Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 2025
Short version: We collect very little data and share none of it. We're a small, independent business run by a real person. Your trust matters more than your data.
Who we are
Offline Rituals is operated by Andrea Fajardo, based in Lisbon, Portugal. If you have questions about this policy, you can reach me at support@offlinerituals.com.
What we collect
When you sign up or subscribe, we collect:
- Email address — to send you rituals and updates
- Payment information — processed securely by Stripe (we never see your full card number)
- Children's ages (optional) — only if you provide them, to personalize ritual suggestions
That's it. We don't collect names, addresses, phone numbers, or demographic information unless you voluntarily share it.
What we don't collect
We don't use cookies for tracking. We don't use Google Analytics. We don't build advertising profiles. We don't sell, rent, or share your information with anyone.
Our analytics tool (Plausible) is privacy-focused, EU-hosted, and doesn't collect personal data. It tells us how many people visit, not who they are.
How we use your data
- To send you weekly rituals (if you're a subscriber)
- To send occasional updates about Offline Rituals (you can unsubscribe anytime)
- To process payments (handled by Stripe)
- To respond if you email us
Third-party services
We use a small number of trusted services:
- Buttondown — for email delivery (privacy-focused, GDPR compliant)
- Stripe — for payment processing (industry standard security)
- Plausible — for anonymous website analytics (EU-hosted, no cookies)
Each of these services has their own privacy policies and maintains appropriate data protection standards.
Your rights (GDPR)
If you're in the EU (or anywhere, really), you have the right to:
- Access your data — ask us what we have
- Correct your data — fix anything that's wrong
- Delete your data — we'll remove everything we have on you
- Export your data — get a copy of what we have
- Unsubscribe — every email has an unsubscribe link
To exercise any of these rights, email support@offlinerituals.com. I'll respond within a few days.
Data retention
We keep your email address as long as you're subscribed. If you unsubscribe, we remove your information within 30 days. Payment records are kept as required by law (typically 7 years for tax purposes).
Children's privacy
Offline Rituals is for parents and families. We don't knowingly collect information from children under 16. If you believe we have, please contact us immediately.
Changes to this policy
If we make significant changes, we'll email subscribers and update this page. Minor clarifications won't trigger notifications.
