Privacy policy
Last updated: 18 April 2026
This page explains how your data is handled when you visit gainsgeek.com or sign up for the newsletter. Short version: the only data collected is your email and first name (via the signup form), used only to deliver the newsletter you signed up for.
What data is collected
Newsletter signup. When you submit the signup form, your first name and email address are collected and stored by MailerLite (our email service provider) to deliver the daily newsletter you signed up for.
Site analytics. Cloudflare Web Analytics tracks anonymised page views. No cookies, no fingerprinting, no personal identifiers. Data is aggregated at the country/page level and cannot be tied back to individual visitors.
No cookies are set on this site. No third-party ad networks, no retargeting pixels, no trackers beyond the privacy-preserving analytics above.
How the data is used
Your email address is used to send the newsletter you explicitly signed up for. Nothing else. It is not sold, shared, traded, or used for any other purpose.
Analytics data is used to understand aggregate traffic patterns (which pages get visited, where visitors come from geographically). Individual visitors are not identified.
