This page is about fairtoll.net and the pilot sign-up form on it. "We" means Fairtoll, based in the United States. We decide what happens to the information below. You can reach us at hello@fairtoll.net.

What we collect and why

When you join the pilot

We get your email address, your site's address, how much setup help you want, and, if you choose to tell us, how you'd like to get paid. We use them to talk to you about the pilot and to set Fairtoll up on your site, because you asked us to. The payout answer also helps us decide which payout options to build first.

When you visit

We count visits so we can see how many people get from the homepage to the sign-up form. For each page you open, Umami records the page, the site that sent you, your browser, operating system, device type, screen size and language, and your rough location worked out from your IP address. It also records the steps you take toward signing up: reaching the plans, clicking Join the pilot, and the setup level you chose when you send the form. It never gets your email or site, and it doesn't store your IP address. Cloudflare Web Analytics also counts each page you open, with the page, the site that sent you, your browser, operating system and device type, your country worked out from your IP address, and how fast the page loaded. It never gets your email or site.

To keep the site working and free of spam

When you send the form, Cloudflare uses your IP address to stop more than 5 sign-ups a minute from one network, and keeps a log of the request so we can find errors. The log holds details such as your IP address and browser, but not your answers. We count visits and keep these logs because we have a legitimate interest in running and protecting the site.

Who handles it

We don't sell your information, use it for anything not on this page, or add you to a mailing list. Only these services handle it, each for us and on our instructions.

Cloudflare

What
Serves the site, emails your sign-up to our inbox without keeping a copy, applies the spam limit, keeps the request log, and counts page views with Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Where
Cloudflare's network, worldwide.
How long
The request log for up to 7 days. The spam-limit count for about a minute. Web Analytics data for 6 months.

Google (Gmail)

What
Hosts the inbox where your sign-up arrives. This is the only place we keep it.
Where
Google's data centres, which can be in the US and elsewhere.
How long
Until you ask us to delete it.

Umami Cloud

What
Counts visits and sign-up steps, as described above. Its script and Cloudflare's Web Analytics script are the only things on the site your browser loads from elsewhere.
Where
The US.
How long
6 months.

We are in the US, and so are the companies behind these services, which may be outside your country. They protect your information under their own data protection terms, which for transfers from the EU and UK use the standard contractual clauses.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. Email hello@fairtoll.net from the address you signed up with, and we'll reply within a month and tell you when it's done. Umami, Cloudflare Web Analytics and the request log don't hold anything that identifies you to us, so we can't pick out your visits there.

If you think we've handled your information badly, you can complain to the data protection authority where you live.

Cookies

This site sets no cookies, and neither Umami nor Cloudflare Web Analytics uses them. You can block both with an ad blocker without breaking anything here.

Changes and questions

When we change what we collect or who handles it, we update this page and the date at the top. Questions go to hello@fairtoll.net.
