Privacy without theatre.

Who controls the information?

Martin R. E. Cardoso, trading as LAlite, is the data controller for information submitted through this website. Privacy requests are handled by the LAlite team through the protected contact form; the private destination address is not displayed publicly.

What is collected and why?

• Subscriptions: email address, consent record, confirmation or unsubscribe tokens and relevant timestamps, used to send LAlite product news, corrections and toolkit updates.
• Contact messages: email address, message, delivery status and submission time, used to read and answer your enquiry.
• Security: normal technical request data may be processed temporarily by the hosting provider to operate and protect the service. For contact and subscription forms, the requesting address is converted into a salted one-way identifier, counted for abuse prevention, and deleted within 24 hours. It is not added to subscriber or message records.
• Human verification: the contact form creates a random, single-use verification record containing a non-reversible answer hash, issue time and expiry time. It expires after ten minutes and is removed automatically after its limited anti-abuse purpose has ended.

Lawful basis

Subscription emails rely on your consent. Handling a contact message relies on LAlite’s legitimate interest in responding to enquiries and maintaining accurate business correspondence.

Storage, sharing and retention

Website submissions are stored in a private Cloudflare-backed database. They are not published. When email delivery is active, a specialist transactional-email provider processes the address and message content needed to deliver confirmation, update or contact-notification emails. Subscriber information is kept until consent is withdrawn or the update service closes. Contact messages are normally retained for no longer than 12 months unless they are needed for an ongoing enquiry or legal obligation.

When you choose the “Buy on Gumroad” link, you leave this website. Gumroad then handles the purchase under its own privacy terms. LAlite does not receive your payment-card details.

Your choices and rights

You may withdraw marketing consent at any time. Confirmation and marketing emails provide a free one-click unsubscribe route. You may also use the protected website contact form to ask for access, correction, erasure, restriction or a copy of your information, or to object where applicable.

You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (opens in a new tab) if you believe personal information has been mishandled.
