what data we collect
Email address: If you voluntarily submit your email (e.g., newsletter signup), we store it solely to send you the content you requested. We will never sell, rent, or share your email with third parties.
cookies
This site uses Google Analytics, which sets first-party cookies to measure how the site is used. Third-party services loaded on these sites (Google Fonts, embedded content) may set their own cookies — see the section below.
third-party services
Google Analytics: This site uses Google Analytics (Google LLC) to collect anonymous, aggregated usage data — such as pages viewed, approximate location, and device and browser type — to help us understand and improve the site. Google Analytics sets cookies and may process this data as described in Google's privacy policy. We do not use this data to personally identify you or to serve advertising. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Google Fonts: This site loads web fonts from Google Fonts. Google may collect your IP address and browser information when fonts are requested. See Google's privacy policy.
Embedded content: Articles may include embedded content (videos, images, etc.) from other websites. Embedded content behaves as if you visited that website directly and may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction.
affiliate links
Some links on this site (specifically the Digital Toolkit page) are affiliate links. These are clearly marked with an "affiliate" label. Clicking an affiliate link may set cookies on the third-party site to attribute a referral. We earn a small commission if you make a purchase — at no extra cost to you.
