Privacy
Brierpoint has no accounts, no advertising and no analytics or tracking scripts. Its one form is the weekly digest sign-up. This page sets out the little that is processed, and who processes it.

Who is responsible
Brierpoint is responsible for this site and for the information described here. You can reach it at ronan@brierpoint.com.
What happens when you visit
Like any website, your browser sends some technical information with each request: your IP address, your browser and device type, and the page you asked for.
- Cloudflare sits in front of Brierpoint to deliver pages and protect the site from attacks. It processes this request information under its own privacy policy, and it may set a cookie used only for security, such as telling people apart from bots.
- Brierpoint's server answers the request. It does not keep a log of visits and never stores IP addresses. The one exception is the "Trade on Polymarket" link: when you follow it, the server records the time, which link and your browser type, but not your IP address, so Brierpoint can count clicks. These records are deleted after 14 days; only daily totals are kept. If a page fails, the error is recorded so it can be fixed; those records do not include your IP address.
Brierpoint does not use this information to identify you, build a profile of you or sell anything about you.
Cookies and local storage
Brierpoint itself sets no cookies. If you choose a light or dark theme, that choice is saved in your browser's local storage. It stays on your device and is never sent to Brierpoint.
The weekly digest
If you sign up for the weekly digest, your email address is sent to Resend, the service that sends Brierpoint's email, so it can send you a confirmation link. You are added to the list only after you click that link; if you don't, nothing more is sent. Brierpoint's own database does not store your address: the list is held by Resend, which is based in the United States, under its own privacy policy, and records whether each email was delivered.
Your address is used only to send the digest and messages about it. It is never sold or shared with advertisers. Every digest has an unsubscribe link. To have your address deleted from the list entirely, email ronan@brierpoint.com.
If you email Brierpoint
Your email address and message are used only to reply to you, and kept only as long as that needs, or longer where the law requires it.
Market data is not personal data
Prices, order books and market rules on Brierpoint are public Polymarket market data. Brierpoint does not show or analyse individual wallets or traders.
Links to other sites
Explanations link to news articles and other sites. Those sites have their own privacy practices, which this page does not cover.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act or the EU's GDPR), you may have the right to ask what personal data Brierpoint holds about you, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted. Email ronan@brierpoint.com. Because Brierpoint keeps almost nothing, most requests will be about emails you have sent. You can also complain to your local data-protection authority.
Children
Brierpoint is not intended for anyone under 18.
Changes
Before Brierpoint adds advertising or accounts, this page will be updated to cover them, and the date above will change. See also the Terms of use.
