Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 6, 2026
What you send us through our forms
Our bee report, contact, volunteer, newsletter, story, and early-access forms ask for details such as your name, email address, phone number, the location of the bees, and your message. We receive what you type into the form, plus which page of this site you sent it from and the page you visited before that.
When you submit a form, our website sends your details by email through Resend, an email delivery service, to the email inboxes used by our team. We use them to respond to you, to arrange bee removal, to review volunteer applications, and to send the newsletter if you asked for it.
Donations
Donations are processed by Zeffy, a third-party platform, through a form embedded on our donate page. Zeffy handles your payment details and sends your receipt. Zeffy’s own privacy policy covers the information it collects.
Other services our pages load
Our pages load fonts from Google Fonts. The map on our contact page loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap. Your browser connects to these services to fetch those files, which means they can receive your IP address and basic browser details.
Our hosting and network providers may keep standard server logs, which can include IP addresses.
Cookies and analytics
We do not run an analytics or advertising script on this website. Zeffy may use its own cookies in the donation form. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers named above as needed to run these forms and donations, or if the law requires it.
Your choices
To stop receiving newsletter emails, or to ask us to see, correct, or delete what you have sent us, email us at the address below.
Children
This website is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please email us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
When we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page.
