Privacy.
Factually Odd is a free daily email. Here is exactly what we keep and why, in plain words.
What we collect
Your email address, the page you signed up from, and any campaign tags in the link that brought you. We ask you to confirm your address before we send anything (double opt-in).
When we send the newsletter we record whether it was opened (a tiny image in the email) and which links you clicked (each link passes through our own site first). We use this to see which oddities land and to stop emailing addresses that never open. Mail apps that block or preload images, like Apple Mail, make the open count rough, and that’s fine.
On this website we count visits ourselves, with no cookies and no outside analytics company. Each visit is counted with an anonymous code made from a one-way scramble of your IP address and browser that changes every day, so we can see how many people visited today but can’t recognize you tomorrow. We never store your IP address or your browser details. We record which pages were viewed, the site that sent you (only its domain), your device type and screen width, your country (never your city), which buttons and outside links were clicked, how far down a specimen you scrolled and roughly how long you stayed, and whether a signup worked. Known bots are filtered out. If your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, we count one anonymous page view and nothing else. Website records are deleted after 13 months.
How we use it
To send you the daily email you asked for, to measure which parts of it are useful, and to keep the list healthy. That’s all. We don’t sell, rent or trade your address, and we never will.
Who helps us run it
Resend delivers our emails, Supabase stores the subscriber list and the website records, and Vercel hosts the site. Each one processes data only to provide that service to us.
Unsubscribing and deletion
Every email has a one-tap unsubscribe link, and your mail app’s own unsubscribe button works too. To have your address and its records deleted entirely, email hello@itsfactuallyodd.com and we’ll do it.
