Privacy Policy

We built this site on the idea that honesty is the whole product. That applies to how we handle your information, too.

✦ Last updated July 19, 2026 ✦
Only what you give usYour name, email, and the review you submit. Nothing more.
Never soldYour data is not for sale. To anyone. Ever.
No affiliate trackingProduct links earn us nothing and carry no tracking from us.
Anonymous by defaultYour review runs without your name unless you ask us to credit you.

Every review on Vérité begins with a stranger trusting us with their words, their photos, and their inbox. This page sets out — in plain language, no legal fog — exactly what happens to each of those things.

01

What we collect

Information you give us. When you submit a review through our Share a Review form, we collect your name, email address, the review you write, and any photos you attach. That's it — the form is the only place on this site that asks you for anything.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited) for security and performance. We don't use these to identify you, and we don't run advertising trackers.

02

How we use it

We use the information you submit to:

Review, verify, and publish your submission — reviews run unedited; the only thing we write is the headline.
Contact you about your submission (questions, publication date, or a request for more detail).
Keep the site secure and functioning.
03

What we publish

Reviews are published anonymously by default — bylines read like "Anonymous · three months in." Your name and email are never published, shared with the reviewed brand, or attached to the public review unless you explicitly ask us to credit you. Photos you submit may be published alongside your review.

04

What we never do

Sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Share your identity with the brands we review.
Accept payment, product, or affiliate commission that could tie your data to a marketing relationship — there isn't one.
Send marketing email. If we email you, it's about your submission.
05

Cookies

The site uses only the technical cookies required by our platform (WordPress) to function. We don't set advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Third-party services we rely on — such as Google Fonts for typography — may receive standard technical requests from your browser when the page loads.

06

Data retention & your rights

We keep submission records for as long as the associated review is published. You can, at any time, ask us to:

Show you the personal data we hold about you.
Correct it or delete it.
Take down a review you submitted.

Email us and we'll act on it within 30 days. [EDIT: add your contact email here]

07

Children

Vérité Digest is not directed at children under 16, and we don't knowingly collect their information. If you believe a minor has submitted personal data, contact us and we'll remove it.

08

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be noted plainly — no silent rewrites. That would be against the whole point of this site.

Questions about your data? Write to us — we answer every one. [EDIT: add your contact email here]
