When you visit the site, Ghost's built-in analytics collect first-party, cookie-free data to understand how visitors interact with content. This includes approximate geographic location derived from IP addresses, pages visited, and — for logged-in members — which posts are viewed. This data is never shared with third parties and is stored in EU servers.

We do not collect sensitive personal information, payment data, or any information beyond what is described above.

How We Use Your Information

Your name and email address are used exclusively to:

Send you newsletters and content updates from The Benavit. Notify you of any important changes to this site or its policies.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
