Privacy Policy

The short version

Happy Genius collects the information you give us through the contact form, newsletter signup, Milk Run intro form, and contractor pilot form on this site. That can include your name, business name, email, and whatever you write in a message. Contractor pilot requests may also include your trade, approximate open-estimate volume, current software, phone number, workflow details, and consent to follow up. We use it to respond to you, follow up about working together, or send the occasional Happy Genius update when you opt in. We don't sell it, we don't run ads with it, and we don't track you around the internet with it.

What we collect

When you submit the contact form, we collect your name, business name (if you give one), email address, and business type, the repetitive task you describe, current tools, desired outcome, budget range, timeline, and message. When you join the newsletter, we collect your email address, optional first name, and consent to receive occasional emails. When you ask about Milk Run, we may also collect your cafe name, phone, location, workflow details, and consent for us to follow up. If you ask about the contractor pilot, we may collect your trade, approximate estimate volume, current software, phone, workflow details, and consent for us to follow up. There's no account to create.

How we use it

We use contact submissions to respond to your inquiry, follow up about a consultation, and keep a record of the conversation so we're not asking you to repeat yourself. Newsletter signups are used to send occasional updates, while Milk Run requests are used to respond to cafe operations inquiries and schedule an introduction. Contractor pilot requests are used to review fit, schedule a consultation, and manage the agreed pilot scope. We do not automatically enroll Milk Run or contractor pilot requests in the newsletter.

Newsletter signups are used to send occasional updates and new guides. You can unsubscribe by emailing us directly. Contact submissions also send a short automatic confirmation email.

Where it's stored

Contact, newsletter, Milk Run, and contractor pilot submissions are stored on Cloudflare's infrastructure (specifically Cloudflare Workers KV), the same platform this site runs on. If you'd like your information removed or want to unsubscribe, email hello@happygenius.ca and we'll review the request. Some information may need to be retained for legal, accounting, warranty, security, or dispute-resolution purposes.

Who else sees it

A few outside services help run this site and are worth being upfront about:

• Cloudflare hosts the site and stores contact form, newsletter, Milk Run, and contractor pilot submissions.
• Resend sends notification emails when you submit a newsletter, Milk Run, or contractor pilot request, and sends a confirmation email for contact-form submissions.
• Calendly powers the booking widget if you schedule a consultation through it. Calendly has its own privacy policy covering that part of the process.
• Google Fonts serves the typefaces used on this site, which involves a request to Google's servers when the page loads.

None of these get access to your information beyond what's needed to do their specific job.

What we don't do

This site doesn't use analytics, tracking cookies, or advertising pixels. We're not watching how you use this site, and we're not selling or renting your information to anyone.

Your rights

You can ask what we have on file, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, subject to legal and operational limits, by emailing hello@happygenius.ca. We'll verify the request, search the relevant systems, and explain any information that must be retained.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes in any meaningful way, we'll update the date at the top of this page. The revised policy applies prospectively to information collected after the effective date, subject to any notice or consent requirements that apply.
