Privacy Policy & Digital Data Governance
This Privacy Policy explains how Macro Circuit ("Macro Circuit," "we," "us," or "our"), operating https://macrocircuitfactory.com, collects, uses, safeguards, and discloses information when you access our financial intelligence terminal, interactive calculators, macroeconomic dossiers, and email briefing service.
1. Information We Collect
A. Calculator Inputs (Processed Locally in Your Browser): Values you enter into our Purchasing Power & Inflation Autopsy Lab (such as annual income, monthly core expenses, and housing/escrow amounts) are calculated client-side inside your web browser. We do not transmit or store your personal household budget slider values on our servers.
B. Voluntary Newsletter Subscriptions: When you subscribe via our Subscribe Free forms (/api/subscribe), we collect your submitted email address, subscription timestamp, source page path, and standard Cloudflare edge routing metadata solely to deliver Macro Circuit research briefings and prevent automated abuse. We never sell, rent, or broker subscriber email lists to third parties.
C. Standard Edge Server Logs & Security Telemetry: Our infrastructure runs on Cloudflare's global edge network, which processes standard technical request data (IP address, browser user-agent, TLS cipher, and referring URL) to defend against DDoS attacks, enforce rate limits, and optimize sub-200ms content delivery.
