Privacy, without the fog.

Altura collects what it needs to operate altura.co, understand basic readership, protect public forms, send the publications and product updates you request, and respond when you write to us.

Last updated October 17, 2026

  • No user accounts or profile database.

  • No sale or rental of personal information.

  • Contact, subscription, analytics, hosting, and anti-spam services process only the data needed for those functions.

Scope

This policy applies to Altura at altura.co, its English and Spanish pages, its email subscription, and its contact form.

It does not govern third-party sites or services that may be linked from these pages.

Information you choose to provide

When you use the contact form, the site receives the information you submit: your name, email address, message and selected language.

That information is used to deliver your inquiry, send a confirmation, and respond to you. The application does not maintain a separate database of contact submissions; messages are delivered through email infrastructure and may remain in the relevant email systems as part of normal correspondence.

When you subscribe to Altura, the site receives your email address and selected language. Resend stores the address as a contact and assigns it to the relevant subscription groups. The selected language is used for your welcome confirmation; it is not stored as a contact property. Your subscription covers the publications and product updates you requested.

Analytics

When Google Analytics is enabled, the site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand basic readership and page activity. This can include page views, referral information, browser and device characteristics, approximate location derived from network information, and related technical identifiers handled by Google.

The current implementation is limited to the base Google Analytics configuration. It does not add custom conversion tracking or custom behavioral events.

Spam prevention and security

The contact form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to distinguish legitimate submissions from automated abuse. A Turnstile verification token and, when available, the requesting IP address may be sent to Cloudflare for verification.

The form also uses server-side validation and anti-abuse checks to protect the contact channel and the site.

Hosting and technical logs

The site is hosted on Vercel. Hosting and network infrastructure may process standard request information such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, timestamps, and diagnostic or security data needed to deliver and protect the site.

How information is used

Information processed through the site is used only for a small set of purposes:

  • operate, secure, and troubleshoot the website;

  • understand aggregate readership and page activity;

  • prevent spam and abusive contact submissions;

  • maintain Altura’s subscription list and send the requested publications and product updates;

  • deliver and respond to messages you choose to send.

Service providers and disclosure

The site relies on service providers including Google Analytics, Cloudflare Turnstile, Resend, and Vercel for the functions described above. Those providers process information under their own terms and privacy practices.

Personal information is not sold or rented. Information may be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect the site, investigate abuse, or enforce applicable rights.

Retention

There is no single retention period for every category of information. Contact messages may remain in email systems while correspondence or reasonable recordkeeping needs continue. Analytics, security, and infrastructure data are retained according to the relevant service configuration and provider practices.

The site does not intentionally keep contact-form submissions in a separate application database.

A subscription email remains in Resend Contacts until you unsubscribe or ask for it to be removed.

Your choices

You can browse without using the subscription or contact form. Browser privacy controls, content blockers, and related settings may limit analytics or third-party scripts.

You can unsubscribe from any Altura subscription email. If you have a question about information you submitted through the site, use the Contact page to ask about correction or deletion where reasonably possible.

Adult readership

Altura is intended for adults aged 18 and over. It does not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If a minor has submitted personal information, contact Altura to request its removal.

Changes

This policy may change as the site, its infrastructure, or its research, subscription, and contact workflows evolve. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
