This policy explains what personal information The Daily Brew Café (thedailybrew.cafe) collects, why, and what you can do about it. We keep it to the minimum we need to run the blog and the newsletter.
What we collect
- Newsletter: your email address when you subscribe, so we can send you new posts and updates.
- Comments: the name, email and comment you submit, plus your IP address and browser details to help catch spam.
- Contact form: whatever you choose to send us, such as your name, email and message.
- Site visits: anonymous statistics such as pages viewed, rough location and device type, so we can see which posts readers enjoy.
Services that help us run the site
Some of this information is processed by trusted services on our behalf:
- WordPress.com and Jetpack (Automattic): hosting, newsletter delivery, site statistics and social sharing.
- Akismet: spam filtering for comments and forms.
- Google (via Site Kit): search and traffic analytics.
- Gravatar: showing profile pictures next to comments.
These services may store data outside India. We do not sell your personal information to anyone.
Cookies

Links and embedded content
Posts may link to other websites or include embedded content such as videos or Instagram posts. Those sites may collect data about you under their own privacy policies.
How long we keep it
- Newsletter emails: until you unsubscribe (every email has an unsubscribe link).
- Comments: for as long as the comment is published.
- Contact messages: only as long as needed to reply.
