Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 27, 2026
The Simple Version
I respect your privacy. Any data collected through services I offer will not be sold, shared, or otherwise provided to anyone unless legally required to do so.
Data Collection
If you use any services I provide, I may collect minimal data necessary for the operation of those services. This could include:
- Log files for troubleshooting and security purposes
- Account information if you create an account
- Any data you voluntarily provide
Data Usage
Your data is used solely for:
- Operating and maintaining the services
- Improving service functionality
- Security and troubleshooting purposes
Data Sharing
I will not:
- Sell your data
- Share your data with third parties for marketing purposes
- Provide your data to anyone unless legally required (e.g., valid court order, subpoena)
DMARC Reporting
To be a good internet citizen while hosting my own mail server, I participate in DMARC aggregate (RUA) reporting. This means I send and receive standard DMARC reports to and from other mail providers to help fight email spoofing and abuse.
These reports contain only summary information — such as sending IP addresses, authentication results (SPF/DKIM/DMARC pass or fail), and message counts. They do not include the content, subject lines, or recipients of any email message. This data is used solely to combat abuse and improve mail security and deliverability.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Request what data I have about you
- Request deletion of your data
- Stop using any service at any time
Security
I make reasonable efforts to protect your data, but let’s be honest - this is a personal compute lab. See the main page for my track record on uptime and reliability.
Changes to This Policy
I may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page.

This privacy policy applies to all services offered by The Fat Hacker.
Disclaimer, as ever: this policy was written with the help of Claude Opus, and as ever I’ve read and approved every word. I am not a lawyer, this is not legal advice, and it’s a plain-language description of how a personal compute lab handles data - not an airtight legal contract. If you need the real thing, go pay someone who passed the bar.
