Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
Effective September 23, 2026
This policy describes howlovelands.com, operated by How Love Lands. How Love Lands is the operator of this site. There is no separate business entity yet. Questions and privacy requests go to admin@howlovelands.com.
This policy is written for a California audience, including the California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA). It describes only the data flows in the site as published.
Information you can send us
If you email admin@howlovelands.com, we receive the address you send from, your message, and any attachments you include. We use that email to read your request and reply. We keep it in the mailbox that receives messages at that address until you ask us to delete it or we no longer need it to respond.
Find, on your device
HLL Find asks you to choose from fixed options. It does not ask you to type a story. The choices are a safety check (No, Yes, or I’m not sure) and seven questions: what feels hardest, up to two related topics, who it is for, what would feel useful, what kind of help feels realistic, what you are prepared to spend, and how much you are ready to take on. If you start from a suggested line on the home page, the label of that line is stored with those choices.
Those choices stay on this device, in this browser tab, under the session storage key hll.find.v1. The page uses them in your browser to choose a starting point. They are not sent to How Love Lands. Closing the tab clears them. Retake Find clears them. There is no account.
While the page is open, the browser also keeps a short in-memory note of events such as starting Find, viewing a question number, finishing Find, viewing results, and focusing the newsletter field. That note can include the page route and a question number. It does not include your selected answers. If results are shown, a separate in-memory note can include the route the matcher chose and, if you click a resource, the resource id and the primary need you selected. Nothing calls an analytics service with those notes. They are discarded when you leave or reload the page. They are not written to local storage.
Landing Notes
The footer form asks for an email address so you can continue to Beehiiv. Choosing Continue checks that the address looks like an email, then opens https://newsletter.howlovelands.com/subscribe in a new tab. The address you typed is not added to that link and is not sent to Beehiiv or to How Love Lands by this page. You enter it again on Beehiiv if you want to subscribe. Beehiiv then handles that signup under Beehiiv’s own practices. The address remains in the form on this page until you clear it or leave.
Fonts and images
Pages load typefaces from Google Fonts. That requests a stylesheet from fonts.googleapis.com and font files from fonts.gstatic.com. Your browser sends Google the ordinary connection data for that request, including your IP address and the site origin. Photographs on the pages are embedded in the page as data URIs. They are not loaded from a third-party image host.
Recommendations
If you open a recommended resource, your browser goes to that resource’s site. Some of those links are affiliate links. The other site’s privacy practices apply once you arrive. Affiliate status does not determine the match.
Hosting
Cloudflare hosts the site. Delivering a page can involve Cloudflare processing connection data such as IP address, date and time, and the URL requested. We use that hosting to operate and protect the site. We do not use it to advertise to you.
Cookies
The site does not set cookies. Details of session storage and the Google Fonts request are in the Cookie Policy.
Sale and sharing
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use personal information for targeted advertising.

How to make a request
Email admin@howlovelands.com with the right you want to use. An authorized agent may email for you with evidence that you authorized them.

If we need more time, we will tell you why and may take up to another 45 days.
If we deny a request, you may reply to that email and ask us to reconsider. We will explain the result in writing.

The site is for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has emailed us, write to admin@howlovelands.com and we will delete that message.
Changes
If the site starts collecting or sending information in a new way, we will update this page and its effective date before relying on the new practice.
