Email collection notice
What happens when you choose to hear from Flared.
Effective 17 September 2026 · Notice version 2026-09-17-v1
What you are choosing
Optional emails with Flared news, practical resources and product updates. Signing up is free and does not create an app account or start a paid plan. If you do not sign up, you can still browse the website and use any Flared features available to you.
What we collect and why
We collect your email address to deliver the emails you request. We record your consent wording and version, request and confirmation times, subscription status and link tokens to manage your choices. A short-lived hashed network identifier and request counts help limit misuse. We do not ask for your name, condition or health information.
How confirmation works
Tick the consent box and submit your email address. We send a confirmation link valid for 48 hours. You join the list only after you open that link and press Confirm my email. Unconfirmed requests are scheduled for deletion after seven days, with a short delay for automatic deletion. A confirmed subscriber receives a welcome email and may receive occasional updates.
Where your details go
Flared is operated by A.J. Brough & S.W. Brough (ABN 25 653 810 683), NSW 2155, Australia. We use Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon Simple Email Service in the AWS Sydney region. Email delivery and your own email provider can involve processing outside Australia. The mailing list is separate from app accounts and private health information. We do not sell the list or use email open-tracking pixels.
Your choices stay yours
Every update includes a free unsubscribe link that works without logging in. Unsubscribing removes your email from the active subscription record and stops future updates. Limited consent and withdrawal evidence is retained for up to three years, with encrypted backup ageing of up to 35 days. Your app account and membership are unaffected.
For access, correction, deletion, complaints or help unsubscribing, email hello@flared.cloud. Our Privacy Policy explains retention, overseas processing and complaint options in more detail.
