Who we are

Our website address is: https://angryanalyst.com.

Comments

When you leave a comment on this site, we collect the information shown in the comment form (your name and email address), along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.

Newsletter

If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address and share it with our email service provider, Kit (formerly ConvertKit), which sends the newsletter on our behalf and stores your subscription details. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience so you do not have to re-enter them the next time you comment. These cookies last for one year.

This site also uses a small number of technical cookies from our hosting and caching provider to improve page load speed, and analytics cookies (see below) to help us understand how the site is used.

Analytics

We use Google Site Kit to understand overall traffic and how visitors find and use this site, such as which pages are popular. This data is aggregated and does not identify you individually. You can learn more about how Google handles data at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may occasionally include embedded content, such as videos or images. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited that other website directly. Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. If you subscribe to the newsletter, we retain your email address until you unsubscribe.

What rights you have over your data

If you have left comments or subscribed to the newsletter, you can request an exported copy of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except where we are required to keep it for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To make either request, email hello@angryanalyst.com.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Newsletter sign-ups are processed and stored by Kit (formerly ConvertKit). Site traffic data is processed by Google via Site Kit. This site is hosted with Hostinger.
