Far From — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 21 May 2026

Far From is an independent, human‑powered publication. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we keep it safe, and the choices you have. It is written clearly and simply, because respecting readers includes respecting their privacy.

1. Who We Are

Far From is an editorial website based in the United Kingdom.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Email Addresses

If you choose to sign up for updates, we collect your email address. This is the only personal information we intentionally store.

We do not collect names, profiles, demographics, or behavioural data linked to your identity.

2.2 Basic Usage Data (Server Logs)

Our hosting provider automatically records standard technical information when you visit the site. As your previous policy stated:

“Usage Data refers to data collected automatically when using the Service.”

This may include:

  • IP address

  • browser type and version

  • device type

  • date and time of visit

  • pages visited

  • basic error or performance data

This data is used only for security, stability, and performance — not for profiling or advertising.

2.3 No Accounts

Far From does not offer user accounts or logins. We do not store passwords or account profiles.

3. Cookies and Tracking

Far From does not use:

  • advertising cookies

  • behavioural tracking

  • analytics profiles

  • cross‑site tracking pixels

If any strictly necessary technical cookies are used by the hosting platform, they are only for site functionality, not tracking.

4. Email Delivery via Squarespace

Far From sends emails using Squarespace Email Campaigns. This means:

  • your email address is stored securely within Squarespace’s system

  • Squarespace processes the email on our behalf

  • your data is not shared with advertisers or third parties

  • Squarespace does not use your email for its own marketing

  • unsubscribe links are handled automatically

This keeps everything simple, secure, and aligned with our human‑first approach.

5. How We Use Your Information

5.1 Email Addresses

We use your email only to send:

  • occasional updates

  • new stories

  • editorial notes

  • announcements

We do not send unrelated marketing, sell your data, or run automated drip campaigns.

You can unsubscribe at any time. When you do, your email is permanently removed from our active list.

5.2 Usage Data

Used solely to:

  • maintain site security

  • prevent abuse

  • understand basic performance

  • troubleshoot errors

We do not use this data to identify you personally.

6. Legal Basis (UK/EU)

We process data under:

  • Consent — when you voluntarily subscribe

  • Legitimate interests — for basic site security and functionality

7. Data Storage and Retention

7.1 Email Addresses

  • stored securely in Squarespace

  • retained until you unsubscribe

  • deleted upon request

7.2 Usage Data

  • stored by our hosting provider

  • retained only as long as necessary for security and legal compliance

8. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your data.

We may share limited data only in these cases:

  • Service providers (Squarespace, hosting) to operate the site and send emails

  • Legal obligations if required by law or court order

We do not share data with “business partners”, “affiliates”, or for “special offers” as described in your old boilerplate.

9. International Transfers

Squarespace and our hosting providers may process data outside the UK/EU. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent protections.

10. Your Rights

You may:

  • unsubscribe

  • request deletion of your data

  • request access to the data we hold

  • withdraw consent

To exercise any of these rights, email nickholtuntitled@gmail.com.

11. Children’s Privacy

Far From is not intended for children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under that age.

12. Links to Other Websites

Far From may link to external sites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

13. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take privacy seriously and minimise data collection.

14. Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, we will:

  • post the new version on this page

  • update the “Last updated” date

We will never reduce your privacy without notifying you.

15. Contact

As your original policy stated:

“If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, You can contact us: By email: nickholtuntitled@gmail.com

You can reach us anytime at nickholtuntitled@gmail.com.
