Site and email privacy
Privacy notice
This note explains how limited information is handled when you read efetanyer.com or subscribe to new-publication emails.
Approximate readership metrics
The site creates a random identifier only in the open tab to count approximate page views, readers and live presence. It is not saved in a cookie or browser storage and resets when the page is fully reloaded. Only a one-way hash and timestamps reach the readership database. Names, email addresses, raw IP addresses and raw user-agent strings are not stored there. Reloads and multiple devices can therefore count one person more than once.
Hosting and security
Cloudflare Sites serves the website and may process normal technical request data or set strictly necessary security cookies such as __cf_bm. The readership endpoint uses request metadata briefly to reject cross-origin traffic and limit abuse; it does not add that metadata to the readership database.
Email subscription
The signup form asks only for your email address. Buttondown records your subscription and confirmation status and may process timestamps, IP address, referrer and delivery events. Optional email-open, link-click and automatic UTM tracking are disabled. Newsletter information is kept separate from the site's public readership counters.
Why it is used
This limited information is used to show approximate readership, keep the site reliable, confirm your request, send newly published Daily Market Capsules and Market Guides, manage delivery and prevent abuse.
Consent and control
Subscription requires an unticked consent box and a confirmation link sent by email. You can unsubscribe from any newsletter email. You can also write to efetanyer@gmail.com to ask about, correct or delete your subscription information.
Service providers
Cloudflare provides hosting, security and the readership database. Buttondown LLC provides subscription and email delivery services. These providers may process information outside your country under their own privacy and data-transfer safeguards.
Retention
Short-lived active-reader data is used only for the live 90-second window. Aggregate readership totals remain part of the publication record. Subscription information is kept while you remain subscribed; limited suppression, consent or delivery records may remain when needed to respect an unsubscribe request, prevent abuse or meet legal obligations.
