Who runs this site

Think In Loops is run by me, Jerry Ralhan, as one person in Australia. There's no company behind it and no team. If you want to talk to someone about your information, you're talking to me, at hello@thinkinloops.ai.

What I collect

Your first name and your email address, and only if you type them into the form on this site.

Right now that's all I ask for. The first name is only so the emails can open with your name instead of a blank space. No business details, no phone number, and there's no account to create. If that changes later, say I run a paid workshop or open a members' area, I'll need more than a name and an email address to make it work. I'll ask for it on the form at the time, say what it's for, and update this page at the same time I start collecting anything new. Nothing gets collected quietly.

This site doesn't set cookies today, which is why there's no banner to click, and I've checked the pages myself to be sure of that. Most sites ask you to approve cookies because they're running ad networks, Google Analytics, embedded video, chat widgets or logins, and every one of those puts a small file on your device so you can be recognised later. This site does none of that. It's a handful of plain pages and a form, so there's nothing to consent to. I don't run visitor analytics either, so I genuinely can't tell you how many people have read this page. Two things could change that: Cloudflare, who serve the site, can set one of their own if they ever have to step in during an attack, and anything I add later, a checkout or a login, would likely need one. If that happens you'll get the banner and this page will say so at the same time.

The emails are the one exception, and you should know about it before you subscribe. Every email I send carries a small invisible image. When your email app loads that image, it tells me the message was opened and roughly when, along with the technical details your app hands over as it fetches the image, which can include your approximate location and which email app you used. That sits against your address in my MailerLite account, so over time it does build up a record of which emails you opened. MailerLite does this by default and it's how nearly every email list works. I look at it for one reason: to check the download email is actually landing in inboxes instead of disappearing into spam folders. If you'd rather not send that signal, set your email app to stop loading images automatically and it stops working, and the emails will still read fine.

What a visit leaves behind, before you type anything

I don't collect anything from you just for reading this page. But a couple of things happen anyway, purely because the site is on the internet, and you should know about them before you decide whether to fill in the form.

Cloudflare serve every page here. Your request goes through them before it reaches my files, so they see your IP address, roughly where in the world you are, which page you asked for and what browser you used. They keep that in their own logs for their own reasons: stopping attacks, and loading the site quickly from somewhere near you. I don't get a report out of it, I can't look you up in it, and it isn't a visitor list I can read. It's the plumbing of putting a site on the internet, and every site you have ever visited has an equivalent.

There's a smaller second one, also Cloudflare. Modern browsers can report back when a page fails to load: a dropped connection, a certificate problem, that sort of thing. This site has that switched on, and those reports go to Cloudflare, not to me. It only fires when something breaks, never on a normal visit, and what it carries is technical detail about the connection rather than anything about you.

The form does something worth spelling out too. When you type your details in and hit submit, your browser sends them straight to MailerLite rather than to me first. So at that moment MailerLite sees your IP address and your browser details alongside what you typed. That happens whether I want it to or not, because that's how the form is built, and it means MailerLite holds a little more about you than the email address on its own. It sits under the same arrangement as the rest of the list, which is further down this page.

What I do with it

Two things:

• Email you the link to download the workspace.
• Send you occasional follow-up emails about Think In Loops: setup tips, what's changed, and when the community opens.

That's the lot. I don't sell your email address and I don't hand it to anyone else for their own marketing.

Why I'm allowed to

Because you said yes. You ticked the box and submitted the form, and you can take that back at any time, as easily as you gave it. Nothing about the download depends on you staying subscribed.

Splitting hairs for a moment, because it matters: sending you the file is just me doing the thing you asked me to do. The occasional follow-up emails after it are the part that rests on your permission, and unsubscribing takes that permission back. If European privacy rules (the GDPR) apply to you, that permission is what's called consent, and it's the only basis I rely on anywhere.

Who else sees it

Right now, MailerLite. That's it. MailerLite is the email service I use to store the list and send the emails. Your address sits in my MailerLite account and goes nowhere else.

If I later add another tool that would touch your details, a payment provider or a booking system for a paid workshop, say, I'll name it on this page as soon as it starts, not after. What won't change is the rest of it: I don't sell your email address and I don't hand it to anyone else for their own marketing.

The only other exception is the boring legal one: if I were ever legally required to hand something over, I would have to.

Where your email address actually goes

Overseas, and you should know that before you hand it over.

• MailerLite says that where the account holder is outside the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, the service is provided by MailerLite, Inc. in the United States, and subscriber data is transferred there.
• I'm in Australia, so that's the arrangement that applies to this list, and you should assume your email address is stored and processed in the United States.
• MailerLite handles your email address on my instructions, not for its own purposes, and there is a data processing agreement covering that.
• It takes effect automatically when an account holder accepts MailerLite's terms of use, so it is in place for this list.
• That agreement, MailerLite's terms, and the transfer mechanisms it relies on for data coming from Europe are all published at mailerlite.com/legal.
• If where your data sits matters to you, read it before you subscribe.

Cloudflare are the other overseas handler, and they're a different thing from MailerLite. They never see your email address. What they see is the request details above, handled on whichever of their machines is nearest you, which may be in Australia and may not. Cloudflare as a company sits under United States law. It's information about you leaving the country, so it belongs on this page even though it isn't the part most people mean when they ask where their data goes.

How long I keep it

For as long as you're on the list. There's no fixed expiry date, because the list is a list of people who want to hear from me, and you decide when that stops being true. If you've gone quiet for a long stretch, a year or two of not opening anything, I'll check whether you still want to hear from me rather than just keep going.

When you unsubscribe, MailerLite keeps a record marking you as unsubscribed. That record is what stops you being emailed again if you later end up on a list some other way. If you'd rather be wiped entirely instead, email me and I'll delete you outright.

Getting a copy, fixing it, or getting rid of it

Email me at hello@thinkinloops.ai and ask. You can ask me to:

• Tell you what I hold about you. It will be your first name and email address, the date you subscribed, the record of which of my emails you opened and when, and the IP address and browser details MailerLite recorded when you signed up.
• Correct it, if you gave me an address with a typo in it.
• Delete it completely.
• Give you a copy in a format you can take somewhere else.
• Pause me using it while we sort something out, instead of deleting it outright.
• Object to how I'm using it. There's one limit here and I'd rather you knew it before you ask: the record of which of my emails you opened sits inside MailerLite and I can't pull it out on its own. If you don't want me holding it, the only thing I can do is delete your record completely, and I'll do that the day you ask. If you'd rather stay on the list, set your email app to stop loading images and the record stops growing from that day on.

I'll do it, and I'll aim to have it done within a few days. I won't charge you and I won't ask you to prove anything beyond being able to reply from the address in question.

Unsubscribing

Every email I send has an unsubscribe link at the bottom, and it works in one click. No login and no fee. Australian law gives me five business days to action it and I'd expect it to be instant, because MailerLite handles it automatically.

Every email also says plainly that it's from me and how to reach me. If one ever doesn't, that email isn't from me.

Under 18s

This is built for people running a practice, so it's meant for adults. Don't subscribe if you're under 18. I don't knowingly hold anything belonging to anyone younger, and nothing on this site is aimed at children. If you're a parent and you think your child has put their address on my list, email me and I'll delete it the same day, no questions asked.

Keeping it safe

Your email address lives in MailerLite, which is a company whose job is running email lists, not in a spreadsheet on my laptop. My account is protected with a strong, unique password and two-factor authentication. The site itself is served over HTTPS, so what you type into the form is encrypted on the way.

I can't promise nothing will ever go wrong, and nobody running a website can. What I can say is that the amount of information at stake is an email address and a record of which emails you opened, and I've kept it that small on purpose.

If you're unhappy

Email me first, at hello@thinkinloops.ai. Tell me what the problem is. I'll reply, and I'll aim to sort it out within 30 days. It's me reading the inbox, not a support queue, so you'll get a real answer from a person.

If that doesn't fix it, you can take it to a regulator:

• In Australia, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner, at oaic.gov.au. Being a sole trader under their size threshold, I may sit outside their formal powers, but they'll still tell you whether I've done the wrong thing.
• In the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office, at ico.org.uk.
• In the EU, your own country's data protection authority.

You don't have to come to me first. That's just usually faster.

Changes to this page

If what I do with your email address changes, this page changes, and the date at the bottom changes with it. Check that date if you want to know whether anything has moved since you subscribed. This page is free to read, with nothing to sign up for and nothing hidden behind a form.

Last updated 31 July 2026.

What has changed, and when

Every change to this page gets a line here, so you can see what it said when you subscribed rather than taking the date on trust.

• 31 July 2026. Added the first name to what I collect, after the signup form started asking for it. Added what a visit leaves behind before you touch the form: Cloudflare serving the pages, the browser error reports, and the form posting your details straight to MailerLite. Added Cloudflare to the overseas section, added the IP address to what I hold about you, added an under-18s position and the right to object to how I use it, including what I can and can't remove on its own.
• 30 July 2026. First published.

The commitment behind all this: if I start collecting something new, this page says so the same day it starts, not afterwards.
