Abide of North Carolina, LLC (“ABIDE,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) values trust, clarity, and respect for the people who choose to engage our work. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information related to the ABIDE-ing Tips Newsletter.

1. Who We Are

The ABIDE-ing Tips Newsletter is published by Abide of North Carolina, LLC, a North Carolina-based company focused on education, bias mitigation, leadership development, and thoughtful public discourse.

The newsletter is hosted and delivered through Substack.

2. The Role of Substack

Substack provides the platform infrastructure for subscriptions, email delivery, payments (if applicable), and analytics. Substack independently collects and processes certain subscriber information under its own Privacy Policy.

This policy describes how Abide of North Carolina, LLC interacts with subscriber information made available to us through Substack, not how Substack operates its platform.

3. Information We Can See

Through Substack, we may have access to limited subscriber information such as:
• Subscriber names
• Subscription status (free or paid, if applicable)

We do not download, export, or independently store subscriber data outside of Substack.

4. What We Do Not Do

To be explicit:

• We do not sell subscriber data
• We do not share subscriber data with third parties
• We do not use subscriber information outside the Substack platform
• We do not build or maintain off-platform email lists from Substack subscribers

Subscriber information remains on Substack’s platform.

5. Analytics and Tracking

We rely solely on Substack’s built-in analytics to understand newsletter performance.

We do not use:
• Google Analytics
• Website tracking pixels
• Third-party marketing or advertising trackers related to this newsletter

6. Payments and Future Offerings

At present, the ABIDE-ing Tips Newsletter may be offered as a free publication.

In the future, we may offer paid subscriptions, donations, consulting services, educational products, or related offerings. If those changes affect how subscriber information is handled, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

7. Data Sharing and Service Providers

We do not share subscriber information with third parties except as required to operate the newsletter through Substack and its essential service providers.

We are not responsible for how Substack processes data under its own policies.

8. International Readers

While most subscribers are based in the United States, we welcome international readers.

Where applicable, subscribers may request access to, correction of, or deletion of their personal information by contacting us. Requests will be handled in coordination with Substack’s platform capabilities.

9. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the effective date and communicate changes clearly.
