North Pass Press (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the website northpass.press. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. By using this website or subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect two categories of information:

• Usage Data. When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type and version, pages visited, time and date of visits, and referring URLs. This data is collected through our analytics provider and is used solely to understand how our content is accessed and to improve site performance.
• Email Address. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address and any name you voluntarily provide. This information is used exclusively to send you editorial updates, publication announcements, and related correspondence from North Pass Press.

2. Analytics — PostHog

We use PostHog to analyze visitor behavior on our website. PostHog collects anonymized usage data (page views, click events, session duration) to help us understand which content is most useful to our readers. PostHog is configured to collect data only from identified users and does not build advertising profiles. For more information, please review the PostHog Privacy Policy.

3. Data Security

We take reasonable administrative and technical precautions to protect the personal information you provide. Our website is served over HTTPS, and we select third-party service providers who maintain industry-standard security practices.

However, no method of data transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. North Pass Press cannot guarantee absolute security and does not warrant that your personal information will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our technical or administrative safeguards.

4. Limitation of Liability for Third-Party Data Breaches

North Pass Press engages reputable third-party service providers, including PostHog, and relies on the security infrastructure and policies those providers independently maintain. While we exercise reasonable care in selecting these providers, North Pass Press expressly disclaims all liability for any unauthorized access, data breach, security incident, or disclosure of your personal information that results from a failure, vulnerability, or breach occurring on a third-party platform.

In the event of a data breach affecting a third-party provider, your rights and remedies will be governed by that provider’s terms of service and applicable law. We encourage you to review the privacy and security policies of any third-party services with which your data is shared.

5. Cookies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to support site analytics (PostHog). These cookies help us recognize returning visitors and understand how our site is used. You may configure your browser to refuse cookies; however, some features of the site may not function as intended if you do so.

6. Data Retention

Anonymized analytics data may be retained for the purpose of understanding long-term site usage.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you;
• Request correction of inaccurate data;
• Request deletion of your personal data;
• Object to or restrict the processing of your data; and
• Withdraw consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@northpass.press. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the website following any such update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.
