth improving. It is for operating the publication, not for building ad-tech profiles.
Comments and public data
Comments are public. If you post one, the text, timestamp, and a reader label derived from your account may be visible to other readers.
Sharing and retention
The site is not built around selling reader data. Third-party sharing should be limited to infrastructure required to run the product, such as hosting, email delivery, or analytics storage.
Data may be retained as long as needed to operate the site, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, or preserve comment and subscription records.
Contact
If you need account or data help, the current point of contact is the site owner through the public contact path already linked from the site or repository.
