We do not sell, rent, or share your email address or personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
Email service provider
We use Beehiiv as our email delivery platform. Your email address is stored with Beehiiv for the purposes of delivering the newsletter. Beehiiv has its own privacy policy and data security practices.
Advertising and sponsors
The Waybill includes clearly labeled sponsored content. Sponsors do not receive subscriber data. Sponsorships are placements within the newsletter; they do not involve the transfer of any subscriber information to the sponsoring party.
Cookies and tracking
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences and understand how you use the site. Email newsletters may include tracking pixels that tell us whether an email was opened and whether links were clicked. You can disable email images in your email client to opt out of email open tracking.
Your choices
You can unsubscribe from The Waybill at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any issue. Upon unsubscribing, we will remove your email address from our active subscriber list. You may also contact us to request deletion of any personal information we hold about you.
Data retention
We retain subscriber information for as long as you remain subscribed to The Waybill. If you unsubscribe, we will remove your information from our active lists within a reasonable time, though anonymized or aggregated data may be retained indefinitely.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. However, no internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information.
Children's privacy
The Waybill is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "last updated" date. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
