The public Letter Atelier is a writing practice activity. We are also introducing an invitation-only private-beta Letter Club for approved adults. If this beta has been activated, verified members can create a pen-name profile, opt into discovery, approve connection requests, and exchange private letters in the website. Beta registration is separate from the public interest-list form. For the private beta, we use Supabase for email-based authentication, approved-member status, public pen-name profiles, private letters, connection requests, block lists and reports. Only limited profile information of members opting into discovery is visible to other approved members; personal email addresses are not displayed to pen pals. Letters can be read by their participants and may be accessible to the site operator/provider for safety, support, or lawful administration; this is not end-to-end encrypted messaging. Personal data is held by the relevant service providers and may involve international processing subject to their agreements. We need to finalize the legal basis, retention periods, provider disclosures, appropriate transfers and deletion procedures before inviting members to use live mailboxes. Report or request deletion by emailing thelivingedit.es@gmail.com. This paragraph is part of a draft privacy notice requiring review. If you submit the free Letter Club early-access form, we collect the details you enter (email, pen name, optional country, language preferences, letter interests and frequency, and your confirmations that you are an adult and wish to be contacted). These are transmitted to and stored in Netlify Forms, our website form service. We use these details to review your request, reply to you and send updates about the free Letter Club early-access program you requested. This does not automatically subscribe you to a separate marketing newsletter. Your email is not shown publicly and we do not provide it to other potential pen pals. If we contact you, your email and correspondence may also be held by our email provider. You can request access, correction or deletion, or withdraw your early-access request, by contacting thelivingedit.es@gmail.com. We will keep early-access details only while needed to administer the program or satisfy applicable requirements, subject to review. Your in-browser writing drafts and profile preview stay on your device; no practice letters are transmitted by the writing tool. Our hosting provider may also process routine technical logs.

My Journal: The new journal and expense-tracker features save notes, doodles, resized photographs, events and financial records locally in the visitor's browser. These entries are not uploaded to our Supabase Letter Club database and are not tied to member accounts. They are not password-protected or synced between devices. Anyone using the same browser profile may see them, and browser data clearing may erase them. Visitors can download a backup file and should store it privately. We do not advise entering account numbers, payment card details, or other sensitive financial information into the current journal.
Privacy notice review required: This draft still needs a complete and legally reviewed statement of applicable lawful bases, processing locations and transfers, specific retention periods, user rights (including complaint to the appropriate supervisory authority), all relevant recipients and the operator’s required information before launching a public registration program. Visitors should not submit sensitive details.
