Astro-Log asks for something unusually personal — the date, time and place you were born — because there is no way to compute your chart without it. This page says plainly what we hold, who touches it, and how to make it go away.
What we collect
- Your name and email. The name is used to address your brief; the email is how it reaches you and how you sign in.
- Your birth date, birth time and birthplace (including the coordinates and timezone of that place). This is the input to your natal chart and nothing else.
- Your current timezone and preferred delivery hour, so the brief lands in your morning rather than ours.
- Notification subscriptions, if you turn notifications on — one record per browser or device, containing the push endpoint your browser issues and the keys needed to encrypt a message to it.
- Which briefs were sent to you and when, so we don't send the same morning twice.
- Your usefulness rating, if you answer whether a brief helped you plan. We store the brief date and your choice (yes, somewhat or no), not a claim that a prediction came true.
- Subscription records, including Stripe customer and subscription identifiers, plan, status and billing period. We do not receive or store your full card number.
We do not ask for a password. Signing in works by emailing you a single-use link that expires in fifteen minutes.
Who else touches it
We keep the list short deliberately. Each of these gets the minimum needed to do its job:
- Turso — the database your account lives in.
- Resend — sends your briefs and sign-in links. Receives your email address and the content of the brief.
- Anthropic — turns the computed chart data into readable prose. Receives your first name and the filtered astrology payload for that day. It does not receive your email address, your birth time, your birthplace or your coordinates.
- Vercel — hosts the site, and provides privacy-preserving traffic analytics that set no cookies and build no cross-site profile.
- Stripe — handles checkout, subscription management, invoices and payment methods. Stripe receives the billing details you enter on its hosted pages and sends us the subscription status needed to provide paid access.
- Your browser's push service (Apple, Google or Mozilla, depending on your device) — carries notifications to you. The notification text passes through it, encrypted.
- Open-Meteo— when you type a city into the signup form, your browser asks Open-Meteo's geocoding service to turn it into coordinates. That request goes directly from your device.
We do not sell your data, we do not share it with advertisers, and we do not use it to build a profile of you for anyone else's purposes.
Gifts
If someone gifts you a subscription, they are never asked for your birth details and never shown them. You enter your own, through your own link. The person who paid learns nothing about your chart.
Compatibility readings
A compatibility reading compares two charts, so it only exists once both people have entered their own birth details themselves. Nobody can enter them on your behalf, and we will not build a chart for a person who did not supply their own data.
Both people see the finished reading, which names the placements it is based on — so the other person will see which sign each of your planets is in, the same way you will see theirs. We tell you this before you submit anything, because it is the whole point of the exercise and not something to discover afterwards.
If you fill in a compatibility link without having an account, you are not signed up for anything. Your details are stored only to compute that one reading. We do not add you to the daily email, and you do not become a subscriber unless you separately choose to. Either person can ask us to delete a reading, which removes it for both.
Golden tickets and referrals
We record which account claimed a golden ticket and which account was issued each share link. This prevents a link being spent twice and prevents self-referral. The person sharing a ticket can see whether that link was claimed, but not the friend's email, birth details, chart, briefs, or account activity.
Cookies
We use a session cookie to keep you signed in for thirty days. We may also use short-lived first-party attribution cookies when you arrive through a creator or reader referral link, so the right person gets credit if you sign up. There are no advertising cookies and we do not use these cookies to follow you across other sites. Stripe may set its own cookies on the hosted checkout and billing pages it operates.
How long we keep it
Your account data stays for as long as your account does. Briefs we have written for you stay in your archive so you can read them back. If you unsubscribe, delivery stops but your account remains until you delete it yourself in settings.
Getting rid of it
Every email has a one-click unsubscribe that needs no login. To delete the account and the birth data behind it, sign in and use Delete your accountat the bottom of your settings page. It runs immediately and needs nobody's approval: your birth details, chart, briefs, reports, archive, push devices and sign-in are removed, along with any usefulness ratings you gave; any compatibility reading you are part of is removed for both people, and a live subscription is cancelled first — if that cancellation fails, we delete nothing and tell you, rather than leaving you paying for an account that is gone.
Two things deliberately survive it, and neither describes you: the log of payment events Stripe has sent us, which is keyed by event number and is what stops a payment being processed twice, and the record that a gift or golden ticket was bought and spent — someone else's purchase and receipt, with the pointer to you removed. If you cannot sign in, ask through our support form using the address you signed up with and we will do it for you.
Children
Astro-Log is not intended for anyone under 16, and we don't knowingly collect birth data from them.
Changes
If this page changes in a way that affects what we do with your data, the date at the top changes and we'll say so by email rather than quietly editing it.
