Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 8/7/26
1. What We Collect (and Why)
When you use Angry Letters, we collect a few things:
- Your name and email address (so we can verify it's you, send confirmations, and notify you about letter/reply activity).
- The name and mailing address of your Letter recipient (because the USPS doesn't do psychic deliveries).
- The content of the Letter you write (because that's the whole point).
- Security and anti-abuse metadata tied to letter sends and reply access.
We only collect what we need to get your message delivered and keep the platform from being abused.
2. Email Verification, Free-Send Checks, and Reply Access
Before a letter can be sent, your email must be verified.
We use verification status to protect account access, deliver transactional notices, and secure reply-view workflows.
For free-send eligibility and abuse prevention, we may store irreversible hashed fingerprints derived from verified sender email and normalized recipient address data.
In plain English: this is a one-way security marker to stop repeat abuse, not a secret dossier on you.
If a recipient replies and you choose to unlock access, payment metadata is processed by our payment provider. They handle the checkout machinery; we only receive the payment information needed to manage your unlock.
3. How We Use Your Info
We use your info to:
- Print and mail your Letter.
- Send you order, mailed-letter, and reply notifications.
- Protect against fraud, spam, and abuse.
- Improve Angry Letters so the world becomes a slightly less frustrating place.
We don't sell your information.
We don't rent it out.
We don't trade it for coffee or cheap favors.
4. Data Protection
We treat your data like we'd want ours treated... with respect and locked doors.
We use encryption and secure systems to protect your information.
But (because no system is 100% bulletproof) you use Angry Letters at your own risk.
If the internet falls apart tomorrow, it's not our fault. (Blame the robots.)
5. Cookies and Analytics
Yes, we use cookies, the digital kind. Not the chocolate chip kind (sadly).
Cookies help us:
- Remember who you are when you come back.
- Understand how people use the site so we can make it better.
- Not bombard you with the same pop-ups 1,000 times.
We use analytics tools (like PostHog) to understand how visitors use our site. This helps us improve the experience. We avoid sending unnecessary personal data in analytics events and respect your browser's Do Not Track setting.
You can block cookies in your browser settings if you want. Totally up to you.
6. Sharing Your Info
We only share your info with:
- USPS or mailing services (to actually deliver your Letter).
- Trusted service providers (like payment processors, hosting, notification, and fraud-prevention tools) who help run Angry Letters smoothly.
- Legal authorities when required by law or needed to prevent fraud/abuse.
Otherwise? Your info stays with us.
7. Your Rights
You have rights, and we respect them. At any time, you can:
- Ask us what info we have about you.
- Ask us to correct it.
- Ask us to delete it (as long as it doesn't mess with ongoing orders, legal obligations, or active fraud reviews).
Email us at support@angryletters.us and we'll respond without attitude.
8. Changes to This Policy
If we change anything major about how we handle your info, we'll let you know. We're not into sneaky fine print.
