Privacy policy

We collect as little as we can. We use it to send your order, send the Sunday Letter if you ask for it, and understand how many people visit. We never sell it, and there are no ad trackers on this site.

Payment happens on Stripe's secure checkout page. Your card number goes to Stripe, never to us.

From Stripe we keep what we need to ship your order and answer questions about it: your name, email, shipping address, what you ordered and what you paid. We keep order records as long as the law requires for tax and accounting.

What's in your cart is saved in your own browser so it's still there when you come back. It isn't sent to us until you check out. Clearing your browser data removes it.

If you sign up, we keep your email address to send you the letter. Every letter has an unsubscribe link at the bottom, and unsubscribing stops it for good.

We count visits with Plausible Analytics. It uses no cookies and doesn't track you across other sites or build a profile of you. We only see totals, like how many people read the Journal this week.

Some Journal posts come from JJ's own Instagram account. We only read JJ's posts. We don't collect anything about you from Instagram, and you don't need an Instagram account to read the Journal.

Video posts show a preview image from YouTube and open the video on YouTube, where Google's own privacy policy applies.

We use a few trusted services, each only for its own job: Stripe (payments), Google Firebase (hosting and storing orders and posts), Kit (the Sunday Letter), Resend (order emails) and Plausible (visitor counts). Some of them store data outside Canada, including in the United States.

You can ask to see the information we have about you, have it corrected, or have it deleted (except order records we must keep by law). Email us at jjnorth76@gmail.com and we'll reply within 30 days.
