If you decide to join the newsletter via any of the many sign up forms located throughout the websites, then only your email address is required. We require your email address in order to send you the emails.

I currently use MailChimp as my email service provider (read their privacy policy here https://kb.mailchimp.com/accounts/management/collect-consent-with-gdpr-forms). Your data is collected and then passed to them. Tags are used within MailChimp to track your actions and page visits so that future emails can be better tailored to meet your needs.
Currently, emails are sent each day that has a new post, these emails are RSSFeed driven. However, I may occasionally email you about products and other promotions that may be relevant to your interests.

I use Google Analytics to track website performance and user behavior. It provides information on pageviews, referral sources, and other valuable information that helps me adapt the content I write for this website.

Google Analytics may also capture your IP address as you make your way around this website. User and event data is retained for 26 months and then is automatically deleted. You can read more about that here.
