How we handle your data.

Last updated · July 2026

Birth details are personal. Here is exactly what we collect, what we do with it, and what we will never do with it, in plain language.

What we collect

Your email address.
For each partner: date of birth, time of birth (only if you know it), and place of birth. First names are optional.
Your two multiple-choice answers about the relationship (what you keep circling, how long you've been together), which slant what the reading emphasizes.
Your consent choices and when you made them.

Nothing is transmitted while you fill in the form. Your details leave your device only when you press "Continue" on the delivery step, after ticking consent.

What we use it for

One thing: your birth details are used to cast your two charts and prepare your reading, which we then email to you. A person reviews and signs off on every reading before it's sent, and sees your details for exactly that reason. If you ticked the optional box, we may also send you an occasional note, such as a seasonal reading or a gift idea. That's it.

Payment

The reading costs $79, one-time. Payment happens on Stripe's own pages; we never see or store your card details. Stripe sends us your email address and a payment confirmation so we can match your payment to your reading. The receipt comes from Meridian Compass LLC.

What we never do

We never sell your data or share it with advertisers.
We never publish anything from your reading.
Sample pages on our site use demo names, never real customers.

How long we keep it

Birth details are kept only while your reading is being prepared and are deleted after delivery. Your email stays on our list only if you opted into notes; otherwise it's used solely to deliver your reading.

Your partner's rights

Your partner's birth details are theirs. We ask you to confirm you have their permission before submitting, we name them as a data subject here, and either of you can have their details (or the whole reading) erased at any time with one email. No questions, no friction.

Who touches the data

We keep the set of services small: Vercel hosts the site and the intake function, Resend delivers our email, and Stripe handles payment. The person who checks and signs off on your reading sees your details; that is the point of the sign-off. We don't run advertising trackers or analytics cookies on this site.

Questions or erasure

Email hello@ourlifebydesign.co and a real person answers. Erasure requests are honored promptly and confirmed by reply.
