Privacy policy.

In brief, I collect no data about you. If you sign up for my newsletter, managed through MailChimp, they may collect data—check out their privacy policy here. As for the rest, third party players might collect data, but I have my hands full simply keeping this website up-to-date, let alone getting crafty about tracking users.

Nonetheless, here’s the full privacy policy:

Protecting your private information is our priority. This Statement of Privacy applies to angelamsanders.com and governs data collection and usage. By using the angelamsanders.com website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.
