Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 August 2025

Thank you for visiting thecreativephilologist.com. I take your privacy seriously, and I believe your information deserves the same care and respect as your words.

1. What I Collect

If you choose to leave a note or send a message, I may collect:

Your name (if you choose to include it)
Your email address
The contents of your message

This information is only used to respond to your note, and it’s never shared or sold.

I may also use simple tools (like website analytics) to understand how people find and use the site. This might include information like your general location, device type, or time spent here—but nothing personally identifying.

2. How Your Information Is Used

Any personal information you share is used only to:

Reply to your message (if you’ve asked something)
Improve the experience of this site over time
Occasionally send updates, if you’ve explicitly signed up for them

I don’t send newsletters without your consent, and you can opt out at any time.

3. Storage and Security

Your messages are stored securely via the email or website provider I use. I take care to protect this information, but no system is perfectly secure. If you ever want your message deleted, just let me know.

4. Third-Party Services

I may use a few trusted services to help run the site smoothly—such as:

A contact form plugin (e.g. WordPress, Substack, or similar)
Email delivery tools (e.g. Gmail, MailerLite, or Substack)
Basic site analytics (e.g. Google Analytics)

These services have their own privacy policies, and they process data according to their own terms.

5. Your Rights

If you ever want to:

See what information I have
Ask for it to be corrected or deleted
Unsubscribe from updates

Just reach out. I’ll honour your request with care and without question.
