Writing, Wearing (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By subscribing to or otherwise using this site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

Account and subscription information. When you sign up for Writing, Wearing, we collect the information you provide directly, such as your name and email address. This is handled through our publishing platform, Ghost.

Payment information. If you purchase a paid or gift subscription, payment is processed by Stripe. We do not store your card details, billing address, or other payment credentials on our own servers — Stripe handles this in accordance with its own privacy policy and security standards. We may receive limited transaction information from Stripe (such as subscription status, payment date, and amount) to manage your account.

Cookies and similar technologies. Our site may use cookies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect certain site features, such as staying logged in.

Usage information. We may collect basic technical information — such as browser type, device type, and general location (e.g., country or city level) — through standard analytics tools, to help us understand how readers engage with the site.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Deliver newsletter content and manage your subscription
  • Process payments and gift subscriptions
  • Respond to your questions or support requests
  • Understand readership trends and improve the site
  • Send occasional administrative updates (such as changes to this policy or to your subscription)

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your data for third-party advertising.

How We Share Information

We share information only as needed to operate the site:

  • Ghost — our publishing and subscription platform, which stores subscriber names, emails, and subscription status
  • Stripe — our payment processor, which handles all payment and billing details
  • Service providers who assist with technical operations (e.g., email delivery, hosting), bound by their own confidentiality and data protection obligations

We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Data Retention

We retain subscriber information for as long as your subscription is active, and for a reasonable period afterward to comply with legal, tax, or accounting obligations. You may request deletion of your data at any time (see “Your Choices” below).

  • Access or deletion: You can request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us (see below).

Children’s Privacy

Writing, Wearing is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
