If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

We use a service operated by Google in order to measure the performance of our website. This service, known as Google Analytics, helps us understand factors such as:

  • how frequently various types of content we provide are being accessed
  • the popularity and/or effectiveness of our content
  • various characteristics, anonymously and in the aggregate, about visitors to our website, including demographic information.

Since the data collected for us by Google is anonymized before being reported back to us, we are unable to discover information about any individual visitor(s) which would allow us to identify them personally. Google, however, may have collected more personal information about you based upon your interactions with Google’s products and services, as well as information which Google may have collected about you from other sources, including websites you visit, ads you view and interact with, and other activity. You may view Google’s Privacy Policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Additionally, we use a service operated by RawVoice Inc, to measure downloads of our podcast episodes. This service, known as Blubrry Podcast Stats, helps us understand certain characteristics about the number of times each episode of our podcast is downloaded and/or streamed, and certain anonymous and aggregate information about the individuals who download our episodes. You may view the RawVoice Inc Privacy Policy here: https://create.blubrry.com/resources/about-blubrry/privacy-policy/.

Who we share your data with

We do not sell or otherwise share your data with any third-parties for marketing purposes.

Third-Party Service Providers:

We do use third-party services providers to fulfill requests you make from us, including delivering audio files, email subscriptions, and responses to comments and contact forms you have submitted via the website.

Audio files related to episodes of our podcast are stored on and delivered to your device(s) by Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) via their Cloudfront and Simple Storage Service (“S3”) offerings. You may view the AWS privacy policy at: https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/.

We currently utilize Mailchimp to service any email subscriptions.

You may view the Mailchimp privacy policy for contacts here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/#3._Privacy_for_Contacts

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, fill out a contact form, or subscribe to emails, the data collected and its metadata are retained indefinitely. In the case of comments, this is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. In the case of contact forms and email subscriptions, this is so that we can respond to you, provide the subscription(s) you have requested (if any), and honor your preferences about email communications, both now and in the future.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data
