The data controller is Simon Grund ApS, a company registered in Denmark under CVR-nr. 44596709. Write to simon@bethaniel.eu about anything in this policy.

When you sign up for Notes from Betty — in the newsletter section, after a download, or on your phone — we keep:

• your email address;
• the language of the page you signed up on, so we can write to you in it;
• where on the site you signed up;
• whether your subscription is awaiting confirmation, active, or ended, and the dates each of those happened — and when we sent you a reminder, if we did;
• your welcome discount code, if one was issued (section 4);
• a random token that makes the confirm and unsubscribe links in your emails work.

We do not store your IP address, your browser or device, or anything about your visit.

We rely on your consent (GDPR article 6(1)(a)). You give it by signing up, and confirm it by pressing the button in the welcome email. Until you confirm, you receive no newsletters. If you have not confirmed after three days, we send one reminder, and then nothing more — so if someone else types in your address, you get the welcome email and that one reminder.

You can withdraw your consent at any time with the unsubscribe link at the foot of every email, which also works as the one-click unsubscribe button your mail app may show. Withdrawing does not affect what was sent before.

Our newsletters contain no tracking pixel, and their links are not rewritten to pass through a counter. We know how many emails we sent, and which could not be delivered — not who read them.

• While you are subscribed, we keep your details.
• If you never confirm, your address is deleted automatically after 90 days.
• When you unsubscribe, we keep your address marked as unsubscribed, so that it is never added back by mistake — for example by importing an old list. That is our legitimate interest in respecting your choice (article 6(1)(f)). If you would rather it were erased entirely, write to us and it will be.
• If an email to you bounces permanently, or is reported as spam, we stop writing to that address and keep it marked for the same reason.

On a phone you can ask for Betty's download link by email without subscribing. We use your address to send that one email and do not store it. The email service (section 7) processes it to deliver the message and keeps its usual delivery logs.

When the welcome offer is running, confirming your subscription gets you a single-use discount code: it is shown the moment you confirm, and sent to you by email. The code is created in Betty's own cloud service — the one that runs paid cloud jobs — where the app looks it up when you type it in. It is stored there on its own: no email address, no name, nothing that points back to you. We keep the code with your subscription so that signing up twice never produces a second code.

A code works whether or not you stay subscribed. When you use it to buy a cloud job, the cloud terms apply to that purchase, including what Stripe receives at checkout.

The Betty app itself sends us nothing. When you buy a cloud job, the email address you give at Stripe's checkout is stored with the job in Betty's own cloud service, linked to its Stripe payment. We keep it so that the job can be refunded — automatically, if it expires unused — and so that we can help you if something goes wrong with it.

Stored with the job: that email address, the Stripe payment reference, what was bought and for how much, any discount code used, and how much of the job's capacity was used. Never any part of your manuscript — the cloud terms set out what happens to your text. We keep these records for as long as a refund, a support question or our bookkeeping may need them.

We rely on the contract you enter by buying the job (GDPR article 6(1)(b)), and on our legal obligation to keep accounts (article 6(1)(c)).

• Visit counts. We count page views, downloads, enquiries, requests for the link by email and newsletter sign-ups: which page or form, which campaign link brought you if any, your country, and whether your device is a Mac, Windows or Linux computer or an iPhone or Android phone. The campaign is held in your browser's session storage for the length of the visit — not a cookie, and gone when you close the tab. No IP address or identifier is stored, so no two counts can be tied to one person. A counted sign-up never includes the email address, and we do not match the counts against the subscriber list. The download link in an email we send you carries the name of the campaign that brought you, if any — so a download on your computer is counted against it — and nothing that identifies you. The same goes for the link the site's share button gives you on a phone.
• Contact forms. A message you send through a contact form is delivered to our inbox by Web3Forms, and used to answer you.
• Hosting and fonts. Like any website, the site's host (Vercel) and its font service (Bunny Fonts, in the EU) receive your IP address when your browser asks them for a page or a font. We do not receive or keep it.

These companies process data on our behalf, under data processing agreements, and only to run the service:

• Resend — sends every email from this website: the welcome email, the link, and the newsletters. It receives your email address and the content of the emails we send you.
• Neon — runs the database that holds the subscriber details in section 2.
• Vercel — hosts the website and runs its code: sign-ups, and the admin pages, where cloud jobs are shown with their buyers' email addresses.
• Cloudflare — runs Betty's own cloud service, which keeps the cloud jobs, each with the email address its buyer gave at checkout (section 5), and the discount codes (never with a subscriber's address).
• Stripe — takes payment for cloud jobs, and receives the email address you give at checkout.
• Web3Forms — delivers contact-form messages.

Some of these companies are based in the United States, or may access data from there. Where that is the case, the transfer relies on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the company is certified under it, and otherwise on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

You can ask to see the data we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to have its use restricted, to receive it in a portable form, and to object to its use. Write to simon@bethaniel.eu; we answer within a month.

If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can complain to the Danish Data Protection Agency, Datatilsynet, or to the authority where you live.

If we change how we handle your data, we update this page and its date below. A change that needs new consent from you is asked for, not assumed.
