What we keep, where it lives,
and how to leave.

What we collect

Only what you hand us, and only when you hand it over:

• The ledger: your name (if you give one) and your email address.
• Festival wish lists: your email, which festival you chose, and which alerts you asked for (dates confirmed, preorders open, closing soon).
• Partner enquiries: the name, outfit, email and message you send us.
• Festival suggestions: whatever you type in the box.

Form submissions also record a timestamp and the submitting IP address, which we use only to keep bots and abuse out.

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how the site is used: which pages people visit, which buttons get clicked, and roughly where visitors come from. This sets cookies in your browser and shares usage data with Google; we use it to make the site better and to measure our advertising. It does not know your name, and it never touches the email lists above, which stay on our own server.

We also use Microsoft Clarity to see how the site is used in aggregate: heatmaps of where people click and scroll, and replays of anonymised browsing sessions. Clarity masks what you type by default, and like Analytics it never knows your name and never touches the email lists.

If you block cookies or use an ad blocker, the site works exactly the same.

What we never do

• Your details are never sold, rented, swapped or shared with anyone beyond the analytics described above.
• Your email address is never given to advertisers or data brokers.
• Your details are never mixed into any other business, project or database. The Nostrildamus list is the Nostrildamus list, full stop.

Where it lives

On our own server, in a private folder that is not reachable from the web, readable only by us. Signup notifications also arrive in our own inbox so a human sees them. We do not use third-party marketing platforms to hold your data.

What we send you

Exactly what you asked for: the alerts you ticked, and first word from the ledger when kits are ready, plus the occasional freebie we promised. Every email we ever send tells you how to stop getting emails.

Payments

We have taken no payments yet. When preorders open, payment will be handled by a dedicated payment provider; your card details will never touch our server.

Leaving

Write to oracle@nostrildamus.fun and say the word. We will tell you what we hold about you, correct it, or strike your name from the ledger entirely, usually within a few days. No forms, no retention tricks, no guilt trip.
