This Privacy Policy explains how your information is collected, used, and protected when you subscribe to the Heartbeat Newsletter. By joining the newsletter, you agree to the practices outlined here.
Information We Collect
When you subscribe, the only information collected is the email address you provide. No additional personal details are required.
How Your Information Is Used
Your email address is used only to send you the Heartbeat Newsletter and any related updates you choose to receive. Your information is never sold, rented, traded, or shared with outside parties.
How Your Information Is Stored and Protected
