The fine print

Privacy Policy

Last updated · 5 July 2026

Being Human is made by a small independent team. We collect as little as we can get away with, we don't sell any of it, and this page explains the rest in plain English.

What we collect

  • Wishlist sign-ups— your email address and, if you give one, a display name. That's the whole list.
  • Accounts — if you create an account (for playtests, invites or achievements) we store your email, display name and sign-in session data.
  • Analytics— we use PostHog, hosted in the EU, to understand how the site is used: pages viewed, buttons clicked, rough region. We don't use advertising trackers and we don't buy or sell audience data.

What we use it for

  • Sending you the updates you signed up for — playtest invites, dev logs, launch news.
  • Running accounts, invite codes and achievements.
  • Understanding what on the site works and what doesn't.

Email is sent through Resend from updates.thisisbeinghuman.com. Every update email includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing always works.

Where it lives

Our servers and database run on Railway, and analytics data is processed by PostHog on EU infrastructure. We don't share your data with anyone beyond these processors, and never for their own marketing.

Cookies

We set a session cookie if you sign in, and analytics cookies to tell repeat visits apart. No third-party advertising cookies, ever.

How long we keep it

Wishlist and account data is kept until you ask us to remove it or the project winds down. Unsubscribed addresses are kept only on a suppression list so we don't email you again by mistake.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it entirely. Email hello@thisisbeinghuman.com and a human will sort it out — usually within a few days.

Children

The wishlist and accounts aren't intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has signed up, get in touch and we'll remove the data.

Changes

If this policy changes in any way that matters, we'll note it here and update the date at the top. Continued use of the site after a change means the new version applies.
