Information We Collect
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you subscribe to our newsletter (e.g., via the waitlist form on our homepage) or contact us directly via our contact form. This information typically includes your name (if provided) and email address.
We also use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-focused web analytics service, to collect anonymous aggregate data about website traffic. Plausible does not use cookies and does not collect personal data or personally identifiable information (PII). All data is in aggregate only, such as general website trends and number of visitors. This helps us understand site traffic and improve content without tracking individual users.
