Privacy, in
plain language.

Who to contact

ThrottleUp US operates this website and launch list. For privacy questions or a deletion request, email hello@throttleup.us.

What we collect and why

When you sign up, we store your email address, the time and version of your consent, and a hash of a random confirmation and removal token. We use this information to record your request, send a confirmation email and one launch announcement, and let you remove your signup. Signing up does not create a study account or subscribe you to a newsletter.

For abuse prevention, the signup service stores a hashed rate-limit key derived from your IP address, rather than the raw address. Cloudflare, our hosting and security provider, can process IP addresses, device or browser information, and request data to deliver the website and protect it from abuse.

Security checks, cookies, and tracking

The signup form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help distinguish people from automated submissions. Turnstile processes technical information and may use security-related browser storage. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy ↗. We have not added advertising trackers or analytics to these coming-soon pages.

Who receives your information

We use service providers, including Cloudflare, to host the website, store the signup list, protect the service, and deliver email. We do not sell the launch list or share it for another company’s marketing. Information may also be disclosed when legally required or necessary to protect the service and its users. Service providers may process information in countries other than your own.

How long we keep it

Unconfirmed requests expire after 24 hours. Confirmed launch signups expire after 365 days unless you remove yours earlier. Expired records are deleted by an hourly cleanup, within the next hour. If we send the launch announcement before then, we will delete the launch list within 30 days of sending it. Security rate-limit records are kept separately for abuse prevention and are not used for marketing.

Change your mind

Your confirmation email includes a personal removal link. Keep it somewhere safe: anyone with that link can remove the associated signup. Opening the link does not remove you automatically; you confirm on the removal page. You can also request deletion by emailing hello@throttleup.us from the address you used. We may ask you to verify control of the address before acting.

Young visitors

ThrottleUp US is intended for learners aged 16 and over. This launch list is not directed to children under 13. Do not submit an email address if you are under 13. If a child’s information has been submitted, contact us so we can remove it.

About the future study app

This notice is about the public prelaunch website and its email list. The study app has a separate privacy notice covering accounts and learning progress. We will make the applicable information available when the product opens.

Changes to this notice

We will update this page if our practices change and revise the date above. We will not use your launch signup for unrelated marketing without asking you first.
