COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTATION
Privacy Policy
Effective: March 2026
This privacy policy explains how Fired to Freedom ("we," "us," or "the one-person operation pretending to be a corporation") collects and uses information when you visit firedtofreedom.com.
Information We Collect
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with this site. This collects standard internet log information and visitor behavior data, including:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page
- Referring website or search engine
- Approximate geographic location (country/city level)
- Device type, browser, and operating system
This data is aggregated and anonymized. We cannot identify you personally from it. We use this information to understand which articles are actually worth writing versus which ones we published at 2 AM out of spite.
Cookies
Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors. These are small text files stored on your device. You can control cookie behavior through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or delete them after each session.
Affiliate Links & Third-Party Services
Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. These third-party services have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.
We only recommend products and services we actually use or believe in. Nobody is paying us enough to compromise what little integrity a blog called "Fired to Freedom" can claim.
External Links
This site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. Once you leave our site, you're on your own — kind of like getting fired, but with fewer exit interviews.
Email & Contact
If you contact us via email, we'll use your information only to respond to your inquiry. We won't add you to any mailing lists, sell your data, or send you unsolicited performance reviews.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
- Clear your cookies at any time through your browser settings
- Request information about what data we hold (spoiler: almost nothing)
- Ask us to delete any personal data we may have
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at anyone under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We won't send a company-wide memo about it.

THE FINE PRINT
This policy exists because the internet requires it, not because we're doing anything shady. We're a blog about quitting the rat race, not a data broker.
