Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 28, 2026

The Everyday Mason respects your privacy. This policy explains what information may be collected when you visit TheEverydayMason.com, how that information is used, and the choices available to you.

Information You Provide

You may voluntarily provide personal information when you:

  • Submit a message through the Contact page
  • Subscribe to From the Trestle Board
  • Communicate with The Everyday Mason by email
  • Request information about a presentation, book, or autographed copy

The information provided may include your name, email address, and anything you choose to include in your message.

This information is used only to respond to your request, provide the communication you requested, maintain appropriate records, and operate The Everyday Mason.

Newsletter Subscriptions

The Everyday Mason uses MailerLite to manage its newsletter subscriber list and send emails to subscribers. MailerLite may collect and process subscriber information using industry-standard technologies that help deliver, monitor, and improve the newsletter.

You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included at the bottom of each newsletter.

You can learn more by reviewing the MailerLite Privacy Policy.

Contact Forms and Email

When you submit the contact form or send an email, the information you provide is used to respond to your message and, when appropriate, maintain a record of the correspondence.

Submitting a contact request does not automatically subscribe you to the newsletter. Newsletter enrollment requires a separate subscription and confirmation process.

Website Security and Technical Information

The website’s hosting, content-delivery, and security services may automatically process limited technical information, such as:

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser and device type
  • Requested pages
  • Date and time of access
  • Referring website
  • Information used to identify malicious traffic or technical problems

This information may be used to maintain website security, prevent abuse, diagnose technical issues, and understand general website performance.

The website uses services provided by DreamHost and Cloudflare. Their handling of information is governed by their respective privacy policies.

Cookies

This website and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for website operation, security, newsletter functions, or basic performance measurement.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some website features function.

External Links

The website contains links to services operated by others, including Books.by, MailerLite, Facebook, Instagram, and other Masonic or informational websites.

When you follow an external link, you leave TheEverydayMason.com. Information collected on the destination website is governed by that website’s privacy policy and practices. The Everyday Mason is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external websites.

The Everyday Mason does not directly collect or process payment information for purchases completed through Books.by or another outside retailer.

How Information Is Shared

The Everyday Mason does not sell or rent personal information.

Information may be shared only with service providers that help operate the website, deliver requested communications, protect the website, or comply with a legal obligation. These providers receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services.

How Long Information Is Retained

Newsletter subscription information is retained until you unsubscribe or request its removal.

Contact messages and related correspondence may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain appropriate records, resolve a concern, or meet legal and administrative obligations.

Technical and security information may be retained according to the practices of the website’s hosting and security providers.

Your Choices and Rights

You may request to:

  • Learn what personal information The Everyday Mason holds about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Unsubscribe from the newsletter
  • Request deletion of information, subject to any administrative, legal, or security reason requiring its retention
