Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 3, 2026

The Lesser Mortals ("we," "us," or "our") operates thelessermortals.com. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and what rights you have over it. We keep things simple because we believe in transparency — and because we're a band, not a data company.

1. What We Collect

We collect the minimum data necessary to run the site and stay in touch with people who want to hear from us.

Email address and name — voluntarily submitted through our mailing list signup form, so we can send you updates about new music, behind-the-scenes content, and band news.
Anonymous analytics data — page views, referral sources, browser type, and country. We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-first analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not track individuals, and is fully GDPR-compliant without requiring consent.
Form submissions — if you write to us through the contact form (press inquiries, collaboration requests, fan messages), we receive the information you choose to share.

2. What We Don't Collect

We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties.
We do not run retargeting ads or pixel tracking.
We do not collect payment information (we don't sell anything on this site).

3. Third-Party Services

Our site integrates with the following third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy:

Plausible Analytics — privacy-first, cookie-free web analytics. Data policy
YouTube — embedded video players. Google Privacy Policy
Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, SoundCloud — links to streaming platforms. Clicking these takes you to their sites, governed by their own privacy policies.
Google Fonts — web fonts loaded from Google's CDN. Google Fonts privacy

4. Email Communications

If you sign up for our mailing list, you'll receive occasional emails about new releases, behind-the-scenes updates, and band news. We will never send more than 2-3 emails per month.

Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe link.
We will never share your email address with anyone.
You can request deletion of your data at any time by emailing us.

5. Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)

Regardless of where you live, you have the following rights:

Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Correction — request correction of inaccurate data.
Deletion — request deletion of your personal data ("right to be forgotten").
Portability — request your data in a machine-readable format.
Objection — object to processing of your data for specific purposes.
Withdraw consent — unsubscribe from emails at any time via the link in every email, or by contacting us directly.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at lessermortals3@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Data Retention

We retain your email address for as long as you remain subscribed to our mailing list. If you unsubscribe, your data is deleted within 30 days. Anonymous analytics data is retained indefinitely as it cannot be linked to any individual.

7. Children's Privacy

Our site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We won't reduce your rights under this policy without your explicit consent.
