Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 5, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how berndpulch.org handles information when visitors browse the website, contact the publisher, request database access, or follow external support and social links.
Responsible operator
The website identifies Bernd Pulch as its publisher and operator. The About page also refers to General Global Media IBC as an operating entity.
Contact us to provide or confirm these details: Please confirm the legally responsible entity, postal address, jurisdiction, registration details, VAT details where applicable, and the final privacy contact. The website currently publishes the contact address leakthetruth@berndpulch.org.
Hosting and server data
berndpulch.org is hosted on WordPress.com. WordPress.com and its infrastructure providers may process technical request data such as IP address, browser information, timestamps, device information, security logs and pages requested. The precise retention periods and controller/processor allocation depend on the applicable WordPress.com services and settings.
Cookies and analytics
The website may use cookies or similar technologies required for security, session handling, preferences, embedded media, ratings, sharing tools or other WordPress.com functionality. No separate analytics provider has been verified in this Phase 2 audit. If analytics, advertising or additional tracking is activated, this policy must be updated before activation.
Contact forms and email
If you use a contact form or email link, the submitted name, email address, message and any information you choose to provide may be processed to respond to your request, investigate a tip, manage support, or handle a database-access request. Do not send passwords, payment credentials or highly sensitive personal information through an ordinary contact form.
Social links, embeds and external services
The website links to YouTube, X, Telegram, Patreon and other external resources. When you follow an external link or load an embedded third-party service, that provider may process information under its own privacy terms. The website does not control those external services.
Newsletter and support
The Intelligence Brief is currently presented as a request/contact flow and has not been connected to a verified newsletter provider in this Phase 2 implementation. Patreon and other support services may process account, payment and membership information directly under their own policies.
Database access requests
Database-access requests are reviewed manually. Any email address, WordPress account information, proof of support, correspondence and access decision may be processed for the purpose of reviewing and administering access. No automatic Patreon or payment verification is active.
Retention, security and international transfers
Information should be retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the stated purpose, legal obligations, security and dispute handling. The website uses hosting and external services that may involve international data transfers. Exact retention periods, transfer mechanisms and security controls require confirmation from the responsible operator and the relevant providers.
Your rights and deletion requests
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, and to withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. Send a request to leakthetruth@berndpulch.org. The operator may need to verify your identity before responding.
Contact us to provide or confirm these details: Confirm the applicable jurisdiction, supervisory authority, legal bases, retention schedule, data-protection contact and complaint procedure before relying on this page as a final jurisdiction-specific legal notice.
Updates
This policy should be reviewed whenever hosting, analytics, newsletter, membership, payment, advertising, embedded services or database-access processes change.
