Your privacy choices

This page is for exercising your privacy rights under California’s CCPA / CPRA, Washington’s My Health My Data Act, the EU’s GDPR, and the UK’s UK GDPR. The full policy is on our privacy page; this page is the shorter “how do I actually do this” version.

What we already do, by default

• We do not sell your personal information, in the sense the law defines it.
• We do not share your data for cross-context behavioral advertising. Your journal content is excluded from advertising measurement.
• Website measurement excludes your journal content. We use Vercel for cookieless page-view counts and content-free link events, as explained in our Privacy Policy.
• Belong does not train AI models on your entries. Anthropic and OpenAI do not use commercial API data for training by default unless a customer expressly opts in. Google’s treatment differs between paid and unpaid service tiers, so Gemini is not Belong’s normal route and wider use remains gated on paid-service verification. Full sub-processor list: /subprocessors.

Global Privacy Control

We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as a valid opt-out request for sale and sharing of personal information.

Your browser is currently sending GPC: checking…

If your browser doesn’t support GPC natively, extensions like Privacy Badger or browsers such as Brave and Firefox can enable it for you. You can also confirm an explicit manual opt-out below. We report whether it was saved for this browser or for a signed-in account. A browser preference alone cannot identify your account on another device.

Send a privacy request

Pick the request that matches what you want. Each link opens an email pre-filled with the right subject line and a starter template.

• Request: Limit use of my Sensitive PI
• Request: Delete my account and data
• Request: Access / export my data
• Request: Correct inaccurate information

We respond within 45 days for California / Washington requests (with one possible 45-day extension if the request is complex), and within 30 days for GDPR / UK GDPR requests.

Washington residents (MHMDA)

If you are a Washington resident, you have the additional rights described on our privacy page under “Consumer health data — Washington residents.” Use the same email above with “Washington MHMDA request” in the subject line.

EU / UK residents (GDPR)

If you are in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you can also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. Contact details for the relevant authority are available on your country’s data protection regulator’s website.
