Privacy policy

Last updated: April 18, 2026

This is the privacy policy for Edgefall Studios (edgefallstudios.com), the Edgefall Studios Patreon campaign once it goes live, and any software I distribute under the Edgefall Studios brand.

Edgefall Studios is the trade name of Edgefall LLC, a New York limited liability company that I'm the sole member of. Throughout this policy, "I" and "me" refer to me, Chris McGowen, the human running everything; "Edgefall" refers to the LLC where the company name is the right level of formality.

What I collect

• This website (edgefallstudios.com) is a static marketing site. It does not collect personal information directly through forms or analytics on the page itself.
• Cloudflare (my CDN, DNS, and edge security provider) collects standard server logs — IP address, user agent, request timestamp — for security and performance purposes. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
• If you contact me at hello@edgefallstudios.com or chris@edgefallstudios.com, I retain your email address and the contents of your message in my email provider (Google Workspace) along with any reply correspondence.
• If you support Edgefall Studios on Patreon once that page is live, Patreon collects and processes your information; their privacy policy applies. Edgefall receives limited information about patrons (name or username, tier, lifetime support, country for tax purposes) for the purpose of fulfilling benefits and providing support.
• For internal automation (e.g., posting updates, pulling patron lists, tracking subscriber counts), I use the Patreon API with credentials scoped to my own campaign. I do not access patron data beyond what the Patreon API exposes to creators about their own campaign.
• If you purchase software from Edgefall Studios through any third-party storefront, the order is handled by that storefront. I receive aggregate sales data and the account name you used (so I can support you), but not your payment details.

What I do with it

• Email correspondence. I reply to your message. Messages are retained in my email archive for my records.
• Patron information. I use it to provide subscriber benefits, send patron-only posts, respond to support requests, and meet tax/business records requirements.
• I do not sell your data to third parties.
• I do not use your data for advertising or retargeting.

Cookies and tracking

• This website does not set first-party cookies of its own.
• Cloudflare may set its own technical cookies (e.g., for bot detection or DDoS mitigation). See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
• I do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar third-party tracking on this site.

Your rights

• If you are a US resident, you may request a copy of any personal data I hold about you, ask me to correct it, or ask me to delete it. Email hello@edgefallstudios.com.
• If you are an EU/UK resident, the GDPR / UK GDPR applies. The same address handles your requests.
• If you are a California resident, the CCPA applies. The same address handles your requests.

Children

Edgefall Studios products are intended for adults. I do not knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 13.

Changes to this policy

I may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above will reflect the most recent change. Material changes will be communicated via the Patreon page and email where appropriate.
