Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026. This page describes how breathanddecay.com handles information. If anything here is unclear or you want data removed, get in touch.

Google Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how people use the site (for example pages viewed, general location, browser type). GA uses cookies and similar technologies; data is processed according to Google’s policies. You can limit tracking with an ad blocker, privacy-focused browser, or incognito/private browsing, and you can read more in Google’s privacy policy .

Newsletter (Email Octopus)

The mailing list is powered by Email Octopus. When you sign up, they process the information you submit (at minimum your email address) on our behalf. Sign-up is double opt-in: you must confirm your subscription (for example via a link in a confirmation email) before you are fully subscribed.

Every newsletter email includes links to manage your subscription or unsubscribe in the footer. You do not need to contact us to leave the list—use those links anytime.

For how Email Octopus handles data, see Email Octopus’s privacy policy.

Affiliate links (Studio / gear page)

The Studio page may include affiliate links to retailers. If you click through and make a purchase, Breath & Decay may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Those third-party sites have their own privacy practices and cookies. More detail is on the Studio page in the affiliate disclosure there.

Email when you contact us

If you email us (for example via the address on the Contact page), we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use that only to respond and to handle your request unless you agree otherwise.

Retention and your choices

We do not sell or trade your personal information. If you have a privacy request (including under GDPR or similar laws) or want records tied to your email address deleted where we control them, contact us and we will work it out.

We may update this policy as the site changes; the “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do.
