Privacy Policy

Last updated 30 May 2026

NodinWrite is a trading name operated by Stephen Clarke ("NodinWrite", "we", "us"). This policy explains what information we collect when you sign up for the GLASS + KILN closed alpha, why we collect it, and the rights you have over it. We keep what we collect to the minimum needed to tell you when the alpha opens — nothing more.

1.Who is responsible for your data

NodinWrite (a trading name of Stephen Clarke) is the data controller responsible for the personal information described in this policy. If you have any question about how we handle your data, you can reach us at privacy@nodinwrite.com.

2.What we collect

  • Information you give us. When you submit the signup form, we collect your email address (and any name or other details you choose to provide). We only ask for what we need to contact you about the alpha.
  • Technical information. Like most websites, our hosting and email providers automatically log limited technical data — such as your IP address, browser type, and the time of your request — for security and to operate the service. We do not use this to build a profile of you.

We do not knowingly collect any "special category" data, payment details, or information from children (see section 9).

3.How we use your information

We use the information you provide only to:

  • notify you when the closed alpha is ready and send you access details;
  • send occasional development updates about GLASS + KILN;
  • respond to messages you send us; and
  • keep the site and our mailing list secure and working correctly.

We will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.

4.Our legal basis

For visitors in the UK, EU, and other regions with similar laws, our legal basis for sending you alpha and development emails is your consent, given when you submit the signup form. You can withdraw that consent at any time (see section 7), and doing so will not affect anything we did before you withdrew it. We rely on our legitimate interest in operating and securing the website for the limited technical logging described above.

5.Who we share it with

We don't share your information with anyone except the service providers who help us run the site and the mailing list. These providers act on our instructions and are bound to protect your data:

  • Sender.net — our email list and signup-form provider, which stores your email address and sends our emails. See the Sender privacy policy.
  • Netlify — hosts this website and processes server logs. See the Netlify privacy policy.
  • Google — provides our business email (Google Workspace) and serves the web fonts used on this site, which means your browser contacts Google's servers when the page loads. See the Google privacy policy.

Some of these providers are based in the United States, so your information may be transferred and stored outside your home country. Where that happens, we rely on these providers' standard data-protection safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) to keep your information protected.

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect our legal rights.

6.How long we keep it

We keep your email address on our mailing list until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it, or until we decide we no longer need it (for example, if the project closes). When you unsubscribe or request deletion, we remove your details from our active list promptly.

7.Your rights and choices

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email we send. Once you unsubscribe, we stop emailing you.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to:

  • access the personal information we hold about you;
  • correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete;
  • ask us to delete your information;
  • object to or restrict how we use it, and withdraw consent;
  • receive a copy of your information in a portable format; and
  • lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office).

If you are a California resident, you have similar rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know what we collect and to request deletion. We do not sell or share your personal information as those terms are defined under California law, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising any right.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@nodinwrite.com. We may need to confirm your identity before acting, and we'll respond within the time the law allows.

8.Cookies and tracking

This site does not use advertising or analytics cookies. Our signup-form provider, Sender.net, may set essential cookies needed for the form to function. We do not track you across other websites.

9.Children

This site and GLASS + KILN are intended for adults and are not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has given us their information, contact us and we will delete it.

10.Security

We rely on reputable providers that maintain industry-standard security measures to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to keep your data safe.

11.Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "last updated" date at the top of this page. If we make a significant change to how we use your information, we'll let you know by email where appropriate.
