title: "Privacy Policy"
description: "How ReGround collects, uses, and protects your information."

_Last updated: July 2026_

**This is a draft.** It hasn't been reviewed by a lawyer. Review before treating it as final.

This policy explains what information ReGround ("I," "me") collects through
reground.org and its related email courses, and what happens to it.

## What I collect

- **Contact form**: the name, email address, and message you submit.
- **Email courses**: the email address you sign up with, and which step of
  a course you've reached (so the course can be delivered at your pace).
- **Newsletter list**: if you opt in at the end of a course (or by another
  explicit signup), your email address and name, if given.

I don't use third-party analytics, ad trackers, or tracking pixels on this
site. Email delivery, the course system, and the mailing list all run on
infrastructure I operate myself — nothing is handed to a third-party
marketing platform.

## Why I collect it

- To respond to messages sent through the contact form.
- To deliver the email course(s) you sign up for.
- To send periodic updates to people who've explicitly opted in — never
  as a side effect of using the contact form or taking a course.

## What I don't do

- I don't sell or rent your information to anyone.
- I don't share it with third parties except the infrastructure providers
  necessary to run this site and send email (e.g. the hosting provider and
  its network) — none of whom get to use it for their own purposes.

## Your control over it

- **Unsubscribe**: every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link.
  Clicking it removes you from that list immediately.
- **Email courses**: courses are self-paced with no ongoing subscription —
  once you've received the emails, there's nothing further to opt out of
  unless you also joined the newsletter list.
- **Deletion**: email me at [hello@reground.org](mailto:hello@reground.org)
  and I'll delete your information from these systems.

## Security

Your information is stored on infrastructure I control directly, not
handed off to third-party SaaS platforms. That doesn't make it invulnerable
— no system is — but it does mean there's exactly one place your data
lives, and one person accountable for it.

## Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, I'll update the date at the
top of this page.
