Privacy Policy

Crowdsourced Criticism takes your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it. We believe in transparency — the same standard we hold others to.

What we collect — When you subscribe, we collect your email address to deliver newsletters and content updates. If you create a paid membership, your payment is processed securely through Stripe. We do not store your credit card information.

How we use your information — Your email is used solely to send you content you signed up for. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Period.

Cookies and analytics — This site is built on Ghost, which uses minimal, privacy-respecting analytics. We may track basic metrics like page views and email open rates to improve our content. We do not use invasive tracking or sell data to advertisers.

Third-party services — We use Ghost for publishing and Stripe for payments. Both services have their own privacy policies and are trusted by millions of publishers worldwide.

Your rights — You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any newsletter. You can request deletion of your account and data by contacting us at privacy@crowdsourcedcriticism.com.

Tip submissions — We take extraordinary care to protect the identity of anyone who submits a tip. We do not log IP addresses on tip submissions and will never voluntarily reveal a source. See our Submit a Tip page for details on how we protect your anonymity.

This policy may be updated as our practices evolve. Any significant changes will be communicated to subscribers. Last updated: July 2026.
