Privacy Policy

Old Guard Skills (“OGS,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to being clear and honest about how we handle your information. This privacy policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can manage your information.

We keep things simple, respectful, and transparent.

1. What We Collect

We collect two types of information:

A. Information you choose to give us

Email address — when you subscribe to our mailing list.

That’s it. We don’t collect names, passwords, payment info, or anything else you don’t explicitly give us.

B. Information collected automatically

Our blogging platform provides built‑in analytics, which may include:

Page views
Traffic sources
Device type (phone, tablet, desktop)
General location (city or region, not your exact address)
Browser type

This information helps us understand what content people enjoy so we can improve the site.

We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or other third‑party tracking tools.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

Send you updates, posts, or announcements if you subscribe
Improve the blog and understand what content is helpful
Keep the site running smoothly

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information. Ever.

3. Email Subscriptions

If you subscribe to OGS updates:

We store your email address securely
We use it only to send you blog‑related content
You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link in any email

Once you unsubscribe, we stop emailing you.

4. Cookies

Our blogging platform may use basic cookies to:

Keep the site functioning
Measure general site activity

We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking you across other websites.

5. Third‑Party Services

We may use a third‑party email service to send newsletters (for example, Mailchimp or a similar provider). If we do, that service only receives your email address and uses it to deliver messages you signed up for.

They do not have permission to use your information for anything else.

6. Data Protection

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including:

Secure storage
Limited access
Using reputable service providers

No online service can guarantee perfect security, but we work to keep your data safe.

7. Your Choices

You can:

Unsubscribe from emails at any time
Contact us to request deletion of your subscriber information
Disable cookies in your browser if you prefer

We support your right to control your information.

8. For Adults Only

Old Guard Skills is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.
