Privacy policy
Effective and last updated November 15, 2026. Published by Quietlathe LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company.
Who we are
Quietlathe LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company, runs this site and the Quietlathe Client Desk templates ("we", "us"). Mailing address: 2800 E. Enterprise Ave Ste 333, Appleton, WI 54913. Contact for anything in this policy: ops@quietlathe.com.
What we collect
- Site visits. This site is hosted on Cloudflare (Pages, Functions and a D1 database). To serve and protect the site, Cloudflare processes request data such as your IP address and browser user agent. We do not run analytics tools on this site.
- The early-access list. If you submit your email in an early-access form we store: the product (Client Desk), your email address, the plan you picked if the form offers one, the page you were on, a timestamp, and a one-way hash of your IP address that we use only for spam rate limits. We do not store your raw IP address in the list.
- Email you send us. If you write to ops@quietlathe.com, we keep the message and our reply so we can help you.
- Free download. The free version is a zip file you download directly. We do not ask for anything to download it.
- Later, when checkout opens. We expect to collect your name or email, billing country and order details. Payments will be processed by Stripe. We will not see or store full card numbers. We will update this policy before checkout opens.
The templates themselves are files you import into your own Notion workspace. We cannot see anything you put in them, and nothing you type into Notion is sent to us.
Why we use it
- To run and protect the site (Cloudflare processing, spam limits).
- To email early-access subscribers once, when checkout opens. No emails are sent now.
- To answer your messages and handle requests under this policy.
- Later: to deliver purchases, handle refunds, keep tax and accounting records, and prevent fraud.
We never sell the early-access list or share it with anyone for their own use.
Who else handles data
- Cloudflare, Inc. hosts the site and the database that holds the early-access list. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
- Stripe, Inc. is planned as the payment processor once checkout opens. It is not live yet. See Stripe's privacy policy.
- Notion Labs, Inc. is where you use the templates. Your use of Notion is between you and Notion. We are not affiliated with Notion.
- Service providers that help us run the business, such as an email delivery service for the one launch email, under terms that limit what they can do with the data. We will name any such provider here before we use it.
- Authorities or other parties where the law requires it.
The site has no ads, no social media pixels and no AI features.
Cookies and local storage
This site does not set cookies and does not use localStorage or sessionStorage. Cloudflare may use security-related technical measures when it serves the site. If we add cookies or similar tools later, we will list them here first.
How long we keep it
Early-access emails stay on the list until we have sent the launch email and for up to 12 months after, unless you ask us to remove you sooner. Support emails are kept for up to 3 years. Order and tax records, once they exist, are kept as long as the law requires. Cloudflare keeps its own logs under its own retention rules.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS and the list is stored in a Cloudflare database that only we can read. We take reasonable steps to protect it, but no system is perfectly secure.
Your California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA)
If you live in California you can ask us to: tell you what personal information we have collected about you and how we use it (right to know); delete it; correct it; and not discriminate against you for using these rights. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of. We do not knowingly use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you.
To make a request, email ops@quietlathe.com from the address you used on the site. We verify requests by matching the email address involved, and may ask you to reply to a confirmation email. An authorized agent may make a request for you with your written permission. We respond within 45 days, and tell you if we need more time. Residents of other US states with similar laws can use the same process.
Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland
Quietlathe LLC (2800 E. Enterprise Ave Ste 333, Appleton, WI 54913, ops@quietlathe.com) is the controller of the personal data described above. Our lawful bases: your consent when you join the early-access list (you can withdraw it any time by emailing us); our legitimate interests in running and securing the site and answering you; and, later, performance of a contract and legal obligations for orders. You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, a portable copy, and you can object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may complain to your local data protection authority. Our servers and providers are mainly in the United States, so your data is transferred there. Where required, we rely on the safeguards our providers offer, such as standard contractual clauses.
Children
The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. In the EEA and UK we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16 without parental consent. If you think a child has joined the list, email us and we will delete the entry.
Changes
If we change this policy we will post the new version here with a new date. If a change is significant, such as when checkout opens, we will say so on the site and in the launch email.
