Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 August 2026

This page explains what Solo Dad Survival collects about you, why, and what you can do about it. It is written in plain English on purpose. If anything here is unclear, email alex@solodadsurvival.com and ask.

Who we are

Solo Dad Survival is a trading name of Drichaleon Ltd, a company registered in New Zealand. Drichaleon Ltd is the agency responsible for the personal information described below under the Privacy Act 2020.

What we collect, and why

If you ask for the free Survival Kit

We collect your first name and your email address. We use them to send you the kit — five short emails over roughly two weeks — and occasional emails after that when there is something worth saying.

You tick a box to agree to this before anything is sent, and every email has an unsubscribe link. Our email provider, Sendfox, holds this list and sends the messages.

If you buy The Rebuild

Payment is taken by Stripe. You enter your card details on Stripe’s own secure checkout page — they never pass through this website, and we never see or store them.

Once a payment succeeds we keep a record of the purchase: your name, your email address, what you bought, the date, and Stripe’s reference for the transaction. We use that to send you your download and to keep the business records we are legally required to keep.

When you browse the site

We use SiteBehaviour to understand how people use the site — which pages get read, where people arrive from, where they leave. It is set up in a mode that does not store anything on your device and does not identify you.

It works out a rough, anonymous fingerprint from things like your screen size, browser and timezone, scrambled with a key that changes every 24 hours. That means we can count visits without knowing who you are, and we cannot follow you across other websites.

If we ever switch it to a mode that does store something in your browser, the site will ask your permission first and will not load it unless you agree.

Spam protection on the free kit form

The free kit form is protected by Google reCAPTCHA, which tells real people apart from automated signups. It sets its own cookies and sends some technical information to Google. This applies only to that one form, and only because without it the form gets abused.

Cookies and similar storage

We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. What the site may store:

  • Your analytics choice — only set if we have asked you, and only to remember your answer so we do not ask again.
  • A settings safety net — a marker used to make sure analytics never stores anything on your device without asking, even if a setting is changed by mistake.
  • Google reCAPTCHA cookies — on the free kit page only, as described above.

Who else sees your information

We do not sell your information, and we do not give it to anyone for their own marketing. We use these providers to run the site, and your information is stored and processed on their systems, which are located outside New Zealand:

  • Stripe — payments
  • Sendfox — the mailing list and the kit delivery emails
  • SiteBehaviour — website analytics
  • Google — reCAPTCHA spam protection on the free kit form

We may also disclose information if the law requires it.

How long we keep it

  • Mailing list — until you unsubscribe, after which you are removed from the list.
  • Purchase records — seven years. New Zealand tax law requires business records to be kept for that long, so we cannot delete a purchase record before then even if you ask.
  • Analytics — no record that identifies you is created in the first place.

Your rights

Under the Privacy Act 2020 you can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask for a copy of it, and ask us to correct it if it is wrong. Email alex@solodadsurvival.com and we will respond as soon as we reasonably can, and within 20 working days.

You can unsubscribe from emails at any time using the link in any email we send. You do not need to give a reason.

If you are not happy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner at privacy.org.nz.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle personal information, we will update this page and the date at the top of it.
