Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 30, 2026

The Hopeful Body is operated by Clear Road Labs. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. Questions? Email damon@clearroadlabs.com.

What we collect

We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used — for example, which pages are popular and how visitors move around. Analytics cookies are only set if you accept them in our cookie banner. If you decline, we do not store analytics cookies and do not send your usage to Google Analytics.

When set, Google Analytics collects pseudonymous information such as a random analytics ID, the pages you view, your approximate location (from your IP address, which we ask Google to anonymize), and basic device and browser details. It does not collect your name or email unless you send them to us directly (for example, by emailing us).

Like most websites, our hosting provider (Vercel) keeps standard server logs (such as IP address and request time) for security and reliability.

Why we collect it

To see what is useful, fix problems, and decide what to write next. We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising.

Who we share it with

We share analytics data only with Google (as our analytics provider) and rely on Vercel for hosting. We do not sell or rent personal information.

How long we keep it

Google Analytics data is retained according to Google’s settings (we use a standard retention period). Server logs are kept only as long as needed for security and operations.

Your choices and rights

You can decline or change your cookie choice at any time using the cookie banner. Depending on where you live (for example, the EU/UK or California), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, and to opt out of certain processing. To make a request, email damon@clearroadlabs.com.

Children

The Hopeful Body is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
