Privacy
The short version: this site collects almost nothing, tracks nothing, and sells nothing. Here's the whole picture.
Change the World, LLC (Nate St. Pierre), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Questions about anything on this page: nate@natestpierre.me.
This is a plain, static website. It runs no analytics, no ad trackers, and sets no cookies. There are no accounts, no sign-ins, and no forms that submit anywhere.
Two pieces of ordinary web plumbing do see your visit, the same way they do on most of the internet:
The newsletter runs on MailerLite. Signing up hands over exactly what you type: your email address. It's used for the occasional update when there's something worth saying, and for nothing else. Every email has an unsubscribe link that works immediately, and your address is never sold, rented, or shared.
Checkout is handled entirely by Stripe — their checkout, their vault. Your card details go to Stripe and never touch this site or Nate's systems. What Nate receives from a purchase: your name, your email, what you bought, and your answer to the optional "who sent you?" question. That's used to deliver the product, honor your purchase, and stay in touch about it — nothing more.
One thing Nate's own infrastructure does hold: the activation desk — your activation code, your purchase email, your seat status, and the runtime key that powers your AI. It's the same information any store keeps about a sale, and it's what turns your copy on. Want it gone after your seat ends? Ask — see "Your data, your call," below.
Stripe may act as the merchant of record for your purchase (your receipt says so plainly); Stripe's own privacy policy governs what it collects at checkout.
Your message lands in a normal mailbox and gets treated like normal correspondence: it's read, it's answered, it's kept as long as it's useful. It isn't fed into anything, and it isn't shared.
Worth saying even though it's about the product, not this site: nothing you do in Forge passes through Nate. The app doesn't phone home — no telemetry, no usage data. Your files live in a folder on your machine, and your AI conversations travel directly between your computer and the AI provider, on U.S.-based servers under zero-data-retention policies. There is no server of Nate's in that path: he couldn't read your prompts, your files, or your outputs if he wanted to.
The one thing Nate's side can see is the gas meter: your usage as dollar totals — how much, never what. That's the mechanism behind the fuel gauge and the no-surprise-bills promise.
Want to know what exists about you here, or want it gone? Email nate@natestpierre.me and it'll be handled personally — usually the same day. (The one caveat: purchase records that tax law requires keeping are kept for as long as it requires.)
If any of this ever changes, this page changes with it, along with the date below. The spirit won't: collect as little as possible, do as little with it as possible, and say so plainly.
