Privacy Policy
Effective September 25, 2026 · Version 1
This policy explains what personal data Weekly Finds collects when you visit this website or subscribe to the newsletter, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
Who we are
Weekly Finds is published by Your Company LLC, 123 Example Street, Suite 100, Springfield, ST 00000, United States (“we”, “us”). We are responsible for the personal data described in this policy. You can reach us at [email protected].
What we collect
- Your email address, when you subscribe.
- Consent records: which form you used, the exact consent wording you agreed to, and when you subscribed and confirmed. We keep these to demonstrate that you asked to receive the newsletter.
- Your preferences, such as topics you choose to tell us about.
- Delivery information about emails we send you, such as whether a message was delivered, bounced or reported as spam.
- Technical data needed to run and protect the website, such as server logs that may include your IP address, kept for a limited time.
We do not collect your date of birth, phone number, precise location or payment details. We do not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels.
Why we use it
- To send you the newsletter you asked for, and service messages such as the confirmation email.
- To honor unsubscribes and keep people who opted out from being added again by mistake.
- To keep the service secure and prevent abuse, such as fake or automated sign-ups.
- To meet our legal obligations and handle requests about your data.
Where the law requires a legal basis, we rely on your consent for the newsletter, and on our legitimate interests for security and record keeping. You can withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing.
Partners and sharing
We do not sell your email address, and we do not share it with partners or advertisers unless you separately opt in to a specific partner's offer. When you do, we tell you who the partner is and what will be shared before you agree. Subscribing to the newsletter alone never counts as permission to share your details.
We use service providers to operate the service — for example our hosting provider, Hetzner Online GmbH (Germany). They process data only on our instructions.
How long we keep it
- Unconfirmed sign-ups are deleted after 30 days.
- Your subscription data is kept while you are subscribed.
- After you unsubscribe or ask for deletion, we keep only a minimal record needed to make sure we don't email you again.
- Server logs are kept for up to 30 days, security logs for up to 90 days.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, to object to or restrict its use, and to withdraw consent. To delete your data, use the request form. For other requests, email [email protected]. We will verify the request is yours and respond within the time the law requires. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
Cookies
This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. If we add cookies that are not strictly necessary in the future, we will ask for your consent first where required.
Security
We use encryption in transit, access controls and regular backups to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to keep your information safe and will notify you where the law requires if a breach affects you.
Children
The newsletter is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. Each version has an effective date shown at the top of this page. If a change materially affects how we use your data, we will tell subscribers by email before it takes effect.
