Your information, handled plainly.

This note explains how Poliarchism (https://poliarchism.tekhx.com) handles personal information, in line with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173).

What this website collects

• Nothing through forms. The contact, subscribe, free-ebook and order buttons do not send anything to our server: they open your own email app or Messenger with a message for you to read and send.
• No accounts, no tracking cookies and no advertising or analytics scripts.
• Your browser keeps two small settings on your own device: your light or dark theme choice, and whether you have already seen the opening animation. You can clear them at any time in your browser.
• Like any website, the server that hosts it keeps short-lived technical logs (such as IP address and pages requested) for security and to keep the site running.

What we keep when you write to us

• Newsletter and free ebook: your email address, and your first name if you gave it, to send you the newsletter and the free introduction. You join only if you tick the consent box and send the request yourself.
• Book orders: your name, email and order details, to arrange payment and deliver the ebook, and as a record of the sale.
• Inquiries: what you write, to reply and to arrange seminars, interviews or collaboration.

How we use it

Only for the purpose you wrote to us for. We do not sell, rent or share your information with anyone for their marketing. Email and Messenger are provided by their own companies, whose privacy policies also apply.

How long we keep it

Newsletter addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Order records are kept as long as the law requires for business records. Inquiries are kept while the conversation is useful, then deleted.

Your rights

Under the Data Privacy Act you may ask what information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and object to its use. To unsubscribe, reply “unsubscribe” to any newsletter. For anything else, write to hello@poliarchism.com. You may also contact the National Privacy Commission.

Changes

If the site later adds an online store or a mailing-list service, this note will be updated before they go live.
