privacy, in plain words
the short version: we collect your email address when you give it to us, we use it to send you the things you asked for, and that's the whole business model of this page.
what we collect
your email address (when you sign up for the weekly entry or download a cheatsheet) and basic, privacy-friendly visit statistics — page views, not personal profiles. no advertising trackers, no selling data, no creepy stuff.
analytics & the one cookie question
our own visit counter is cookieless and anonymous (a daily-rotating hash — we couldn't follow you across days if we wanted to, and we don't want to). separately, we ask first-time visitors whether we may use google analytics to see where plant people find us. say no and it never loads — no cookies, no data to google, and the site works exactly the same. said yes and changed your mind? clearing this site's data in your browser resets the choice.
what we do with it
send you the newsletter and/or the download you requested. every email has an unsubscribe link that works on the first click. unsubscribing deletes you from the list — actually deletes, not “suppresses”.
questions, corrections, deletions
email hello@leafjournal.app and a human (the plant killer himself) will sort it out.
this page will grow a proper legal version before the newsletter tooling goes live — the promises above won't change, only the formatting will get worse.
