Plain summary

We collect what you send us, we use it to answer you and improve the guides, and we do not sell it or build marketing profiles from it.

Information we collect

What reaches us when you write

We collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message when you use the contact form or write to [email protected]. That is the whole of the voluntary set — we do not ask for your company registration details, your books, or anything you have not chosen to send.

We also collect limited technical information automatically, including the pages you visit and the type of device or browser you use. This arrives as aggregated page-view counts and device categories, which tell us which guides get read and which ones need rewriting. We do not collect payment information, because the site does not sell anything.

Collected only on request

If you send a correction, a topic suggestion, or a question about a workflow guide, we keep that message together with the reply so the thread stays readable if you write again months later.

How we use your information

Answering you is the point

We use the information you provide to respond to your message, to review corrections or topic suggestions, and to improve the site's content. Technical information is used to understand which pages are read and to keep the site working.

We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not build user profiles for marketing purposes. There is no retargeting pixel on this site and no advertising network receiving your message content.

Replying to your message Name, email, message body
Reviewing corrections Your note and the page it concerns
Choosing what to write next Page views, device category
Keeping the site running Hosting and error logs
Advertising or profiling Never

If you would rather not have a message kept at all, say so in the message. We can answer and then remove the thread on request.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies, and how to turn them off

The site uses cookies for basic functions and to understand how visitors use the pages. Basic cookies keep the site's own navigation working between page loads; the measurement cookies count which guides get opened and how long a page stays on screen, in aggregate rather than per person.

The cookie policy explains the categories of cookies we use and how to control them through your browser settings. You can use the site with cookies disabled, though some features may not work as expected.

If you disable cookies

Pages still load and every guide stays readable. What you lose is continuity between visits — preferences and any in-progress state reset each time you return. Nothing about contacting us changes.

Sharing and disclosure

Who else sees your message

We do not sell personal information. We may share it with service providers that help us run the site, such as hosting and email providers, under agreements that limit their use of the data. Those providers see a message only so far as delivering or storing it requires.

We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of the site or its users. Where a request is broad or unclear, we ask the requester to narrow it before handing anything over.

Sold to data brokers No
Shared with advertisers No
Shared with hosting and email providers As needed to run the site
Disclosed for a legal request Only when required

Data retention

We keep contact messages for as long as needed to respond and to maintain a record of corrections and suggestions. Technical information is retained according to the settings of the analytics tools we use. If you ask us to delete your message, we will do so unless we are required to keep it for legal reasons.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To make a request, email [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law and may ask you to verify your identity before acting on the request.

Children's privacy

The site is written for adults

The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the site, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

What changes, and when

We may update this policy when our practices change or when the law requires it. The date at the top of the page indicates when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.

Revisions are written in the same plain language as the rest of the page. If a change affects what we do with messages you already sent, we say so in the revised text rather than leaving you to compare versions.

Common questions

Do I have to use the contact form to reach you?

No. You can email [email protected] directly or call +1-312-558-5102 during working hours. The form is simply a shortcut that keeps your message and our reply in one thread.

Can I ask you to delete a message I sent last year?

Yes. Send the request to [email protected] and describe enough of the message for us to find it. We delete it unless a legal or accounting requirement obliges us to keep the record, and we tell you which applies.

Does reading a guide subscribe me to anything?

No. Browsing the workflow guides creates no account and no mailing list entry. The only time we hold your email address is when you choose to write to us.

Where can I read the rules you hold yourself to?

Our editorial standards page explains how the guidance is researched, when it is revised, and what we do when a reader reports an error. The terms of service page covers how the site may be used.
