Privacy Policy

Overview

PassiveAggressiveEmails.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, your choices regarding cookies and advertising, and your rights under applicable privacy laws including the GDPR (European Union/EEA/UK) and the CCPA/CPRA (California).

Information We Collect

Usage Data

With your consent, we collect usage data through Google Analytics, including pages viewed, features used, and general interaction patterns. This helps us improve the product. Analytics cookies are not placed until you accept them via our cookie banner or cookie settings.

Generated Content

When you use our email generator, we may temporarily process the inputs you provide (recipient type, situation, tone level) to generate results. Custom emails are generated using AI. We do not store your generation inputs beyond the immediate request-response cycle.

Shared Emails

If you choose to share a generated email, the content is stored to enable the share URL functionality. Shared emails are public and accessible via their unique URL. As no user accounts exist, shared content is not associated with any identifiable individual.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use essential cookies for site functionality (such as theme preference and language selection). With your consent, we also use:

• Analytics cookies — Google Analytics to understand how our site is used
• Advertising cookies — Google AdSense to display ads and measure ad performance

You can manage your preferences at any time using Cookie Settings in the site footer. We implement Google Consent Mode v2 so that analytics and advertising tags respect your choices.

This site also contains affiliate links to third-party products and services. When you navigate to external sites through these links, those sites may set their own cookies and track your activity according to their own privacy policies.

Third-Party Services

• Google Analytics — usage analytics. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy. Opt out via Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Google AdSense — display advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. Learn more at How Google uses cookies in advertising. Manage ad personalization at Google Ads Settings.
• AI services — custom email generation
• Vercel — hosting and infrastructure
• Affiliate and advertising partners — display ads and affiliate programs

Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process personal data on the following bases:

• Consent — for analytics and advertising cookies (Google Analytics and Google AdSense)
• Legitimate interests — for site security, fraud prevention, and improving our service, balanced against your rights
• Contractual necessity — to provide the email generation service you request

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Restrict or object to certain processing
• Withdraw consent at any time (via Cookie Settings) without affecting prior lawful processing
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

To exercise these rights, contact us at hi@PassiveAggressiveEmails.com. Since no user accounts exist, we may not be able to identify analytics data tied to a specific individual.

California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):

• Right to know — what personal information we collect, use, and disclose
• Right to delete — request deletion of personal information we hold about you
• Right to opt out of sale or sharing — we use Google Analytics and Google AdSense, which may involve “sharing” of device and usage data for cross-context behavioral advertising under CPRA
• Right to non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: Use the link in our site footer or cookie banner to opt out. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where supported by your browser.

We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. We may share data with advertising and analytics partners as described above. California residents may contact hi@PassiveAggressiveEmails.com to submit a verifiable consumer request.

Data Retention

Shared email URLs and their content are retained indefinitely. Analytics data is retained per the default settings of Google Analytics. We do not store custom generation inputs beyond the immediate request-response cycle. Cookie consent preferences are stored locally in your browser until you clear them or change your settings.

International Transfers

Your data may be processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers from the EEA/UK.

Children

This service is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
