Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your information. Last updated June 2026.

Off Grid Living & Survival ("OGLS," "we," "us") runs a free daily email newsletter, a magazine library, and a website at offgridlivingsurvival.com. This policy explains what we collect and what we do with it. We keep it simple: we don't sell your data.

What we collect

  • Account & subscription info — your name, email address, and the topics you choose when you subscribe or create an account.
  • Engagement data — whether emails are opened and which links are clicked, so we can improve the newsletter and measure ad performance.
  • Usage data — basic, standard log data (IP address, browser type, pages viewed) when you visit the site.
  • Advertiser data — if you advertise with us, the business and campaign details, creative, and billing information you provide.

How we use it

  • To send you the newsletter and the content you signed up for.
  • To operate, secure, and improve the service.
  • To measure and report advertising performance (in aggregate to advertisers — never your personal identity).
  • To respond to your messages and support requests.

Cookies & tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality, login sessions, and analytics. Our emails include standard open- and click-tracking. Advertisers who use our optional tracking snippet on their own sites are responsible for disclosing it in their own privacy policies.

Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with trusted service providers who help us run the service (for example, our email delivery and payment providers), under appropriate confidentiality terms, and when required by law. Advertisers receive only aggregate performance metrics.

Your choices

  • Unsubscribe anytime with the one-click link in every email.
  • Update your topics from any issue's preferences link.
  • Access or delete your data — email us and we'll help.

Data retention & security

We keep your information only as long as needed to provide the service and meet legal obligations, and we use reasonable safeguards to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

Children

The service is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time; the "last updated" date above will change accordingly. Continued use of the service means you accept the current version.
