Privacy Policy

Last updated October 30, 2026

This policy explains what information KillisAI.com (“KillisAI”, “we”, “us”) collects and what we do with it. KillisAI is run by Killis Haraway DBA KillisAI, Memphis, Tennessee.

The short version

No ads, no tracking cookies, and no advertising or tracking scripts.
To count visits, we may use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and doesn’t track you across sites. It’s the only outside script the site may load.
We collect only what you choose to send us: your email address if you sign up for the newsletter, and your message if you use the contact form.
We never sell or rent your information.

What we collect and why

What: your email address.
Why: to send the weekly KillisAI digest, plus the one-time email that confirms your sign-up.
How it’s handled: sign-ups are stored in our own newsletter system (listmonk) on our web host, not with an outside email marketing company. You must confirm by email before anything is sent. We don’t track whether you open our emails or click their links, and we don’t record your IP address when you sign up.
Stopping: every email has an unsubscribe link. To have your address deleted completely, ask us through the Contact page.

Contact form

What: your name, email address, the topic you pick, and your message.
Why: to read and, if it makes sense, reply to your message.
How it’s handled: the form emails your message to Killis. It isn’t saved on the website’s server. It stays in Killis’s email inbox for up to 2 years.
Spam limits: to stop floods of automated messages, the server keeps a scrambled (one-way hashed) form of your IP address for about an hour, then discards it. It is never linked to your message.

Server logs

Like nearly every website, our web host’s server automatically records basic technical details of each visit: IP address, browser type, the page requested, and the time. These logs are used only for security and fixing problems, and are kept for as long as our web host, 20i, retains them under its standard log policy.

Visit counts (Cloudflare Web Analytics)

We may use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see how many people visit and which pages load slowly. When it is on, each page loads a small script from Cloudflare (static.cloudflareinsights.com) that sends Cloudflare:

the page address (without anything after a ”?”), and the site you came from, if your browser shares it;
your browser, operating system, and device type (for example “phone”);
your country, worked out from your IP address;
how long the page took to load (page speed measurements).

It sets no cookies, stores nothing on your device, and doesn’t build a profile of you or follow you across other websites. We see only totals, not individual visitors. Many ad blockers block this script; the site works the same either way. Cloudflare handles this data under the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Saved on your device only

If you pick a color theme (light, dark, or high contrast), your browser remembers it using local storage on your device. It is never sent to us.

What we don’t do

No cookies for tracking or advertising.
No advertising analytics or visitor profiling. Cloudflare Web Analytics, if on, reports only totals.
No outside fonts or embedded players, and no outside scripts other than Cloudflare Web Analytics. Video thumbnails are served from our own site, so viewing a page tells YouTube nothing. If you click through to YouTube or any other site, that site’s own privacy policy applies.

We don’t sell, rent, or trade personal information. It is shared only:

with Cloudflare, if Cloudflare Web Analytics is on, for the visit counts described above;
with our web host, which stores the site, the newsletter list, and server logs on our behalf;
with the email services that carry messages between you and us (for example, Killis’s email provider);
if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of people or the site.

Children

KillisAI isn’t directed to children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we’ll delete it.

Your choices

Unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email.
Ask what we have about you, or ask us to correct or delete it, through the Contact page. We’ll respond within 30 days.

Security

The site uses HTTPS, and we keep the information we collect to a minimum. No method of sending or storing data is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect what we have.

Changes

If this policy changes, we’ll update it here and change the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes will also be mentioned in the newsletter.
