What needs your consent

Some uses are needed to give you what you asked for, like sending the newsletter you signed up for or replying to your message. Others, like personalized ads and some analytics cookies, need your consent where the law requires it. You’ll see a cookie choice banner when you first visit from a region that requires one, and you can change your choice at any time.

Cookies and your choices

Who I share it with

I never sell your personal information for money. I share it only with services that help me run the site, and only as much as they need:

Some of these companies are based outside Mexico, mainly in the United States, so your information may be processed there. I only use services that protect it.

How long I keep it

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your information, or object to how I use it. In Mexico these are your ARCO rights. Depending on where you live, you may also be able to ask for a copy of your data or withdraw consent at any time.

To make a request, email me with what you’d like me to do. I’ll reply within 20 business days. If you’re in Mexico and unhappy with my response, you can contact the Secretaría Anticorrupción y Buen Gobierno. If you’re in the EU or UK, you can contact your local data protection authority.

Children

This site is for adults. I don’t knowingly collect information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU). If you think a child has shared information with me, let me know and I’ll delete it.

Keeping it safe

The site uses a secure connection (HTTPS), and I use reputable services with their own security measures. No website is 100% secure, but I take reasonable steps to protect your information.

Changes to this policy

If I change how I use your information, I’ll update this page and the date at the top. For bigger changes, I’ll let newsletter subscribers know.
