This note explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. We keep it short and plain on purpose.
When you ask for a reading and choose to unlock the rest, we collect your first name (optional), your email address, and your date of birth. That's it. We don't ask for anything more.
Your date of birth is used to calculate your reading. Your email lets us send you your daily reading and is how we recognize you. We don't use this information for anything you haven't asked for.
Your details are stored in our own database. To run the service we rely on a few trusted providers: our site and database are hosted on Cloudflare; readings are written with the help of Anthropic's AI (your birth date and the day's information are sent so a reading can be generated); and daily emails are delivered through an email service. We do not sell your information, and we don't share it except as needed to provide these features.
You can unsubscribe from emails at any time using the link in any email we send. You can also ask us to delete your information entirely — just email hello@hermitcompass.life and we'll remove it.
We don't use tracking or advertising cookies.
