Cookie Policy

Effective Date: 17 June 2025
Last updated on 17 June 2025

1. Who We Are

Welcome to grittest.net, a site run by people who believe in real-world grit over guru nonsense.
This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data. Spoiler: we don’t sell your info – ever.

2. What We Collect

We only collect what’s necessary to run the site and stay in touch when you want us to.

a. Cookies & Analytics
We use Google Analytics to track how people use the site — what pages you visit, how long you hang around, and where you came from. It helps us improve content, not stalk you.

Cookies may collect:
Your IP address (anonymized)
Browser type
Device type
Site usage data

You can turn off cookies in your browser settings if you prefer.

b. Email & Contact Info
When you sign up or contact us, we may store your:
Name
Email address
Anything else you choose to tell us

We use this info to:
Send you updates or marketing emails (you can opt-out anytime)
Contact you if you’ve asked us to
Deliver any downloads or resources you’ve signed up for

We don’t buy, rent, or sell your info. Ever.

3. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party tools like Printful for merchandise or email platforms like MailerLite / Mailchimp / Brevo to send emails. These services may process data on our behalf but they don’t get to use your data for their own marketing.

Each of those tools has its own privacy policy — but we only work with providers that are GDPR-compliant (because we value trust).

4. Your Rights

If you’re in the UK or EU, you’re covered by GDPR. That means you can:
Request access to your data
Ask us to correct or delete your info
Opt-out of marketing at any time
Complain to the ICO if you feel we’ve messed up
Want to talk about your data? Email us at: [insert email address]

5. Updates

If anything changes (like we add a new service), we’ll update this page. Check back if you’re curious.

TL;DR:

We respect your privacy. We use cookies for analytics, store your info when you give it to us, and don’t share it around. You’re in control.
