Privacy Policy

San Quentin SkunkWorks respects your privacy. This policy describes what information we collect through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have.

What we collect. If you contact us through the form on this site or by email, we receive the name, email address, and message you provide. If you sign up for our mailing list, we receive your email address. Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard technical logs such as IP address and browser type.

Donations. Online donations are processed by Donorbox, a third-party payment processor. We do not receive or store your card or bank details. Donorbox handles payment information under its own privacy policy.

Analytics and advertising. We use Google Analytics to see how people use this site and whether our Google ads lead to donations and newsletter signups. If you reach this site by clicking one of our ads in ChatGPT, the site also loads OpenAI's measurement pixel, which stores a cookie for up to 30 days so OpenAI can tell us whether the ad led to a signup or donation. That pixel may send OpenAI a scrambled (hashed) version of contact details you enter, such as your email address. Visitors who do not arrive from a ChatGPT ad never load it. You can block these tools with your browser's privacy settings or an ad blocker.

How we use your information. We use contact details to respond to your message, send the newsletter you signed up for, acknowledge donations, and keep required financial records. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate (such as our email and payment providers) or when the law requires it.

Your choices. Every newsletter includes an unsubscribe option. You can also ask us at any time to correct or delete the personal information we hold about you by writing to hello@sanquentinskunkworks.org.

Children. This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes. If this policy changes, we will post the updated version on this page.

Contact. Questions about this policy: hello@sanquentinskunkworks.org or San Quentin SkunkWorks, 300 Gooding Way #334, Albany, CA 94706.
