Privacy Policy
How TheChosenVictor LLC handles website data, subscriber access, cookies, analytics, and legal privacy requests on TheChosenVictor.com.
On this page
01. Data Controller
TheChosenVictor LLC is the data controller for personal data processed through this website and its subscriber systems.
For any privacy-related questions or requests, contact [email protected].
02. Data We Collect
Email Address
If you subscribe to the newsletter, we collect your email address. Subscription is voluntary and requires confirmation (double opt-in).
Support and Feedback
If you send feedback or a bug report through one of our app support forms, we store the app name, category, message, submission source, timestamp, and a keyed HMAC-SHA256 pseudonym of your IP address when that secret is configured. You may also choose to include your email address and device information. We use this data to respond to the request, investigate the issue, and prevent abuse.
Service Inquiries
If you use a service inquiry form, we collect your name, email address, project or app name, and the details you choose to provide so we can assess and respond to the request. App Review Rescue requests also include the current App Review status. Service inquiries are delivered through Resend and are not added to the website database.
Google Ads Measurement
We also use the Google Ads tag to measure the performance of paid advertising campaigns for this website. The tag is configured with Consent Mode defaults that deny ad storage, ad user data, ad personalization, and analytics storage unless consent is provided. You can allow or limit Google Ads measurement and personalization from the site banner or the control below. Google may still receive limited technical information such as page URL, referrer, browser details, IP address, and campaign identifiers for measurement and fraud prevention under Google's own policies. When consent is allowed, TheChosenVictor LLC may share consented advertising and conversion signals with Google for ad measurement, optimization, remarketing, and Customer Match features. We do not upload customer lists unless the data source and required consent basis have been confirmed.
Newsletter signup collects only your email address and does not ask for advertising consent. Since October 2, 2026, an email address given through the newsletter form is used only for the newsletter and subscriber access. Before that date, newsletter forms offered an optional Customer Match checkbox; if you selected it and confirmed your subscription, we may include your email address in a Google Ads Customer Match upload. To withdraw that earlier consent, contact [email protected] or unsubscribe.
Google Ads preference
No preference saved
Free Browser Tools
Tool inputs and files are processed locally in your browser. They are not uploaded to our servers. If you use the recent-tools feature, your browser stores only the tool slug and the time you used it in local storage. You can remove that record through your browser settings.
IP Addresses
Raw IP addresses are processed in memory for rate limiting and are cleared automatically on an hourly cycle. When you submit an app support or feedback form, a keyed HMAC-SHA256 of the IP address is stored with the feedback record for abuse prevention. That value is a keyed pseudonym: it cannot be reversed without the secret, but it is not an unrecoverable one-way hash of the IP alone.
03. Cookies
This website uses two functional cookies for subscriber access. The Google Ads tag is configured not to store advertising or analytics cookies unless consent is provided through the Google Ads measurement and personalization preference.
| Cookie | Purpose | HttpOnly | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| vault_subscriber | Identifies confirmed newsletter subscribers to unlock gated vault content. HMAC-signed for integrity. | Yes | 1 year |
| vault_subscriber_ui | Client-readable flag so the UI can display subscriber state without additional server requests. | No | 1 year |
| Google Ads cookies | Used only if consent is provided for advertising measurement, ad personalization, or analytics storage. | No | Set by Google |
04. Third-Party Processors
We use Resend to deliver newsletter emails and route app support messages. When you subscribe, your email address is shared with Resend for newsletter delivery. When you send feedback, the submitted message and any optional contact details are sent through Resend to our support inbox. Service inquiries, including the contact and project details you submit, are also sent through Resend to our inbox. You can review Resend's privacy policy for details on how they handle data.
We also use Google Ads for campaign measurement. Google may process limited technical and advertising measurement data under its own policies. We do not use social media trackers, and we do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Cloudflare serves this site as our content delivery network and provides our page-view analytics. Cloudflare Web Analytics is cookieless: it sets no cookies, stores nothing in your browser, and does not build a profile of you or track you across sites. It records aggregate page views, referring sites, countries, and browsers. You can review Cloudflare's privacy policy for details on how they handle data.
05. Data Storage
Newsletter subscriber data and app feedback records are stored in a PostgreSQL database on a self-hosted virtual private server (Hetzner, EU/Germany). The server is maintained and secured by TheChosenVictor LLC. Service inquiries are not stored in that website database.
06. Data Retention
- Email addresses: Stored until you unsubscribe. Unsubscribing removes your email from the active subscriber database and clears the subscriber cookies. Email delivery providers may retain limited records as required for security, suppression, or legal compliance.
- Support and feedback: Stored while needed to address the request, maintain support history, and prevent abuse. You may ask us to delete a feedback record by contacting us from the email address associated with it.
- Service inquiries: Retained in our email support history only while needed to assess, respond to, and document the request. You may ask us to delete an inquiry by contacting us from the submitted email address.
- Rate limiting data: Raw IP addresses are processed in memory and cleared on an hourly cycle. Keyed HMAC IP pseudonyms submitted with feedback are retained with the corresponding feedback record.
07. Your Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Erasure: Request deletion of your data. For newsletter subscribers, unsubscribing removes the address from the active subscriber database.
- Portability: Request your data in a machine-readable format.
- Objection: Object to processing of your data.
To exercise any of these rights, contact [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

- Right to Know: You may request details about the personal information we collect and how it is used.
- Right to Delete: You may request deletion of your personal information.
