Information We Collect

Email Address

The only Personally Identifiable Information (PII) we actively collect is your email address, and only when you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter. You do not need to provide an email address to read any content on StackSutra.

Anonymous Usage Information

Like most websites, we may automatically collect anonymous, non-personally identifiable information as you browse, including: browser type and operating system, pages visited, date and time of visit, and general (non-specific) geographic location. This data is aggregated and used for analytics and content improvement. It cannot reasonably be used to identify you personally.

Affiliate Links and Tracking

StackSutra participates in affiliate marketing programmes including Skimlinks, Cuelinks, and Amazon Associates. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission. This is at no extra cost to you.

Affiliate networks may use cookies and tracking pixels to attribute purchases to StackSutra. These cookies:

• Do not contain your personal information
• Are placed by the affiliate network or merchant, not by StackSutra directly
• Can be managed or blocked via your browser settings

Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial recommendations. See our Affiliate Disclosure for full details on how we handle commercial relationships.

Analytics

We may use analytics tools (such as privacy-respecting, self-hosted analytics or standard third-party services) to understand traffic and content performance using aggregated, anonymised data. We do not use analytics for individual-level profiling or advertising targeting.

Cookie Policy

StackSutra may use:

• Analytics cookies — anonymous, aggregated data to understand site usage and improve content
• Affiliate cookies — placed when you click affiliate links; track purchase attribution for commission purposes; contain no personal information
• Functional cookies — required for the site to operate correctly (e.g., session state for logged-in newsletter subscribers)

You can manage, block, or delete cookies at any time via your browser settings.

How We Use Your Information

• 📩 Newsletter — If you subscribe, we use your email address only to send StackSutra updates, including daily news digests, new content, and occasional editorial notes.
• 🛠️ Site improvement — We use anonymous analytics data to understand what content is useful and to improve user experience.

We will never sell, rent, or share your email address with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

• Email service provider — We use a third-party provider to manage subscriptions and send newsletters (such as Resend or an equivalent). Your email address is stored securely with that provider and used only to send our newsletter on our behalf.
• Affiliate networks — Skimlinks, Cuelinks, and Amazon Associates may receive referral data (not your personal information) when you click affiliate links.
• Legal requirements — We may disclose information if required to comply with a legal obligation or to protect our legitimate rights.

We do not authorise any service provider to sell or share your email address for their own marketing.

Legal Basis for Processing

If you are in the EEA or UK, our legal basis for collecting your email address is Consent — provided when you voluntarily subscribe to the newsletter.

Your Rights and Choices

• Unsubscribe — Every newsletter email includes a clear unsubscribe link.
• Access and correction — You may request a copy of the data we hold about you and ask us to correct any inaccuracies.
• Deletion — You may request that we permanently delete your email address from our records.

To exercise any of these rights: use the unsubscribe link in any newsletter, or email us at contact@stacksutra.com.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and administrative measures to protect your information. Your email address is stored through trusted third-party providers using industry-standard security practices. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we apply practical, reasonable safeguards.

Children's Privacy

StackSutra is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at contact@stacksutra.com.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the Last Updated date above. For significant changes, we may also notify newsletter subscribers by email.
