Privacy policy
Effective July 11, 2026
Health browsing is sensitive by nature. Someone reading about heavy periods, low libido, or burnout should not become an advertising segment. So we built The Her Shift to collect as close to nothing as a website can.
What we don’t collect
- No analytics or measurement scripts, first- or third-party.
- No advertising trackers, pixels, or fingerprinting.
- No accounts, and therefore no profiles, passwords, or reading histories.
- No third-party embeds that phone home while you read.
What stays on your device
Two features use your browser’s local storage: saved articles and the symptom planner. That data is written and read entirely on your device. It is never transmitted to us — we have no server that could receive it. Clearing your browser data deletes it; so can the planner’s own Clear button. The planner also deliberately avoids asking for identifying or high-sensitivity details like date of birth, insurance, address, or medication doses.
What we receive if you contact us
If you email hello@example.comor subscribe to the newsletter, we receive what you send — your email address and message. Newsletter addresses are used to send the newsletter and for nothing else: no selling, no renting, no “partner offers.” Unsubscribing removes you. If no newsletter service is configured, the signup form says so and transmits nothing.
Server logs
Like all websites, the server that delivers these pages may generate standard technical logs (such as IP address and requested URL) for security and reliability. We do not use logs to profile readers, and we do not combine them with any other data.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and its effective date. Questions: hello@example.com.
