Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 28, 2026
We believe in minimal data collection. We only collect information that is strictly necessary to run our interactive games, send you updates you explicitly request, and improve our public tools.
1. Information We Collect
- Email Subscriptions: If you sign up for our email series or join an experiment list, we collect your email address and optionally your first name.
- Usage & Analytics: We may collect basic, non-identifying analytical data (such as page views, device type, or browser type) to ensure our games run smoothly across desktop and mobile devices.
- Gameplay Data: Simulation choices made within games like The Water Czar Game are processed locally in your web browser. We do not store or track individual game choices linked to your personal identity.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect solely to:
- Deliver the email series, policy deep-dives, and project updates you signed up for.
- Improve the performance, design, and usability of our web applications.
- Respond directly to your email replies or inquiries.
3. Data Sharing & Third-Party Service Providers
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Period.
We only share data with trusted third-party service providers necessary to operate the Site:
- MailerLite: Powers our newsletter sequences and manages subscriber lists securely.
- GitHub Pages: Hosts our static web applications and public assets.
- Buy Me a Coffee: Handles optional project contributions through secure payment processing.
4. Email Choices & Unsubscribing
You are always in control of your inbox. Every email we send includes a clear Unsubscribe link at the bottom. You can opt out at any time with a single click, which will immediately remove you from that email sequence.
5. Cookies & Local Storage
Mostly Questions uses minimal cookies or browser local storage only when necessary for basic site functionality (such as saving temporary game state or managing session loading). We do not use intrusive third-party cross-site tracking cookies.
6. Contact Us
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or your data, you can reach us by replying directly to any of our emails or contacting us at: hello@mostlyquestions.com.
