Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information The Foold collects when you read our journalism, subscribe to our newsletter or contact the newsroom, and how we use it.
Information we collect
We collect the details you give us directly, such as your email address when you subscribe to the newsletter, or your name, email, phone number and message when you use the contact form. We also collect basic, anonymous usage data, such as the pages you visit and the device you use, to understand which stories readers value.
How we use your information
We use your email address only to send the newsletters you asked for. Messages sent through the contact form are read by the newsroom and used to reply to you, verify tips or correct our reporting. Usage data helps us improve the site and plan our coverage.
We never sell your data
The Foold does not sell, rent or trade personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run the site and the newsletter, and only to the extent they need to do that work.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies to keep the site working and to measure readership in aggregate. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time; some features may then work less smoothly.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you can unsubscribe from any newsletter with the link at the bottom of each email. To make a request, write to privacy@thefoold.com.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy in a meaningful way, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, let subscribers know by email.
