Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 15, 2026
At The 3rd Sidewalk, we believe in transparency. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our services, website, and products.
1. Our Privacy Philosophy
In line with our core value of Autonomy & Privacy, The 3rd Sidewalk is designed as a sanctuary. We do not track you across the web, we do not build advertising profiles, and we do not sell your personal data.
2. Analytics (No Cookie Banners Required)
We use privacy-friendly analytics tools (Fathom Analytics / Plausible Analytics) to measure aggregate website traffic without collecting personally identifiable information (PII) or using tracking cookies. Because no personal data or cross-site identifier is stored, these analytics operate without intrusive consent banners, in full compliance with the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive.
3. Data Collection & Usage
We only collect personal data when you explicitly choose to provide it:
- Contact Inquiries: When you email us or submit a form, we store your contact details strictly to communicate with you.
- Event Ticketing: When purchasing event tickets, your payment data is processed by Stripe. We retain your name and email address to manage event attendance.
4. Data Retention & Your Rights
We store personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the requested purpose or to meet legal obligations. Under the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, or erase your personal data at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us at legal@3rdsidewalk.com.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at legal@3rdsidewalk.com. We are committed to resolving any concerns promptly and transparently.
