Contact forms and email
When you submit our contact form, we collect your name, email address, subject, and message. Submissions are sent to info@afterrecess.com so we can respond to your inquiry. We also receive information you choose to provide when contacting us directly by email.
Submitting our contact form does not subscribe you to our newsletter. Please avoid including sensitive personal information in your message.
Newsletter subscriptions, waitlists, and resources
When you subscribe to our newsletter, join a resource waitlist, or request an email-delivered resource, we collect the information you enter in the signup form. We use it to provide the resource, updates, and communications described on that form.
We use MailerLite to manage signup forms, subscriber information, and email delivery. You can read its privacy policy at https://www.mailerlite.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Open tracking is enabled for our future email campaigns and automations. This uses an invisible beacon embedded in emails to help us understand whether they are opened.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link included in an email. You can also contact info@afterrecess.com for assistance.
Comments and profile pictures
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser information to help identify spam.
Approved comments, the commenter’s name, and any supplied website link may be publicly visible. Your email address is not displayed publicly.
An anonymized identifier generated from your email address may be provided to Gravatar to check for a profile picture. After your comment is approved, that picture may appear beside it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
