Privacy Policy

This policy explains what SPEN10 ("SPEN10", "we", "us") collects when you visit spen10.com, why, who processes it for us, and how you can have it deleted. SPEN10 is a free resource of guides, articles and tool recommendations for building websites and apps with AI.

The short version: the only personal information we ask for is your email address, and only if you choose to subscribe. We don't run analytics or advertising trackers, and we never sell your data.

1. Information we collect

• Email signups. If you subscribe, we store your email address, which signup form you used (for example, the home page or a specific post), and when you signed up.
• Messages you send us. If you email us, we keep your message and email address so we can reply.
• Technical data. Like any website, our hosting provider automatically processes basic request information — such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested — to deliver the site, keep it secure and prevent abuse. We don't use this to identify or profile you.

Signup forms include a hidden field that helps us filter out spam bots. It isn't shown to people and isn't stored.

2. How we use it

• To send you the guides, articles and updates you subscribed to.
• To reply to your messages.
• To operate, secure and improve the website.

We don't sell, rent or trade your personal information, and we don't use it for advertising.

3. Cookies & local storage

SPEN10 doesn't use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Your light/dark theme choice is saved in your browser's local storage so it's remembered on your next visit; it never leaves your device. The only cookies we set are sign-in cookies for the site administrator.

4. Affiliate links

Some links to products and tools are affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you buy something after clicking — at no extra cost to you. When you click one, you leave spen10.com and the other company may use its own cookies to record that the visit came from us. That company's privacy policy applies to anything you do on its site. We don't receive your personal information from affiliate partners — at most, aggregate reports of clicks and sales.

5. Who processes your data

These providers process data on our behalf, only to run the website:

• Supabase — database that stores email signups, encrypted in transit and at rest.
• Vercel — website hosting.
• Cloudflare — domain name (DNS) services.

If we start sending email newsletters through an email delivery service, we'll add it to this list before your address is shared with it.

6. How long we keep it

We keep your email address until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. Emails you send us are kept for as long as needed to help you.

7. Your choices and rights

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send, or by emailing support@spen10.com. You can also ask us what information we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it. Depending on where you live — for example, under the GDPR in the EU and UK, or California privacy law — you may have additional rights, and we'll honor them. We'll respond within 30 days.

8. Children

SPEN10 isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has subscribed, contact us and we'll delete it.

9. Security

Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS), and access to stored email addresses is restricted to the site administrator by database-level security rules. No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

10. Links to other sites

Guides, posts and the resource directory link to other websites, including apps we build such as LimitKeep. Each has its own privacy policy, which applies when you visit it.

11. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update the effective date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be highlighted on the site or emailed to subscribers.

12. Contact
