Privacy policy

When you join the waitlist

• Your email address, stored in lowercase
• The time you joined and which form on the site you used
• Where you came from: the campaign tags on the link you followed, the site that linked to us (without its query string) and the first page you landed on
• Your answers, if you choose to tell us how many agents you run and which tools you use
• Your personal invite code and, if you joined through a friend’s link, that friend’s code
• A record of which emails we have sent you and whether you have unsubscribed

When you share a yare-doctor card

Only if you press s (or o) under yare-doctor card: the numbers on the card (health score and grade, number of agent sessions, memory held by agents, leftover processes, findings, your Mac’s chip and memory size, and the yare-doctor version), the time it was shared and a random id for its link. Nothing that names you, your Mac, your files or your commands. Anyone with the link can see the card.

When you write to us

Your message and the address you wrote from.

What we do not collect

We do not store your IP address. To limit abuse, the server briefly counts sign-up and card requests per IP address in memory; that count is never written to our database and is discarded when the server restarts. We do not collect payment details, and we do not build advertising profiles.

We use your email address to:

• send you a welcome message when you join
• send occasional updates about Yare and about your place on the waitlist
• reply when you write to us

We do not sell your email address, rent it out or share it with advertisers. We do not use it for anything else.

The details about where you came from help us see which links bring people to the site. They stay in our own records and are not shared.

Everyone on the waitlist gets a personal invite link. When someone joins through your link, we record that connection so we can work out your place on the list. You can see how many people joined through your link, but never who they are.

We set two first-party cookies, each lasting 90 days:

• yare_attr holds the campaign tags, the referring site (without its query string) and the landing page from your first visit
• yare_ref holds the invite code from a friend’s link, if you arrived through one

If you join the waitlist, these values are saved with your email. We do not use them for advertising and we do not share them. You can delete both cookies in your browser at any time.

We also use Vercel Web Analytics for aggregated page-view statistics. It does not set cookies and does not follow you from site to site.

We use a small number of service providers, who process data only to run the service for us:

• Vercel hosts the site and provides its analytics
• Neon hosts the database that holds the waitlist
• Resend delivers the emails we send

Our providers operate in the United States and elsewhere, so your information may be processed outside the country where you live. They rely on recognised safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, where the law requires them.

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your email address with your consent, which you give by joining the waitlist and can withdraw at any time by unsubscribing. We rely on our legitimate interest in understanding where visitors come from and keeping the site secure for the attribution details, analytics and abuse limits described above.

We keep your waitlist record until you ask us to delete it or the waitlist closes, whichever comes first. If you unsubscribe, we keep your address on a do-not-email list so that we never contact you again. The yare_attr and yare_ref cookies expire after 90 days.

• Unsubscribe. Every email we send has a one-click unsubscribe link.
• Access, correct or delete. Ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, to fix it, or to delete it.
• Object or withdraw consent. Tell us to stop using your information at any time.
• Complain. You can contact your local data protection authority if you are not happy with how we handled a request.

To make a request, reply to any email we have sent you. We will reply within 30 days.

We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act. California residents can ask us to disclose, correct or delete their personal information, and we will not treat anyone differently for making a request.

All traffic to the site uses HTTPS, the waitlist is held in a managed database, and only the people running Yare can read it. No system is perfectly secure, but we limit what we collect so there is less to protect.

The site is not directed to anyone under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you think a child has joined the waitlist, reply to any email we have sent you and we will delete the record.

We will update this page when our practices change and revise the date at the top. If a change is significant, we will also tell the people on the waitlist by email.
