Privacy Policy

Who operates BerLabs

BerLabs is the name used for this newsletter, which is operated by Kody as an individual in New York, United States. For privacy questions or requests, email Kody@Berlabs.dev. No business mailing address is currently provided.

Information we collect

When you subscribe, we collect your email address, the time you gave newsletter consent, and subscription and confirmation status. The signup service also receives an IP address for bot and abuse prevention; BerLabs hashes the email and IP for rate limiting instead of storing the raw IP in the subscriber database. Signup attempt hashes are automatically removed within 24 hours.

How we use information

We use your email to send the confirmation and BerLabs newsletter you requested, record your subscription choice, provide unsubscribe and data deletion, and protect the signup form from abuse. We do not use the site code to run advertising or audience analytics, and we do not sell subscriber information.

Service providers

Cloudflare hosts the site and provides the Turnstile security check. The browser loads Turnstile from Cloudflare, and our server sends the check token and IP address to Cloudflare for verification. Mailgun delivers confirmation, welcome, and newsletter email to the address you provide. These providers process information to deliver their services under their own terms. Fonts are served from this site rather than Google Fonts.

Retention and deletion

We keep a subscriber record while you are subscribed. After unsubscribe, we keep the email and suppression status so the address will not receive another issue; you can instead delete that record using the separate deletion action on the unsubscribe page. That action also deletes the matching email-based signup hash. IP-based signup hashes expire within 24 hours. Provider logs and backups may follow their providers’ retention schedules.

Your choices and requests

You can unsubscribe from any newsletter email. To delete a subscriber record, open its unsubscribe link and choose “Unsubscribe and delete my stored subscription data.” For access, correction, or other privacy requests, email Kody@Berlabs.dev. Available rights depend on where you live.

Children

BerLabs is a general-audience newsletter for people interested in AI and technology, not a service directed to children under 13. Do not submit a child’s information. If you believe a child under 13 provided an email, contact Kody@Berlabs.dev so we can remove it.

Changes

We will update this page if the information practices change and revise its date. We will publish any new optional tracking or advertising technology only after providing appropriate notice and choices.
