Privacy Policy

The Last Bet Project ("we", "us") is a small, independent recovery project. Recovery is private work, and we treat your information the way we would want our own treated during the hardest chapter of our lives. This policy explains, in plain language, what we collect, why, and what we never do.

What we collect

When you buy the ebook or donate: your name and email address, so we can deliver your purchase and your receipt. Payment details (card numbers) go directly to Stripe, our payment processor — we never see, store, or touch your full card number.

When you join the newsletter: just your email address, so we can send recovery tips.

Automatically: basic, anonymized usage analytics (pages visited, approximate region) that help us understand whether the site is helping people.

How we use it

To deliver your ebook instantly by email, process your donation, send your receipt, and — only if you subscribed — send occasional recovery tips. That's the whole list.

What we never do

We never sell, rent, or share your personal information with marketers. We never publish purchase or donation records. We never email you about anything you didn't ask for. Your relationship with this project is nobody else's business.

Third-party services

We use Stripe to process payments securely (their privacy policy applies to payment data), a transactional email service to deliver orders, and privacy-respecting analytics to understand site traffic. Each receives only the minimum data needed to perform its function.

Your rights

You can ask us at any time to show you what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it entirely. Reply to any email from us and we will take care of it — no forms, no runaround. Newsletter emails include a one-click unsubscribe.

Data retention & security

We keep order records as long as needed for accounting and legal purposes. Data is stored with reputable cloud providers and access is limited to the small team running this project.

Changes

If this policy changes, the "last updated" date above will change. Material changes will be announced on this page.
