The chart and the card
When you read a chart, the name, species and date go into the page address after the # sign, so you can share or bookmark it. Browsers never send that part of an address to a server, and the calculation runs in your browser (asking for the free card or poster is the one exception, see below). If you type where your pet was born, only the letters you type are sent to our server, which answers with matching towns from the GeoNames list; they are not stored. The photo you add is read by your browser to draw the card. It is never uploaded to us or anyone else. It is kept in your browser’s session storage until you close the tab.
The chart form also has an optional email box. Leave it empty and nothing about you is sent. If you add your email and tick the weekly horoscope or birthday reminders, your browser sends our server your email, your pet’s name, species, the date you gave and the kind of date, the boxes you ticked with their wording and version, and a note that it came from the chart form. That is the same sign up as below, and it never goes into the page address. Where your pet was born, the time zone and the photo still stay on your device.
Email sign ups
If you sign up for reminders or the weekly horoscope, we store your email address, your pet’s name, species, birthday (or the date you gave), the kind of date, the lists you chose, and the time, version and wording of each consent, plus a scrambled fingerprint of your internet address that only lets us limit how many sign ups come from one place. We use it only to send what you asked for. You are on the list as soon as you sign up; there is no confirmation email. We need the date even for the weekly horoscope alone, because your pet’s sign is worked out from it.
The weekly horoscope box includes the odd offer from us and our partners, and its wording says so. At most one weekly in three may carry one pick: one of our own products, labeled From us, or a partner’s, labeled Partner with a line saying it is an affiliate link. Birthday reminders never carry an offer. If you signed up for the weekly earlier, when offers had a box of their own, and left that box unticked, your weekly never carries one.
Every email has a one click unsubscribe link at the bottom, which stops every email to that address, offers included. To have your details deleted entirely, email contact@signsandskies.com from the address you signed up with.
The free card and poster
Our chart card and poster are free when you join our email list. When you pick one, type your email and tick the box, your browser sends our server your email, your pet’s name, species, the date you gave and its kind, the time zone, the Sun and Moon signs, the print you picked (the card, or the poster in the Night or Light look), and the wording and version of the box. The photo is never sent. Without the tick nothing is sent and there is no print, because the files come by email.
We keep two things. The sign up, as above: your email, your pet’s name, species, date and its kind and Sun sign, the weekly horoscope list and your consent to the odd offer, with its time, wording and version and a note that it came from the free print, until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. And the print: which one you picked and when, with your pet’s details for drawing the files. We delete those details after 30 days; which print and when stay, with nothing else, so we can count which prints people choose.
We then email you a link to your files. The link holds only a random code after the # sign, which browsers never send to a server; the page it opens posts that code to our server, which keeps only a scrambled fingerprint of it. You are on the list from the moment you send the form, and for 24 hours from when we sent it the page gets your pet’s details back and draws the files in your browser. After that the page can email a fresh link to the same address, which replaces the old one; we send at most a few. The photo is used only on the device where you added it.
From then on you get your pet’s horoscope for the week ahead every Monday, and now and then an email with a product or offer we recommend (today that is the odd pick in the weekly, as above). One click on Unsubscribe in any email stops them all, and links to your prints stop opening.
Who handles the data
Sign ups are stored in a hosted database and emails are sent through an email delivery service, both acting on our behalf. We do not sell or share your details.
Shop and partner links
Some pages link to Amazon, to Petlibro feeders through the MaxBounty affiliate network, and to PsychicOz pet psychics, and we may earn a commission from them (see the disclosure). Clicking one takes you to a site we do not run, and its own privacy policy applies from then on.
- Amazon links go straight to the Amazon store for your country with our Amazon Associates tag in the address. Amazon may set cookies so that a purchase is credited to us.
- The Petlibro link passes through a MaxBounty tracking link first, which records the click and may set a cookie, then forwards you to Petlibro, which may set its own.
- PsychicOz links carry our affiliate id in the address, and PsychicOz may set a cookie so that a reading you book is credited to us.
Which Amazon store you see, and whether the Petlibro line shows, is worked out in your browser from its time zone, or from its language setting when the time zone names no place. Nothing about it is sent to us.
Partners report clicks, sales and commissions to us. We do not ask them for your personal details, and we never use a partner report to contact you or add you to our emails.
Cookies and analytics
The site sets no advertising cookies. If you tap an older confirmation link from one of our emails, one cookie carries your pet’s name, species, sign, date and lists to the confirmation page for up to ten minutes, and that page deletes it as soon as it has read it. The site counts page views with a privacy friendly analytics service from our host that sets no cookies, does not identify you, and records only which page was viewed, never what is in its address after the page name. It remembers small conveniences, like your last chart, in your own browser.
