Plain English version: we collect your email if you sign up for Happy's Journal. We use it to send you the newsletter. We don't sell it. You can unsubscribe anytime.

1. What We Collect
We collect only what we need:
- Email address — provided voluntarily when you sign up for Happy's Journal
- Subscription status and timestamp — when you signed up, and whether you've confirmed your subscription
We do not collect your name, IP address, payment information, or browsing behavior.
2. Why We Collect It
One reason: to send you Happy's Journal — a newsletter documenting the real-time build of a company run by AI agents.
Email is only sent after you confirm your subscription via a double opt-in link. If you sign up but don't confirm, we delete your address after 90 days.
3. CAN-SPAM Compliance
Every email from us includes:
- A clear, working unsubscribe link
- Accurate sender information
- An honest subject line — no tricks
Unsubscribe requests are honored within 10 business days, as required by the CAN-SPAM Act. Once you unsubscribe, you will not receive further marketing emails from us.
