The Institute of Existential Technology ("IET," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you visit our website and submit your email address for launch notifications.
We collect only your email address when you voluntarily submit it via the notification signup form on this website. We do not ask for your name, location, or any other personal information through this form. Kit may automatically record technical information associated with your submission, such as your IP address and the date and time you signed up. Our website host (Netlify) may also keep standard server logs, including IP addresses, for security and operational purposes. This page loads its typefaces from Google Fonts, so your browser connects to Google's servers to retrieve them, and Google may receive your IP address as part of that request.
Your email address is used solely to:
We will never use your email address for any other purpose without your explicit consent.
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and processing your email address is your freely given, informed consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing.
We use double opt-in: after you submit your email address, Kit sends you a confirmation email, and you are subscribed only once you click the confirmation link. If you do not confirm, you will not be added to our list.
Your email address is stored securely by Kit (formerly ConvertKit, Inc.), our email subscriber management service provider. Kit maintains appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data. You can review Kit's privacy practices at kit.com/privacy.
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise share your personal information with third parties, except:

Your email address may be stored on servers located in the United States. If you are accessing this website from outside the US, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the US, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.
