PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: November 25, 2025

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Resenting Joy operated by Coffin OBrittany Media LLC collects, uses, and shares information about visitors and subscribers when you access or use our Substack publication, email newsletter, and any related content or services collectively, the “Services”.

Your use of Substack as a platform is also governed by Substack’s own privacy policy and terms. Substack controls parts of the data processing such as account creation, payment processing, and certain analytics. This Policy describes what we personally collect and how we use it, in addition to Substack’s practices.

By using the Services, you consent to the collection and use of information as described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

1 Email address when you subscribe to the newsletter or create a Substack account

2 Name, display name, or other profile details if you choose to add them

3 Payment related information if you purchase a paid subscription, processed by Substack and its payment providers, not directly by us

4 Comments, replies, messages, or other content that you post or send through the Services

5 Any information you send to us directly by email or other contact methods

6 Information collected automatically

When you access the Services, Substack and its service providers may automatically collect

1 Log data such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, and access times

2 Information about how you interact with the publication, including pages viewed, links clicked, and whether you open emails or click links within them

3 Cookie identifiers and similar tracking technologies used for analytics and performance

We may have access to portions of this information through Substack’s publisher tools and analytics.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we have access to for the following purposes

1 To deliver email newsletters and other content you subscribe to

2 To manage free and paid subscriptions and communicate with you about your account or changes to the Services

3 To respond to questions, requests, or support inquiries

4 To analyze readership patterns and improve our content, offerings, and communication

5 To enforce our Terms of Service, prevent misuse, and protect the security and integrity of the Services

6 To comply with legal obligations or respond to lawful requests from authorities

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Cookies and Analytics

Substack uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and measure how the publication is used. We may review aggregated analytics provided by Substack to understand which posts are being read, which links are clicked, and what helps readers engage with the content.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, though some features of the Services may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

5. Email Communications

If you subscribe to the newsletter, you will receive emails when new posts are published and occasional announcements. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by adjusting your settings in your Substack account.

Even if you unsubscribe from marketing emails, we may still send you essential service related communications, such as messages about your paid subscription if applicable.

6. Payments

Paid subscriptions, payment information, and billing are handled by Substack and its payment processors such as Stripe. We do not receive your full credit card number or bank details. We may see limited information such as the fact that a payment was made, the amount, and the subscription status, in order to manage your access to paid content.

7. How We Share Information

We may share information in the following limited situations

1 With Substack and its service providers, who host and operate the platform and provide analytics, email delivery, and payment processing

2 With professional advisors such as lawyers or accountants, where reasonably necessary to protect our rights or comply with legal obligations

3 When required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request

4 In connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or transfer of our publication, if that ever occurs, in which case reasonable efforts will be made to ensure that the recipient respects this Privacy Policy

We do not share your information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

8. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Email and subscription data may be kept while you are subscribed and for a reasonable period thereafter unless you request deletion, subject to legal retention requirements.

9. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the information under our control, using Substack’s platform security and any additional safeguards we reasonably can. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Services at your own risk.

10. Children’s Privacy

The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will take reasonable steps to delete it. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Services, please contact us.

11. International Users

The Services are operated from the United States. If you are accessing the Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries that may have different data protection laws than where you live. By using the Services, you consent to these transfers.

12. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, such as

1 The right to access and receive a copy of the information we hold about you

2 The right to request correction or deletion of your information

3 The right to object to or restrict certain processing

4 The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

Requests can be sent using the contact information at the end of this Policy. Because much of the data is stored and controlled by Substack, we may ask you to exercise some rights through your Substack account or Substack’s own support channels.

If you are a resident of the European Union, the United Kingdom, California, or another jurisdiction with specific privacy laws, you may have additional rights. We will respond to valid requests in accordance with applicable law.

13. Third Party Links

The Services may include links to websites, services, or content operated by third parties. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and you should review their policies before providing any information.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top. If changes are material, we may also provide additional notice, for example by posting an announcement on the publication or by email.

Your continued use of the Services after any changes become effective means you accept the revised Policy.
