Privacy
Privacy, in plain words.
This site counts visits to learn which pages help and where people click. It runs no ad pixels, sells nothing about you, and you can turn the counting off below. What you write to the desk reaches one inbox and is used to answer you.

When you write to the desk
Compose opens your own mail app with the message written; nothing is sent from this site until you send it there. Copy puts the same text on your clipboard.
Where the Send button shows, it posts your message to this site's server, which hands it to an email delivery service (Resend) addressed to the desk. The server does not store it and does not write the message into its logs.
Your email is read, answered and kept in the desk's inbox like any other email. Ask and it is deleted.
The weekly email
If you subscribe, your email address is kept on the list in an email delivery service (Resend), with the page you subscribed from. It is used to send you the free guide, a few short emails after it, and the weekly email. It is never sold, and never used for anyone else's marketing.
Nothing goes on the list until you press the button in the confirmation email. Every email after that has an unsubscribe link, and replying to ask works too. Leave and you get nothing more from the list.
The optional AI first plan
On the Try the desk board, a first plan is written by an AI model (Claude, from Anthropic) only when you press the button for it. Only the text you typed there and its language are sent, for that one answer.
This site keeps none of it. The server logs only how long the answer was, never what you wrote. The step is off until the owner turns it on.
Analytics, and how to turn it off
To learn which pages help and where people get stuck, this site can use four counters, each only once the owner switches it on: Google Analytics (pages viewed, presses on the main buttons, how far a guide is read, the kind of device and a rough location from the network address), Microsoft Clarity (heatmaps and recordings of how a page is scrolled and pressed, with everything typed into a form hidden), Vercel Web Analytics (visit counts without cookies) and Vercel Speed Insights (how fast each page loads and responds, without cookies).
Google Analytics and Clarity set cookies on this site to tell one visit from the next. Their ad features are off, and nothing they collect is sold or used for advertising.
The owner also gets a short phone alert when someone opens a page, presses the main button or sends a message: the page, the site you came from, the kind of device and a rough city from the network address. It carries no name, no email and nothing you typed, and the network address itself is not kept.
If your browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track, none of them load and no alert is sent. You can also turn them off in this browser with the button below; the choice is kept in this browser only and works from the next page you open.
Logs and hosting
The site is hosted on Vercel. Like any web server, it records requests (the page asked for, the time, the browser and the network address) to keep the site running and stop abuse. Those logs are short-lived and are not used to profile anyone.
To slow down spam, the Send and AI routes count requests per network address for a few minutes, in memory only.
What stays in your browser
Your theme choice (light or dark), the checkboxes on a guide, and whether you closed or answered the subscribe pop-up are saved in your own browser. An unsent desk draft is kept for this tab only and goes when you close it. None of it is sent anywhere.
Questions
Write to the desk to see, fix or delete anything you sent. This page changes when the site does; the date above says when it last did.
