How we handle your data
Last updated 12 June 2026
The Human Design is a small, independent site. We collect the minimum needed to do one thing well: calculate your chart and, if you ask for it, email it to you. Nothing is sold, rented, or shared for marketing. Not to anyone, ever.
What we store, and when
- Calculating a chart on the site stores nothing on our server. Your birth details are kept in your own browser (localStorage) so the forms remember you; clearing your browser data removes them.
- Chart links contain the birth details they display; that's what makes them work on any device. Share them as thoughtfully as you'd share the birth data itself.
- Asking for your chart by email stores your email address and the birth details for that chart (date, time, place coordinates, timezone) in our database, after you confirm your address (double opt-in). If you tick the daily Energy Weather digest, we record that preference too.
- Ordinary server logs (IP address, requested page, time) exist briefly for security and troubleshooting, as on virtually every website.
What we send
Only what you asked for: a confirmation email, your chart email, and (if you opted in) the daily Energy Weather digest. Every email footer has an unsubscribe link. Email delivery runs through SMTP2GO, which processes the message and address on our behalf to deliver it.
Visit counting
We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are actually useful, so we know what to improve. It collects the kind of technical data analytics tools usually do (page, browser, rough location). On the chart pages we pin the address it reports to the bare page, with no query details, so birth data from chart links never reaches Google. No advertising features, no audience building; just counts.
Your controls
- Unsubscribe: one click in any email stops all sending.
- Delete everything: the unsubscribe page offers "delete my data completely", which removes your email and birth details from our records immediately.
- Questions or manual requests: write to [email protected] and a human will sort it out.
Where it lives
Our database sits on the same server that runs this site, outside the public web root. We keep your details only while you're subscribed; the full-deletion link removes them at once.
