Privacy Policy
Last updated July 11, 2026
Tarmac n Torque is a small, independent publication. This policy covers the actual, current data practices of this site in plain language — there's no ad network, no account system, and no tracking beyond what's described below.
What we collect
Newsletter signups.If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the email address you provide. That's the only personal information this site asks for anywhere.
Server logs.Like any website, our hosting infrastructure automatically logs standard technical information (IP address, browser type, pages requested) for security and performance purposes. We don't use this data to build individual profiles, and we don't currently run any analytics or advertising trackers on this site.
How we use it
Your email address is used solely to send the Tarmac n Torque newsletter. We don't sell, rent, or share your email with anyone for marketing purposes.
Third-party services
Newsletter delivery is handled by Buttondown, a third-party email service. Your email address is stored on their platform for this purpose — see their privacy policy for how they handle it. Our site is hosted on standard cloud infrastructure, which processes technical request data as described above.
Cookies
This site does not set any tracking or advertising cookies. If that changes in the future (for example, if we add analytics), this policy will be updated to reflect it.
Your choices
Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link — one click removes you immediately. You can also reach out to us directly to have your email address deleted from our records.
Children's privacy
This site isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.
Changes to this policy
If our data practices change — say, we add analytics or a new third-party tool — we'll update this page and the date at the top.
