Hayabusa Research (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we handle personal information through our website, memberships, newsletters, and related communications.

Information We Collect

When you subscribe, create an account, join a waitlist, or contact us, we may receive your name, email address, membership status, communication preferences, and information you voluntarily provide.

Our website and service providers may also process technical information, including IP addresses, browser and device details, pages viewed, referring pages, and account activity.

We record newsletter opens and link clicks to understand readership. We also track which referral sources and posts lead to member signups. Outbound links may include tags that help destination websites identify traffic from our publication.

How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • deliver the publications and updates you request;
  • manage accounts, subscriptions, and waitlist preferences;
  • respond to inquiries;
  • operate, secure, and improve our services;
  • understand readership and content engagement; and
  • meet legal obligations and protect our users and publication.

We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information

Hayabusa Research does not sell your personal information.

We do not provide subscriber information to advertisers in exchange for payment.

Email Communications

Subscribers may receive research and publication updates according to their preferences. If you join the Navigator waitlist, we use that registration to communicate about its availability.

You can unsubscribe from newsletters using the link included in those emails. Unsubscribing does not necessarily delete your member account.

Necessary transactional messages, such as requested sign-in links, signup confirmations, and security notices, may still be sent.

Service Providers and Information Sharing

We use service providers for website hosting, membership management, email delivery, analytics, security, and related operations. These providers process information as needed to deliver their services.

Our publication runs on Ghost(Pro). Information about Ghost’s handling of personal data is available in its Privacy Policy.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect legal rights, investigate abuse, or safeguard our services and users.

Service providers may process or store information outside your state or country.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our site and service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for account sessions, essential functionality, security, and usage measurement.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect sign-in or other site functions.

Data Retention and Security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain required records, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect security.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.
