At Break Free Now, I value your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit my blog at breakfreenow.blog, where I inspire professionals to embrace independence through solo or small businesses.

1. Data I Collect

I collect minimal data to operate this site:

• Contact Form: When you submit the contact form, I collect your name, email address, subject, and message. This data is sent to me via email through a Cloudflare Worker and is used solely to respond to your inquiry.
• Analytics: I use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymized data about page views, traffic sources, and user behavior. This helps me understand which content is valuable to my audience. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.
• Security: Cloudflare Turnstile is used on the contact form to prevent spam. It may collect limited browser and device information to verify you’re human.

2. How I Use Your Data

• To respond to your contact form inquiries
• To improve site content based on aggregate analytics
• To protect the site from spam and abuse

3. Who I Share Your Data With

I do not sell or share your personal data with third parties. Limited data is processed by:

• Google Analytics 4: Anonymized usage data (see Google’s Privacy Policy)
• Cloudflare: Contact form processing and Turnstile CAPTCHA (see Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy)
• Resend: Email delivery for contact form submissions (see Resend’s Privacy Policy)

4. How Long I Keep Your Data

• Contact form submissions: Retained in my email indefinitely unless you request deletion
• Analytics data: Governed by Google Analytics 4 data retention settings (currently 14 months)

5. Your Data Rights

You have the right to:

• Access: Request a copy of any personal data I hold about you
• Delete: Request erasure of your personal data
• Opt-Out: Disable cookies via your browser settings or use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

To exercise these rights, use the contact form.

6. Third-Party Links

My blog may link to external sites (e.g., Medium, LinkedIn). I’m not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies before sharing data.
