Depending on how you use EV Signal, we may collect:
- Account information – name, email address, and profile image provided by sign-in providers such as Google, GitHub, Apple, Microsoft Entra ID, or Facebook.
- Newsletter details – your email address and subscription preferences when you join the newsletter.
- Usage data – basic analytics such as pages visited, approximate location, device and browser type, and referrer, used to understand site performance and content interest.

How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Authenticate you and manage your account.
- Send the newsletter and other communications you request.
- Understand which stories and categories are useful so we can improve EV Signal.

Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember basic preferences, and measure aggregate usage. You can usually control or delete cookies through your browser settings, but some features (such as staying signed in) may not work correctly without them.
When we share data
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with:
- Service providers who power infrastructure such as hosting, databases, email delivery, and analytics, under contracts that limit how they can use your data.

Data retention
We keep personal data only as long as it is needed for the purposes described above, or as required by law. If you delete your account or unsubscribe from the newsletter, we remove or anonymize related data within a reasonable time, subject to any legal retention requirements.
Your choices
- You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in each email.
