Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 17, 2026. This privacy policy is drafted for the current static MVP: no backend, no user accounts, no ecommerce, no analytics, no tracking pixels, no ads, and no affiliate links.

Current data status

The website is designed as a static editorial publication. The visible newsletter form is frontend-only and does not currently submit, transmit, or store email addresses.

Personal data

This static MVP does not intentionally collect personal data through forms, accounts, comments, checkout, or analytics. If you contact The Soft Edit by email, your email address and message content will be processed only to respond to your request.

Newsletter placeholder

The newsletter field shown on the website is frontend-only in this MVP. It does not submit, store, or transmit email addresses. Add a real newsletter privacy section before connecting any email provider.

Cookies and analytics

This MVP does not set analytics cookies, advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, embedded ad scripts, or social tracking widgets. Add a cookie and consent section before enabling analytics, advertising, embedded media, or third-party marketing tools.

Fonts and media

The site uses optimized web fonts through the Next.js font system and local image files in the project. Before launch, replace development images with images you own, generated assets you are comfortable using, or properly licensed editorial assets.

Hosting and server logs

Once deployed, the hosting provider may process technical access data such as IP address, date and time of access, requested files, referrer, browser, and operating system for security and delivery of the website. Add the provider name, legal basis, retention period, and data processing details before launch.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you may have rights to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability, and complaint to a supervisory authority, depending on the processing context.

Before launch checklist

  • Add the real controller name, address, and contact email.
  • Add your hosting provider, processing location, legal basis, and retention period.
  • Add newsletter provider details before connecting the form.
  • Add analytics, cookies, Pinterest tags, or social embeds only after updating this policy.
  • Add image source and licensing details if required by the chosen assets.

Legal placeholder only, not legal advice. Before public launch, replace this page with a policy tailored to your hosting provider, newsletter provider, cookies, analytics, image sources, and actual data flows.
