Who is responsible

I run this site. Write to hello@nellgarroway.example about anything on this page.

The newsletter

When you sign up for The Tideline you give your first name and email address. They are sent to the form service this site uses, and used only to send the monthly letter. They are never sold or shared. Every letter has a link to unsubscribe, which removes you at once.

The readers’ form

Your name, email and message are sent to the same form service and read by Nell. They are kept for as long as the conversation needs, then deleted.

Orders

Your bag is kept in your browser’s local storage, on your device only, until you check out or empty it. At checkout you give your name, email, delivery address and, for a signed copy, the name to sign it to. Pay now hands these and the total to the payment provider this site connects; Order on WhatsApp opens a WhatsApp message to Nell holding the same order, which you send yourself. They are used only to sign, post and answer questions about your order. This sample site is a demo checkout: no payment is taken and nothing is sent.

Cookies and privacy

This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics or advertising; it only counts the WhatsApp chats visitors start from it, with nothing that identifies them. It remembers your bag and that you closed the cookie notice in your browser’s local storage, on your device only. Fonts load from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when the page loads.

If you add analytics, advertising or embedded videos to this site, update this section and replace the notice with a real choice to accept or reject them.
