Privacy Policy
This is plain-English boilerplate. If you need legalese for a specific jurisdiction, drop me an email and I'll point you at it.
Who I am
Northline is a DBA of Psili Labs LLC, operated by Ash Marbeadle out of Kodiak, Alaska. This policy covers northline.design only.
What I collect
Contact form
When you fill out the contact form, I collect your name, email address, and the message you typed. That's it. There's also a hidden honeypot field that traps automated submissions before they ever leave your browser; real users never interact with it.
Analytics
The site uses Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights. These tools record page views, general geographic region (country or state-level), browser type, and performance timing. No IP addresses are stored. No individual is tracked across sessions. Vercel's data processing is covered by their own privacy policy.
What I don't collect
No accounts. No payments. No third-party advertising trackers. No Facebook Pixel, no Google Analytics, no retargeting of any kind.
Why I collect it
Form submissions exist so I can respond to your inquiry. Analytics exist so I can tell whether the site loads fast and which pages people actually read. Neither dataset is sold or used for advertising.
Where it goes
Contact form submissions POST to the Psili Labs ops hub and land in a Supabase database that only I can access. I read them, respond, and keep them for reference. Vercel Analytics data lives in Vercel's infrastructure under their standard data retention terms.
How long I keep it
Form submissions stay in the database until I delete them. If a conversation goes nowhere after a few months, I clear it. If we worked together, I keep the record for as long as it's useful to have context about the project, typically a few years. Analytics aggregates are kept by Vercel per their retention schedule.
Cookies
This site does not set its own cookies. Vercel may set cookies for analytics or performance purposes. I don't control those directly; check Vercel's policy for details.
Your data rights
If you want to know what I have on you, ask me to delete it, or correct something, email me at hello@northline.design. I'll handle it within a few business days.
Changes to this policy
If something significant changes, I'll update the date at the top of this page. No email blast. If you're checking back, that date is the fastest signal.
