Like a quiet mountain shrouded in mist, your presence here is respected and safeguarded. What is shared in trust shall not be scattered to the winds.
This Privacy Policy is not a rigid edict, but a reflection of the way in which information flows through this space. Walk with awareness, knowing what is gathered, how it is used, and how you may remain in harmony with it.
The Flow of Information (What We Collect)
Like a stream gathering rain, some information naturally flows into this space when you step upon the path. This includes:
- Basic Account Details â When you register, a name, email, and password are required to shape your presence here.
- Words You Share â Posts, replies, and edits form the ripples of your participation.
- Membership Offerings â If you support through Patreon or Stripe, we receive confirmation of your contribution to grant access to hidden teachings.
- Footsteps in the Garden â Logs of visits, device types, and general location (city-level) may be seen, like footprints in the sand, but no deeper trace is sought.
The Inner Chamber (How Information Is Used)
What is gathered is used only to sustain the natural order:
- To provide access to discussions, teachings, and collective wisdom.
- To grant entry to the Neidan Academy for supporting members.
- To maintain harmony and security within the community.
- To improve the experience, ensuring the river of discourse flows smoothly.
This information is not sold, bartered, or offered to outsiders. It remains within the bounds of this space.
The Art of Withdrawing (Control Over Your Data)
As the sage may leave the world behind, so too may you control your presence here:
- Adjust the Flow â Profile details, email preferences, and notification settings can be changed within your account.
- Fade into Mist â You may request deletion of your account and personal data by contacting master@neidan.app. Some contributions, like discussions that have shaped the path for others, may remain as echoes in the void.
- Step Beyond the Gate â If at any time you wish to depart, your data shall not be pursued beyond this space.
The Sealed Scroll (How Information Is Protected)
The way is safeguarded with care:
- Encryption â Passwords and sensitive information are veiled, unseen even by the keepers.
- Limited Access â Only those who tend the garden (admins and moderators) may access stored information, and only for the sake of maintaining balance.
- No Sharing Beyond the Circle â Your information is not given to third parties except where necessary (e.g., Patreon and Stripe for membership verification).
Shifting Winds (Changes to Privacy Policy)
As seasons change, so too may these guidelines. If adjustments are made, notice will be given. Continuing to walk this path after changes means you accept the new flow.
