Privacy Policy

This privacy policy applies to operationalthought.com (the “Site”), a personal website operated by Jason Goins. It describes what information is collected, how it is used, and your rights in relation to that information. Effective date: January 2026.

Information Collected

This Site collects limited information through two channels. If you submit a message through a contact form, the information you provide — typically your name, email address, and message content — is collected and stored for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. No information is collected from visitors who simply browse the Site without submitting a form.

The Site also uses analytics tools to collect aggregate, non-identifiable data about how visitors use the Site. This may include pages visited, time spent on the Site, browser type, and general geographic region. This data is used in aggregate and is not linked to individual visitors.

Cookies

The Site may use cookies — small files stored in your browser — to support basic site functionality and analytics. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Doing so may affect certain Site features.

How Information Is Used

Information submitted through contact forms is used solely to respond to the inquiry submitted. It is not shared with third parties, sold, or used for marketing purposes. Analytics data is used to understand how the Site is being used and to make improvements over time.

Third-Party Services

This Site may use Google Analytics to collect and process analytics data. Google Analytics operates under its own privacy policy, which can be reviewed at policies.google.com/privacy. You can opt out of Google Analytics data collection by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

The Site does not embed third-party advertising, social media tracking pixels, or affiliate links that collect visitor data.

Your Rights

You have the right to request access to any personal information held about you, to request correction of inaccurate information, and to request deletion of information you have submitted. To exercise any of these rights, please use the Connect page to send a request. Requests will be addressed promptly.

Data Retention

Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to respond to the inquiry and are not stored indefinitely. Analytics data is retained in accordance with the default retention settings of the analytics provider in use.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information through this Site, please contact via the Connect page and the information will be removed.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically. Changes will be reflected by a revised effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
